What I'm Reading

I don't know whether y'all do this but I usually have a separate Day Book and Night Book. Night Books are normally on my Kindle--I have the Paperwhite with a backlight feature so I can read in the dark. HOWEVER! Reading this book in the dark might've been a mistake. I mean, it feels like comedy writing, it's funny in bits and then it's really fucking scary and I don't scare easily. (except for haunted house books. Oof.) I think what made it so subtly terrifying was the structure: it's the 80s, Patricia is a housewife who joins a true crime book club. A charming and erudite man moves in next door who everyone just loves, including Patricia's psychiatrist husband. Only she thinks there's something wrong with him. Lots of visceral horror scenes including with rats and cockroaches so approach with a look at your own delicate sensibilities. I kinda loved it though. #bookstagram #mrmbookclub #120in2020 #thesouthernbookclubsguidetoslayingvampires
