All of Us Murderers | KJ Charles
6 posts | 4 read | 4 to read
The lush Gothic drama of Crimson Peak meets the murderous intrigue of Knives Out with an LGBTQIA+ love story to die for from award-winning author KJ Charles.WHO WILL SURVIVE LACKADAY HOUSE?When Zeb Wyckham is summoned to a wealthy relative's remote Gothic manor, he is horrified to find all the people he least wants to see in the world: his estranged brother, his sneering cousin, and his bitter ex-lover Gideon Grey. Things couldn't possibly get worse.Then the master of the house announces the true purpose of the gathering: he intends to leave the vast family fortune to whoever marries his young ward, setting off a violent scramble for her hand. Zeb wants no part of his greedy family--but when he tries to leave, the way is barred. The walls of Lackaday House are high, and the gates firmly locked. As the Dartmoor mists roll in, there's no way out. And something unnatural may be watching them from the house's shadowy depths...Fear and paranoia ramping ever-higher, Zeb has nowhere to turn but to the man who once held his heart. As the gaslight flickers and terror takes hold, can two warring lovers reunite, uncover the murderous mysteries of Lackaday House--and live to tell the tale?

Excellent narrator, excellent queer, creepy fun. I agree with @shanaqui that the way his family treats neurodivergent Zeb is very distressing but the romance and bizarre twists of the story are terrific. (I guessed a bit, recognizing one authorial influence -- but there was so much more!) I feel like reading the whole thing over in print now.

shanaqui Once I got past the first three-ish chapters, I flew through this one -- it was just those first couple of chapters when you think, “is EVERYONE going to be awful to Zeb?? for the WHOLE book???“ 2d
Faranae I'm so jealous as I wait for this to hit my libraries... 2d
willaful @shanaqui seriously! 2d
willaful @Faranae I'm feeling very naughty -- I returned the audiobook right away but I'm still holding onto the ebook because I wanna read some more, I should just buy it. 2d
Faranae @willaful Well, at least I'm not waiting on any naughty holds, as it's just not in my library systems yet (though in fact I'm not waiting at all now because SOMEONE took care of that...). But I don't think it's naughty since you just want to spend more time with the book, it's not like you aren't reading it! 2d

Important warning: alongside period-typical homophobia and misogyny, the main character has ADHD and people are awful to him for it.

It took me a while to get into this as a consequence, but this evening I sat down and dug in, and loved it. Properly gothic thriller, though. For that I'll say it's a #HauntedShelf recommendation!

willaful I'm going to wait a bit to start it because I seem to be having a lot of negative reactions to what I'm reading. Don't wanna spoil a Charles if it's my mood. 1w
shanaqui @willaful I didn't get into it at first, I'm glad today something clicked because I was feeling so weirdly not into it. 1w
willaful @shanaqui I've been reading all the new books by authors I love and being disappointed. 1w

Preordered, officially published last week and I'm surprised it's here already. My unreliable bookshop estimated it to be delivered in December. 🙄🙄

I guess this time my @DeweysReadathon is going to be packed with re-reads.

Jari-chan I kinda want to steal your book and your tattoos 🤔 1w
julesG @Jari-chan You can buy your own copy and support an author. 😉 You can steal the tattoo idea. I'll post a better picture in a moment. 1w

It‘s finally October!!!

🍁🍂🎃🖤🧡😭🧡🖤🎃🍂🍁

Left/vertical is #bookofthemonth #botm (finally getting that cute corduroy hat!), and bottom/horizontal is #aardvark #aardvarkbookclub … which gave us IMPOSSIBLE choices this month, so, alas, I couldn‘t get all I wanted. Why are they so good at that?? 🤔🥲 Tagged is the one I‘m moooost excited for, but it‘s a close call - their exclusive short story collection is also 🔥

Happy October!!! 🎃🍁🖤

Just started the #ARC which is set in a very Gothic manor house in Dartmoor.

julesG ALL OF US MURDERERS is a wicked gothic drama that follows two ex-lovers trapped in a house dripping in fear, paranoia, and possibly something far darker. Worthy of fall reading lists for its spook factor and top of list for any romance readers who can handle a 🌶️🌶️🌶️ spice level. 4mo
rubyslippersreads Love the vintage Gothic paperback cover! 4mo
julesG @rubyslippersreads it's perfect 4mo

CarolynM I‘m looking forward to this, but saving it for when I need a treat😊 4mo
julesG @CarolynM were you lucky to snag an ARC too? 4mo
CarolynM My bad, it‘s showing on my Apple Books app but when I look closely I see it‘s only there as a pre-order ☹️ Lucky I have Copper Script for a treat instead😆 4mo
julesG @CarolynM That happens. I'll read Copper Script after All of us Murderers. 4mo
