Just Read: EAT THE ONES YOU LOVE by Sarah Maria Griffin

With a trip through my hometown (the real home behind the fictional Southeast Texan town of the Bless Your Heart series) just around the bend, I’ve been thinking a lot about the landmarks of my youth. The internet cafe, the family-run bakery, the high school, the skating rink. But not even the sprawling cemetery where my grandmothers lay buried, where I tagged along on weekly rituals to refresh flowers and polish stone, hold a candle to the place I spent most of my childhood: the mall.

Memory moves me through Parkdall Mall: visits to Santa’s Village, tween allowances parsed out at Claire’s and the food court, angsty teenage weekends roaming the bookstore and flirting in the arcade. My grandfather, and later my mother, worked years at the jewelry store. I was never hired by any of the stores—but my son was. Suffice it to say, Parkdale and I have history.

Set in a crumbling mall in Ireland, EAT THE ONES YOU LOVE immediately piqued my sense of nostalgia, as did its LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS vibe and slight aroma of Hailey Piper’s chimera QUEEN OF TEETH. I’ve been reading it slowly over the past few weeks, letting it unfurl in tendrils within me as I moved through the crumbling halls of The Crown just like I once moved through the corridors at my own hometown mall. This book is best absorbed in those small bites, I think—like a tasting. Let it spread under your skin and devour you whole 🌱

“Do you mind me asking—what kind of help do you need?”

After losing her job and her fiancé and moving back from the city to live with her parents, Shell Pine needs some help. And according to the sign in the window, the florist shop in the mall does too. Shell gets the gig, and the flowers she works with there are just the thing she needs to cheer up. Or maybe it’s Neve, the beautiful shop manager, who is making her days so rosy?

But you have to get your hands dirty if you want your garden to grow—and Neve’s secrets are as dark and dangerous as they come. In the back room of the flower shop, a young sentient orchid actually runs the show, and he is hungry . . . and he has a plan for them all.

When the choices are to either bury yourself in the warmth of someone else’s fertile soil, or face the cold and disappointing world outside—which would you choose? And what if putting down roots came at a cost far higher than just your freedom?

This is a story about desire, dreams, decay—and working retail at the end of the world.

EAT THE ONES YOU LOVE is now available from Sarah Maria Griffin and Tor Books.

Just Read: PAM KOWOLSKI IS A MONSTER! by Sarah Langan

Sometimes you just want to read a book that is pure fun, and if you’re in the mood for a quick read that really packs a punch, then allow me to introduce you to PAM KOWOLSKI IS A MONSTER! forthcoming from Sarah Langan and Raw Dog Screaming Press. KOWOLSKI is a fast-paced novella, but don’t mistake its small page count for a small story, because if anyone knows how to wallop you in only about 120-odd pages, it’s Sarah Langan—and she does not disappoint in this totally unhinged, absurdly delightful ripper of a novella. It’s a middle finger to social media influencer culture that pulls in the televangelist / telepsychic heydey of the 90s in a pulpy, poppy, glorious mess with a narrator so petty and so human that she’s simultaneously completely horrible and totally relatable, making you question your own grudges and memories. This one is a ride that pushes you up, up, up to the veeeery top of the rollercoaster, then lets go so abruptly that your pulse hangs in your throat while you enjoy the fall.

If Janet Chow hadn’t been such a jerk to everyone at Sewanhaka High, they might have voted her Most Likely to Succeed. Twenty-plus years later, life hasn’t turned out how Janet expected. She’s rudderless, her career in journalism crashed, burned, and buried. How did it come to this?

But then one day, Janet recognizes her mortal enemy from high school—Pam Kowolski! Somehow, Pam’s become America’s manic pixie sweetheart, an online psychic predicting the end of the world. Pam’s rich, hawt, and famous, meanwhile Janet looks…middle aged. How did this happen? How did Pam Kowolski steal Janet’s life?

Janet knows the truth: there’s no way a dumb ass like Pam earned her success. She’s lying about her powers. The world isn’t ending. Pam’s a FRAUD. It’s time for Janet to wake up and claim what’s hers by writing an article that TAKES PAM DOWN.

But to reveal Pam, she’s got to dig deep into their shared past. There’s bad stuff back there, scary stuff, and the more Janet learns, the more she worries: what if Pam Kowolski is right?

PAM KOWOLSKI IS A MONSTER! is forthcoming from Sarah Langan and Raw Dog Screaming Press on May 21.

Just Read: THE SHIVERS Collection (Amazon Original Stories)

As an anthologist, I am absolutely obsessed with short stories. There is a dear place in my heart for anthology in any form, whether compiled into one volume or delivered in individual servings, piece by delicious piece.

If there’s one thing I can say for sure, it’s that any collection made up of Joe Hill, Stephen Graham Jones, Grady Hendrix, Catriona Ward, and Owen King is worth devouring.

Little gems, every one—though I will say that Grady Hendrix broke my heart!

Now Lenore, Luna, and the new sheriff—their biggest ally—must dig deep down into family lore to uncover what threatens everything they love most. The body count ticks up, the most unexpected dead will rise–forcing Lenore and Luna to face the possibility that the undead aren’t the only monsters preying on their small town.

April is a little extra exciting for me this spring, because not only are the Evans women celebrating their first full year out in the world since the release of BLESS YOUR HEART (which is now available in paperback) tomorrow, but they’re back next week with a brand new problem to deal with in ANOTHER FINE MESS.

I can’t wait for you all to see what’s in store for our group of Southern monster slayers this time around, and I hope we get a chance to meet and chat about it, too because spring is in the air and so is book event season! Here’s where you can find me in the coming weeks:

April 23 VIRTUAL, 7pm ET: Author Hour in Massachusetts, in conversation with author Katrina Monroe

April 26, Montclair, NJ: Montclair Literary Festival—I’ll be there all day, and also appearing on a panel with author Nat Cassidy

May 2, Doylestown, PA @ 6pm: Books n’ Brew—I’ll be hanging with fellow authors Rachel Harrison and Dennis Mahoney

May 3-4, Fredricksburg, VA: Horror on the Rappahannock—I’ll be there with 30+ more horror authors, spookin’ your socks off all weekend

If you’re curious, check the full calendar of events on my website to see if I’ll be visiting your favorite local bookstore sometime soon.

#ICYMI, a new book is coming! The announcement for my next book—a brand new standalone—just dropped and I can’t wait for you all to meet DOLLFACE in 2026! This new screamy beauty queen will be released from Minotaur Books in the US on February 24, 2026, with details to come in the UK. If the Bless Your Heart series is my love letter to home and horror, then DOLLFACE is my love letter to all things 90s—especially its fashion, pop culture, and neo-slashers.

Barbie meets Scream with a nostalgic 90s twist in this horror romp. Horror author Jill has just moved to suburban New Jersey, hoping to fit in with the new PTA moms and maybe not weird everyone out with her Final Girl coffee mug. You know. Make some real friends.

But then a plastic face-masked serial killer begins slashing their way through town, one overly made-up mom at a time. The police are incredulous. The moms are indignant. And Jill is slowly wrapped into a killer’s murderous spree, until she might just be the last woman standing.

A delightfully murderous novel that is equal parts scathing and salacious, Dollface will win you over with its gossip and gore, one body at a time.

DOLLFACE is heavily inspired by my time living in New Jersey (where, I was on the elementary PTA board) and the life-changing girlfriends I made while there, and so it’s extra sweet that the books’ very, very first blurb has come from one of my very, very favorite authors and cherished literary gal-pal, Delilah S. Dawson, who called it:

“A whimsical, bloody, unsettling suburban slasher with an unexpected twist that will hit way too close to home for any mom who'd rather face a serial killer than a PTA meeting.”

– New York Times bestselling author, Delilah S. Dawson

I’ve just seen the official cover and it is to die for. I can’t wait for you to see it soon!

March’s reads were mostly blurb requests (readers are in for a TREAT on horror/thriller shelves this year!), but I did squeeze in YOU DESERVE TO KNOW by Aggie Blum Thompson, THE SUBLET by Greer Hendricks, and the new edition of MAPPING THE INTERIOR by Stephen Graham Jones. All three of these monsters were very different—neighborhood scandals, horrifying landlords, haunted family rites—and all three were a lot of fun. I can’t recommend MAPPING enough.

That’s the updates for this month! Ya’ll come back soon now, ya hear?

Just Read: FOLLOW ME by Elizabeth Rose Quinn

I’ve been binging cozy thrillers lately—with an unintentional yet observable tendency toward anything that takes a satirical look at the dark side of social media, I wonder why—and FOLLOW ME came up on my list of April First Reads, so I decided to give it ago. Pitched as Heathers meets The Stepford Wives, FOLLOW ME is Quinn’s debut novel, out from Amazon’s Thomas & Mercer. As a fan of Levin’s work, I appreciate the use of hashtag parentheticals as a fun nod to the original Stepford Wives, and Quinn’s unflinchingly scathing rebuke of Instagram #mommieculture (the INTJ-inspired personality quiz of the Mom Squad is especially hysterical) is rather delightful. While the novel is more successful in its comedy than its creep factor with more time devoted to satire than thrills, FOLLOW ME is a romp when you’re in the mood for a fun story, pairing very well with a healthy distaste of toxic social media culture.

After her twin sister, Chiara, goes missing at a mom-fluencer weekend, Adrienne Shaw will find her no matter what it takes. They may have been on the outs, but no one comes for her sister and gets away with it.

It’s been a year, the authorities have no answers, and her brother-in-law is useless in the matter. It’s time for Adrienne to take the case into her own hands. Following in Chiara’s last footsteps, Adrienne goes undercover, infiltrating the same influencer retreat as the last thing she wants to an Instamommy.

The remote ranch in Northern California is certainly welcoming—in a cult-adjacent kind of way. A charismatic leader, communal crafts, fixed smiles—and a lot of dead eyes.

Going on gut instinct and chasing a wild theory—that Chiara came here and never left—Adrienne is determined to uncover the truth before the too-perfect-to-believe women figure out who Adrienne really a threat to be eliminated.

FOLLOW ME is available from Elizabeth Rose Quinn and Thomas & Mercer now.

Interview: Author Katrina Monroe Talks Hauntings, Generational Trauma, and Sisterhood in "Through the Midnight Door"

This interview originally ran on Rue Morgue.

In THROUGH THE MIDNIGHT DOOR, author Katrina Monroe delivers an emotional tale of the sometimes-fragile bonds of sisterhood and deeply rooted generational trauma.

The Finch sisters once spent their summers exploring the abandoned properties littering their dying town – until they found an impossible home with an endless hall of doors… and three keys waiting for them. Fearless, each sister stepped inside their chosen rooms to experience horrors they never dared speak of again. Years later, the youngest sister, Claire, is discovered dead in that old house. Haunted by their sister’s suicide and the memories of a past they’ve struggled to forget, the remaining siblings find themselves at bitter odds. As Meg and Esther navigate the tensions of their brittle relationship, they draw unsettling parallels between Claire’s death, their own haunted memories, and a long-ago loss no one in their family can face. With the house once again calling them home, Meg and Esther must find the connection between their sister’s death and the shadow that has chased them across the years – before the darkness claims them, too.

RUE MORGUE recently had the opportunity to sit down with Katrina and chat about THROUGH THE MIDNIGHT DOOR, the final installment in her “Triangle of Trauma,” now available from Poisoned Pen Press wherever books are sold.

Thanks for reading Evans Funeral Parlor! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.

THROUGH THE MIDNIGHT DOOR is a supernatural thriller about three sisters who step into an abandoned house, and the darkness that follows them out. What inspired you to write this book?

I think the Haunting of Hill House inspiration is pretty obvious, but when I started writing this book, I didn’t initially have Shirley Jackson in mind. All I knew was that I wanted to write a haunted house book and that I wanted some sort of sibling dynamic in it. I am a massive fan of Mike Flanagan’s interpretation of Jackson’s story, and while the scares are fantastic, it’s the interpersonal relationships that he really nails for me. I wanted to do something like that. I’m very close to my sisters now, but there was a time when we weren’t. I missed them, and it’s that spirit that finally brought me to Meg, Esther and Claire.

Keys feature prominently throughout the book. Can you talk more about the symbolism here, and how you incorporated that into the plot?

I grew up on portal fantasy. The Chronicles of Narnia, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan… Being the eldest of six kids, I constantly daydreamed about finding some door – away from everyone and everything – to some magical place where I didn’t have to be a secondary parent. Being a mom of teens now, the urge is even stronger.

[The] point is I’m always thinking of keys.

So, when Meg, Esther and Claire first find these keys, they’re thinking the way I did when I was a kid – escape from their parents, from their dying town, from a traumatic secret no one can talk about. After that first visit to the house, though, the keys become a vehicle for truth – for trauma. There’s no outrunning it. You have to face it.

For all its dread, there is a story of sisterhood at the heart of this novel. What from your own experiences inspired these women and their individual stories?

This book is truly my lovesong to sisters. I have two, and they are my best friends. I would say I wrote this book for them, but that’s not exactly right. I wrote it to celebrate the unique bond of sisterhood, the way vicious fights can take a sudden turn into adoration. A friend will lie to make you feel better, but a sister will tear you apart to get to the glowing center, and then show it to you because you can’t always see it yourself. (My sister, Allison, is especially good at this.)

There have been some incredible suburban gothics to hit the shelves lately, and THROUGH THE MIDNIGHT DOOR brings its own unique twists and worst fears into the mix. Ignoring things like alphabetical order, if you could pick any two books to anchor this one on bookshelves, what would they be?

This might seem like an odd first choice, but I don’t think THROUGH THE MIDNIGHT DOOR would be too out of place next to How to Sell a Haunted House by Grady Hendrix. Hendrix’s book does a fantastic job of taking a microscope to a complicated sibling dynamic when put under the pressure of grief and impossible happenings.

My second pick is The September House by Carissa Orlando. I love horror that anthropomorphizes, especially things and places that are meant to be comforting – like home. In Orlando’s novel, saying the house is haunted is like saying the ocean is water. [That’s}true but doesn’t come close to addressing the eerie undercurrent. Like THROUGH THE MIDNIGHT DOOR, the fact of a presence in the house, or the evil nature of the house itself, doesn’t matter as much as what it means for the characters and the memories they’ve tried to hide away in boxes.

What message or lesson do you want readers to take away from your book?

Anyone who knows me knows I love a good allegory. I know what I wanted to take away from writing this book, but I’m hesitant to assign a message or lesson to it for others. I’ve taken to calling this book the final piece in my “Triangle of Trauma,” with They Drown Our Daughters and Graveyard of Lost Children as the other two. Put together, they are hard lessons I’ve had to learn, a past I’ve been trying to outrun. My own keys to impossible doors.

I do hope it resonates with readers who have their own darknesses they can’t quite articulate. I want them to know that I see them, and that though it might not look like it right now, everything will be okay.

And finally, can you share anything about what you’re working on now, or what readers can expect next?

I have taken a sharp left turn, for sure. Being a private investigator by trade, I’ve been asked hundreds of times whether I’ll ever write a P.I., mystery. For years, I stubbornly said no.

Then, I got an idea. (Isn’t that always the way?)

It’s definitely on the lighter side. The Triangle of Trauma is complete, for now, and I had a ton of fun writing a new kind of story with characters I’m still thinking about. In an ideal world, it would be the start of a series with a mom at the center, and the wide, curious world spreading out around her. It’s with my agent at the moment, and we’re hoping to find a home for it soon. Cross your fingers for me!

Just Read: MAPPING THE INTERIOR by Stephen Graham Jones

Stephen Graham Jones is a one-click author for me, but this grief-stricken ghost story has long escaped my reading list—until now. MAPPING THE INTERIOR won the 2017 Bram Stoker Award® for Long Fiction, and has been updated for a brand new edition coming April 9, 2025 from Tor.com. Part ghost-story, part coming-of-age, there is an incredible amount of powerful storytelling packed into fifty or so pages. It’s hard to define the exact type of sadness that haunts these pages, but it’s the sort that finds you at your core. One of Jones’s best. Quintessential reading, for sure.

Walking through his own house at night, a fifteen-year-old thinks he sees another person stepping through a doorway. Instead of the people who could be there, his mother or his brother, the figure reminds him of his long-gone father, who died mysteriously before his family left the reservation. When he follows it he discovers his house is bigger and deeper than he knew.

The house is the kind of wrong place where you can lose yourself and find things you'd rather not have. Over the course of a few nights, the boy tries to map out his house in an effort that puts his little brother in the worst danger, and puts him in the position to save them . . . at terrible cost.

Just Read: YOU DESERVE TO KNOW by Aggie Blum Thompson

I included YOU DESERVE TO KNOW, a brand-new suburban thriller from Aggie Blum Thompson on this month’s Chill Quill column, but this was a fun read that deserves a little extra attention this Spring. Just out on March 11, Thompson’s latest takes the old wisdom “you never know what goes on behind closed doors,” digs in, and tears it wide open. From cheating spouses to questionable alcoholism to the haunts of unmet dreams of self-fulfillment, no secret locked behind the closed doors of American suburbia is safe in this grounded suspense novel.

Neighbors Gwen, Aimee, and Lisa share more than playdates and coffee mornings on their tranquil street in East Bethesda. They confide their deepest secrets, navigate the challenges of motherhood together, and provide a support system that seems unbreakable.

But when Gwen’s husband is found murdered after one of their weekly Friday night dinners, the peaceful quiet of their cul-de-sac shatters. The seemingly idyllic world of the three close-knit mom friends becomes a web of deception, betrayal, and revenge.

As the police investigate, the veneer of friendship begins to crack, revealing hidden tensions, clandestine affairs, and long-buried jealousies among the three women. With suspicions mounting and the neighborhood gripped by fear, Gwen, Aimee, and Lisa must confront the chilling truth about their husbands, and the sinister undercurrents in their own friendship.

In a cul-de-sac where no one is blameless and everyone has something to hide, Thompson weaves a tangled web of deceit, betrayal, and secrets in this twisty suburban thriller that doesn’t stop spinning until the very last page.
