As predicted, absolutely zero chance of a bingo in February 😂 But I had fun!

Very strange book! I liked it a lot but it was a little too bloody and sexy for me to actually love. The world Reeves built is surprising and gory and delightful.
“The upside of having a serial killer for a father is that no matter what you do, it‘s never as bad as what he‘s done.”
Dia Reeves has said she doesn‘t do “typical” teens. So true. Think Alice in Wonderland with a cleaver. It‘s weird, violent, and disturbing, but I liked it anyway.

This was weird, creepy, kinda nonsensical in parts, and totally fucked up but I dug it.
Haven't posted in awhile (ok probably two days but it FEELS like awhile), sort of a distracted month so far. Closing in on the end of this one, it's good. I dig this sub sub genre of weird/urban fantasy ish YA. I'd put it on a rec list with Beware the Wild and Kate Karyus Quinn.
#currentlyreading this has a low score here but 75 pages in and I'm loving it. Possibly it helps I knew it was horror going in -- the teacups are bloody sure bit it's still a deceptive cover at first glance.

Day 2: Creepy Characters
Dia Reeves has the market on creepy characters, ya'll. This is not the book for everyone, as there is violence on top of violence, w/bits of extra violent chunks, sprinkled liberally w/blood and magic and even more violence. The mcs, two creepy sisters (the daughters of a serial killer) were fascinating (for twisted minds like mine), but they won't be invited to my birthday later this month!
Have I mentioned how much I love used bookstores? Seriously...I could spend hours in there. Also, I'm more willing to try books I'm iffy about because I only paid $2. Like this one. Anyone read it?

I decided to feature horror books by POC authors for today's #somethingforsept theme. It was incredibly difficult to narrow the books down to just a few. I highly encourage readers who are interested in the horror genre to hit up some Goodreads lists for authors I didn't have the space to include in the photo. #septphotochallenge
