panReally great premise, but entirely forgettable 🤷🏻♀️
Maybe it didn‘t hit right cos I listened to it rather than read it. The narrator was fine - it wasn‘t that. But nothing really stuck from this.
I‘ll give McMahon another chance - I‘ve liked other works by her. But this one did nothing for me.
Omg @Captivatedbybooks I LOVE my goodies!! I‘m excited about your suggestion. YA horror set in Puerto Rico with mysterious murders sounds fantastic! The Red Knot from my TBR seems great for the coming season. Isolated Alaskan island, cults, and murder! My favorite candies Sour Patch Kids and Almond Joy plus Popsicle sour candy which I‘ve never seen before! I LOVE the book sleeve, the spider and stickers are so CUTE!! #AHRS2025 #AllHallowsReadSwap
🥹 I finally have a special edition of this duology! When I started collecting SEs, this set was no longer available—unless you bought from resellers, which were so expensive! Luckily, I managed to get a set from Illumicrate‘s recent Books with Baggage (aka Damaged Editions). But the “damage”? Not an issue at all! 💙❤️
pickBeautiful artwork and such a cute story! Poor Gustavo is shy and doesn't know what to do. He decides to invite everyone to a violin concert. Will anyone show up? Will he make friends? Only one way to find out... read the book!
pickSome kind of horrible creature is loose in Pikesville Tennessee. Farm animals are being slaughtered and then children begin disappearing.
Ten-year-old Jeb Sweeney has seen the beast and knows what the deal is. When the lazy sheriff ignores his pleas for help, he places the burden on his own shoulders. He journeys deep into neighboring Fear County to seek out help and possibly magic to slay this beast.
I‘m a vampire girl, what can I say? 3/5 of these are about vamps. I‘m currently reading another book, Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil with @MsRadioSilence and I would also add it to this list if I were done with it! So, dear reader, we close the onslaught of recs with monsters and mayhem. All horror, of course. #hauntedshelf #blackcatcrew #linehanloves

pickGreat encyclopedia of cryptozoology!
Getting ready to take the kittens to get adopted (NOT ready 😭) so I gave them a bath. They were not amused whatsoever but it wasn‘t as bad as I thought it‘d be. Left to right: Butterbean, Cera, Bear & Nougat.

pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This is how body horror mixed with folk horror is done people!!! All the feels: gross, shocking, tender, sad and lovely. A wonderful range of emotions. I love Murial and her creature feature!
