I‘ve been listening to The Lightbringer Series by Brent Weeks on Audible but I‘ve just finished The Blood Mirror. I have a week until the next book comes out so I guess now is a perfect time to listen to some novellas that I‘ve been hoarding on Audible. I really enjoyed Into the Drowning Deep. So far, this prequel is fine.
pickFinished Rolling in the Deep and started Into the Drowning Deep in audio for my drives to and from PA.
I've read both books already, but am really enjoying them now in audio. However, the narrator for each book pronounced the ship's name "Atargatis" differently. It's a bit annoying.

A three hour car ride deserves some killer mermaids.#audiodriving

pickFinished this prequel to Into the Drowning Deep. It is just as enjoyable! There is a great atmosphere and sense of tension that is created. I LOVE these mermaids they are vicious and believable as a natural evolution/adaptation. Which helps to make it creepier!
So there's a prequel to “Into the Drowning Deep“ by Mira Grant🧜🏼♀️🦈🌊
*Throws it into the TBR pile*
pickRolling In The Deep by Mira Grant is a horror novella that really packs a punch! This tale takes place before the full length novel, Into the Drowning Deep.

I cannot contain my excitement that this is becoming a movie.

pickA little disturbing. I hope no killer mermaids are in my dreams tonight.
pickWho doesn‘t love killer mermaids?! 🧜🏻♀️ I loved this prequel to Into the Drowning Deep! It started off a little slow and then I had a hard time putting it down.
OMG 😂 Thank you so much @Literary_Siren ! I‘ve been meaning to read this one for SO long so I‘m definitely going to be picking it up ASAP! #KindLitsy
pickExcellent lead up to Into the Drowning Deep! Killer mermaids are definitely my jam!
I don't usually read horror but when I do (1) it's something totally unnerving and maybe completely messed up, and/or (2) I really love the author. Two for two this time around!
pickFast and fun prequel to Into the Drowning Deep. Grant makes mermaids absolutely TERRIFYING!!!
“I‘m going to go immerse myself in water and read about killer mermaids.” —an actual thing I just said 😳🧜🏻♀️🛳⚓️❗️☠️
This book centers around a documentary crew that goes on an ocean #journey to try and capture footage of mermaids. What they end up finding out in the water is absolutely nothing like what they expected. 🧜♀️ #readingresolutions
This has been a very frustrating couple of weeks for me, reading wise. Reading slumps suck.
Mira Grant's Newflesh series is my favorite series of all-time, but I haven't liked anything else I've tried by her (as Grant or as Seanan McGuire). But, this sounds unique and it's a novella. Hopefully it will not disappoint.

pickThis one was short, but fun! I can‘t wait to read the next one!
pickSo I just read the prequel, a quick novella, to the book for my #HorrorPostalBookClub, just last night: ‘Rolling In The Deep‘ by #MiraGrant! My dastardly group of readers helped narrow down my choices, and we are picking killer mermaids. ‘Rolling in The Deep‘ gives you a little ‘bloody‘ taste of what is to come in ‘Into The Drowning Deep‘, and gives some background to the novel. Plus I had to show everyone the KILLER journal I‘ve picked out! 💀
pickSo I knew this novella was about killer mermaids, and yet the creepy factor still caught me off guard. Can't wait to start Into the Drowning Deep! 🌊🦈💦

Seanan McGuire is my favorite author. She's a queer woman who strives to reflect real world people in her stories. Every Heart a Doorway and Down Among the Sticks and Bones feature asexual, trans* and lesbian characters. Rolling in the Deep (written as her horror alter ego Mira Grant) gives you dialogue in ASL and people with disabilities. The October Daye series is filled with strong women of all races and identities. #24in48 #ownvoices
pickVery quick read that I loved! Really like Mira Grant's Newsflesh series so when this floated by my radar I snapped it up. It is not great literature but it is fun, the characters actually were just as I imagined a documentary crew of filmmakers and scientists would be. I am looking forward to the next installment in November! And for the record: this is just pure fun so don't expect a Nobel prize winner! #litsypartyofone
pickWhat if mermaids were real and were monsters? Answer: we'd try to film them for a docu-drama.
Found an ebook of this after some hunting -- it's not really available in the UK. Starting off #boutofbooks well, I feel! And hey, I have an epic ereader case.
pickI love this cover so so so much. The story is pretty amazing, too. All the characters are so well done, despite the short length of the novella. Mermaids! Diverse characters! So fun.
pickI was able to start and finish this short, creepy book today (in between a lot of cleaning and organizing). This book has you thinking about where the mythology of mermaids did come from, everything from "pretty girls with fins" to sirens that lure men to their death. Either way, the depths of the ocean can be a scary and unknown thing - most likely with many things with sharp, point teeth.
pickThis book. This book made me very glad that my mattress has no gap between it and the floor (and yet I still didn't let my legs hang off the edge while I read this, surrounded by land, with no major body of water for miles and miles.) I love Mira Grant. I have read and will read anything she puts out. This was a little scarier (to me) than her other books, but I loved it.
