2-12-2026 Latham's Last Words: Escape by Aseera
Welcome to Latham's Last Words, where I give you my last words on books I've enjoyed. It's Black History Month so it's the perfect time to talk about a collection of horror stories by Aseera. Loved this collection of short stories! Fast paced page turners you get hooked right away. Most of the stories have a twist that'll leave you speechless. Unpretty Body horror of the most gruesome kind. I wish this had been longer. What a way to start out the book! Good Morning Beautiful

02/11/2026 Candace Reviews: EMINENCE FRONT
EMINENCE FRONT By Rebecca Rowland From the synopsis: A winter storm ravages a small community in New England, but the residents of one street are unprepared for what the snow brings: an ancient curse, an entity that knows both their sins and their regrets and will stop at nothing to consume what belongs to it. Review: When a winter storm arrives in a small town in New England, few are prepared for the aftermath, and fewer still will survive the raging horror hidden within. Re

02/10/2026 Besonen Breakdowns:
Today's breakdown is for the audiobook of "Baker's Dozen" by Uncomfortably Dark! Christine Morgan kicked it off with a strong one that warns of the dangers of questioning one's nature before thy own. Chris Miller next about a Karen and a Geist crossing paths that only spells disaster. Ruth Ann Jagge followed with a brutal tale that will make you think twice about befriending a feline. Jeff Strand grossed me out and then turned around and terrified me with his zany game show s

02/09/2026 Candace Reviews: The Terrifier 3 novelization by Tim Waggoner
The Terrifier Written by Tim Waggoner Edited by James Carlson. Published by Bloody Press (Part of the Bloody Disgusting network) If you are a fan of the Terrifier films, this book is for you! It reads exactly as it should, full of gore, terror, violence and depravity, along with a few well-placed chuckles. Tim did an excellent job keeping the feel, pace, and tension of the film intact while taking the reader on an unhinged rage fueled romp through town. It's a terrific piec

Happy Saturday! We made it to February! This week brings a good range and something for everyone. Enjoy! VERY VIOLENT GHOSTS By R.J. Benetti “Reshooting the forever-film… the reels spin without end… powered by our remembered suffering.” This was hands down the hardest ARC I have ever received that I was asked to keep under wraps. Why? Because Benetti came out and did something insanely special with this one. IT’S DEEP. If you’ve ever read Benetti , you know things can go a li

Happy Friday, everyone! I hope you had a wonderful week, and a big thank you for swinging by. I don't know about you, but clowns tend to make me feel uneasy, whether it be an actual clown or some type of inanimate clown object. Clowns just give me the ick. So, I thought, hey, why not torture myself with a clown tale this week? Let's take a moment and meet…… Buttons by Jennifer Osborn Welcome to Cedar Grove, a quiet little town with an unfortunate problem. A killer clown named

2-5-2026 Latham's Last Words: Escapement by Kristopher Rufty
Welcome to Latham's Last Words, where I give you my last words on books I've enjoyed. I celebrate FebruRufty each February so it's fitting to have one of his books as my first review of the month. Escapement is a collection of 3 novellas and would be a great introduction to his work. Excellent! I'm a big fan of Rufty's writing so it's no surprise I loved this collection of novellettes. Each one offered a different brand of horror. Scraps was the most extreme of the three. I
