Happy Saturday! Today I did things a little differently than usual. Kinda. I feel as though these reviews get a little wild and unhinged, but in the best ways possible—and when I say unhinged, I mean that I went ahead and used multiple quotes for several of the books and censored some of the quotes. If you know me, you know I don’t censor anything. So, that alone should say something. Anyway, I went a bit longer on these, so let’s skip the small talk and dive right in! Enjoy!

Happy Saturday! This week, I bring you four books that hit so hard it took everything in my power not to use the F word at least ten times per review. I somehow managed not to use it at all, I think. Anyway, I cannot praise these books enough. Absolutely amazing. And as usual, a little something for everyone. Enjoy! AT THE HOUR OF VIOLENCE by Robert Essig " It was as if there was hopelessness trapped behind the façade, trying desperately to get through." Wow! This book was in

Happy Saturday! Buckle up. Today I have four amazing books to tell you about! It’s going to get pretty lengthy, so let’s skip the intro and dive right in! Enjoy! TOWHEAD by Jason Nickey “She took a deep breath and slowly approached the boy. ‘Here goes nothing,’ she said, clutching her cross necklace with her left hand and placing her right hand on the boy's forehead. ‘Heavenly father, I ask that you look over this poor child and protect him from the evils of this world. I ask

Happy Saturday! Spoiler alert, today’s books were all easy five stars for me! I bring you some Eric Butler , which you can never go wrong with, two Reekfeel stories, and one by Angelique Jordonna—one of my favorite women in horror! Oh, and three out of four of these can be found on Godless! That being said… enjoy! THE BARGAIN by Eric Butler “Only a fool isn't terrified of that old woman. She pulled her shawl tighter around her shoulders and entered the woods. Guess tonight, I

Happy Saturday! Today I come bearing two amazing Godless finds and a new release that will live rent free in my head for life. Enjoy! PLÜSCHOW AND THE SPINNING MAN By Steve Berman "I wonder if it was the distraction any of us have when a pretty thing presents itself. Or was it the distraction of necessity?" This book is one of the reasons I love Godless. There are so many hidden gems to be found! PLÜSCHOW AND THE SPINNING MAN is one of those stories I would consider brilliant

We're coming to you all live from Williamsburg, Virginia, where Scares That Cares is happening this weekend! I have a full day of convention stuff to attend, so we’ll keep the intro short. Today, I brought you three super depraved books. Got a trigger warning? I can guarantee one of these books touches upon it, but they’re all easy five-star reads for Splatterpunk and Extreme Horror lovers! ENJOY!!!

Happy Saturday and Happy Valentine’s Day! There is a zero percent chance that I am bringing you any sort of lovey-dovey, happily ever after romance. But there is a one hundred percent chance that I am bringing the absolute horrors. So, grab a box of chocolate, throw some rose petals around, and embrace the chaos!

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 Saturday! Per usual, I come bearing the goods. Let's just do this! RUNTS By Daniel J. Volpe "Human meat roasted over the open flames of the fireplace. The smell was intoxicating, and the Runts couldn't wait to eat. It had been years since they had human flesh; not since Pickles died and they risked eating him." RUNTS is absolutely one of the most fun books I have read in a while! Volpe nailed it with this one, and I NEED a sequel in my life asap. There should be zero q
