Clown in a Cornfield | 
pickI admit, I didn‘t pay much attention to the synopsis. But that worked in the books favor for me. I thought the book was going to be one way, but then ended up a more interesting “Well. That‘s not at all what I expected.” Even if it‘s not for my age demographic. I can‘t help but root for the main characters and her friends. So yeah. Give this a try! and remember, you always have a friend in Frendo.
The new trailer for the Clown in a Cornfield movie is on YouTube 🤡🔪🪓

So when someone plans a barn party in the middle of a cornfield, everyone at school plans to go: all the students, and some creepy ass clowns, too. What starts off as a typical high school party quickly turns into a bloody, gruesome, and truly horrifying night.

pick4 out of 5 murder clowns for “Clown in a Cornfield”! 🤡🤡🤡🤡
I wanted a fun cheesy horror novel, and that‘s exactly what I got. Creepy atmosphere, amusing characters, and enough twists to surprise me even when I thought I figured it all out.
The story is not the deepest and the attempts at social commentary are a little too clunky to be taken seriously, but even if the story itself won‘t stick with me afterwards, the fun I had reading it will!
He‘d been responsible for dozens of deaths. But not the one he truly wanted. And that was because. . .
If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself.

This was quite the gruesome tale! No wonder people hate clowns 🤡
I‘m not sure of the body count, but it is HIGH!
Bring on part 2!
@RaeLovesToRead has questions, y‘all! ❓
#IHaveQuestions
1. Tagged! It‘s my current read and the only book I‘ve read this year with mystery elements so far. 😳 I‘m about 2/3rds of the way through, and already the book has thrown a twist at me I didn‘t see coming.
2. My vote for next book I‘m going to read changes almost daily, but I‘ve been eyeing my copy of “The Sun Down Motel”.
3. I do especially love mysteries with supernatural elements. 👻

In flight entertainment. The folks who recommended this know me well. The author will be at the Telluride Horror film festival this weekend so it was bumped up on my reading list! 🤡
“Can you see me?” Cole yelled over them. He was standing on the south shore of the reservoir, barefoot and facing the water. He looked like he was thinking, but Janet knew better.

pickFun, campy, slasher teen read that I enjoyed immensely as an audiobook.
It's fast-paced and full of jump scares that will keep you entertained. Frendo the clown is one creepy character too, but the real horror is revealed to be something worse than someone in a clown mask.
I'm not sure if I'll read Book 2, mostly because I'm worried it will just be more of the same and this one was done well.
“Philly ate it‘s rot. It was constantly demolishing the old to make way for the new”
pickA thrilling horror, kept me gripped throughout.

Come join my Horror , YA & Fantasy book club! We are starting Clown 🤡 in a cornfield tomorrow. I just discovered the app Fable and I‘m in book heaven 😂. We will also do polls for future read so you have a choice on what we read next! I need more book friends!!!
pickI am actually pretty impressed with this book. It was short and “fun” and had me guessing for a bit. Then I found out there‘s another book and had to start listening to that one right after. Don‘t read if squeamish.
so-soI enjoyed this YA #Slasher #Horror well enough. I can see why people are loving this, but personally, I didn‘t connect with any of the characters. Maybe I‘m too old to connect with the teens? Maybe I don‘t hate teens enough to connect with the baddies? IDK, but this was a so-so read for me. There was only one moment that had me cheering. Though bloody, the chill factor is low. 🤷🏽♀️ Maybe slashers just aren‘t the horror sub genre for me? #NSR22
My October #TrappedOnAnIsland didn‘t go too good unfortunately. I did finish Clown In A Cornfield & enjoyed it, but I only got a few chapters of Her Majesty‘s Royal Coven before DNF it(just wasn‘t the right book for now) and I never got to the others. Maybe this month I‘ll do better? Thanks for the choices @julieclair
#OminousOctober #Day24 #Mask My last read was all about a masked evil clown🤡 that crashes a teenage party in a cornfield & starts killing them off as fast as they can. I hate clowns! #Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter 6pts
Day 17 for #ScarathlonDailyPrompts was Scared.
Just like Sam Winchester, I love books, love research, & hate clowns. Especially those mechanical laughing ones - urgh, they give me the creeps. Still to get around to reading this one on my TBR.

pickWith a title like Clown in a Cornfield, you can‘t expect a masterpiece. Right? I went into this looking for quick, campy, bloody entertainment, and that‘s what I got. Cesare knows his slasher tropes and he knows how to infuse a horror story with the right amount of corn (pun intended).
The book has a ton of flaws, which I don‘t have the word count to address here, but I‘m gonna say PICK because it delivers what you‘d expect and I had fun.
Perfect read for those gloomy days (and nights) before Halloween 🎃 After her mom dies, Quinn and her dad move to a small town named Kettle Springs. What is supposed to be a new beginning, turns out to be a nightmare. A Killer Clown is killing all the teenagers in the small town. Quite a slasher - despite being a YA. I loved it!
Plan for today-
Catching up on Litsy after my trip and crazy week at work.
Knitting with this fiery fall colored 🧶while watching slasher movies.
Packing up my swaps.
Reading this teen slasher.
Maybe go out for a little while because it is a beautiful (but very windy) fall day in the Southern Tier of NY state.
Yes, I‘m still lounging in bed with the 🐈⬛ 🐈⬛ though.
pickThis was a fun slasher. I guessed the killer early and there was a bit of on the nose moments, but it was still a fun listen. I could totally see this as a movie. 3.5⭐️
#Scarathlon2022 #TeamMonsterMash #bookspinbingo #31in31 #bodycountbingo #littenlisten #Spookathon
pickA gorgeously ‘proper‘ slasher story the likes of which you rarely find in books. I love slasher movies and this was so much like a very classic one of those. Was it a bit silly? Absolutely. It was flawless.
One of the clowns had a chainsaw so obviously it was a pick.

CIAC - That was a blast! Established the characters real quick then got on with the gory bloody fun. A homage to all those 80s Slacker flicks. 🤡🌽🏹🩸
CIAC2FL is in order.
I haven't been reading as much lately, but still getting pages in whenever I can.
With fall starting up soon, good time to start reading all the horror and spooky books
pickThis was a reread (or re-listen…I read this as a hardback when it came out and listened to the audiobook this time) and I enjoyed it even more this time! I forgot how good this was and how perfectly it immerses me in spooky season. I‘ve got the sequel waiting on my shelves and I‘m just waiting for October 1st to come around to start. If you‘re looking for an exciting teen slasher this is it! 🌟🌟🌟🌟
In Adam Cesare‘s terrifying young adult debut, Quinn Maybrook finds herself caught in a battle between old and new, tradition and progress—that just may cost her life.

pickThis was very well written and kept a good pace, right up to the bloody and brutal climax.
I loved the heroine and the characters were interesting in general.
I got major Scream vibes. 🔪
This is the first book I‘ve read by this author, I'll be looking into getting more.
I recommend to Slasher fans! 🤡
pick3rd book read in #JubilantJuly @Andrew65
Well, not much to say, is a slasher. Not so fan of this type of book but prefer the book than some movies. At least in the book there is a motive, revenge? I will like to read the sequel.
Quinn moved to this isolated small town with her father to start a new life after her mother died. But the people of this town didn‘t welcome them. Why? The adults are rude with children and teenagers why? 3⭐️
pickI was very excited to read this because talk about a marriage made in horror heaven—clowns and cornfields?!? Are you kidding me? Two of the scariest things EVER (both largely because of Sai King) combined? Talk about win-win! Everything was going smoothly; the horror had kicked in and everything was wonderful, bloody chaos, and then the villains and their motivation were revealed—and it was like a big bucket of ice water to my buy-in. ⬇️ Spoiler
pickWTF?!?!?! This book is so messed up, but I love it! The narrator got a little annoying at times, but this was pretty awesome for a YA slasher.
This was my #doublespin for January. #BookspinBingo
This #creepychristmas package is amazing!
The Michael candle is the best thing I‘ve ever seen. I‘m trying to get my scaredy-cat family to play the game. Thank you so much @shortsarahrose !!!!
❤️🖤❤️🖤❤️🖤❤️ 🔪
pickGreat book. I really like Quinn, the main character. I feel like they gave away the bad guy too early. But even knowing who it was, the book was still interesting. Kettle Springs sounds like a terrible place to live.
pickI loved this book. I‘ve been struggling to read at times, but this book pulled me in. It was the right mix of fun ridiculousness with some truly freaky situations!

pickPerfect easy read for spooky season
pickI really loved this book. I love massacre/slasher movies/books and this just checked all the boxes. Yes I could predict what was going to happen, but the book was so fun that I didn't care. Also it does take the first 130ish pages to get to the good part. But after that it gets so fast paced and intense I couldn't put it down. 4.5/5 stars!
so-so3 🎃🎃🎃
Entertaining suspenseful, but predictable #YoungAdult #horror novel. Crazy FriendOh the Clown.
