Another #backlogpost from Scarathon lol

I think this is my favorite Moreno-Garcia so far! I am also biased- I like film-based horror. I just think it‘s a lot of fun. It feels like a new medium that‘s been underutilized compared to like a magic item or cursed book.

Give it a shot if you like cursed stuff and headstrong protagonists and learning about old film history and techniques

SamAnne I thought this was a really interesting premise, plot and setting. Certain Dark Things is still my fave but I really enjoyed this read! 6mo
Coueriamb @SamAnne I loved it too! I think the setting/time period made it for me tbh. It all gelled so well! 6mo

Getting back into the swing of things with a #backlogpost

This was a fun one with an interesting premise! However I found myself getting more frustrated than immersed. The MC was a little more clueless than necessary. I got the vibe it wanted to be strong independent woman and felt more Lifetime Halloween Special :/

I wouldn‘t discourage anyone because it was fun overall! But I probably wouldn‘t pick it up for the shelf.

I wasn‘t sure how much I liked it right after I read it- but looking back now I like it more! The multiple POV‘s are different but cohesive enough that it doesn‘t feel like a fun gimmick. Plus the ending was great I was yelling while walking the dog - in a good way like YEAH GET HIS ASS.

Fun!

Another #backlogpost

This one wasn‘t bad! Buuut it super engaging either. A lot of it was very lyrical and purple prose-y that didn‘t land with me.

The story is fun though! It‘d got good gothic vibes for a YA audience. I just wish it kept the lyrical parts to one character instead of having them interspersed.
