Tomorrow's my first offspring's birthday, so I'll be busy baking. I virtually HAD to start a day early! ;)

Char | 17489 comments I'm hoping to start tonight after dinner! Is everyone ready to go?

Please try to be aware of spoilers and please precede your post with where you are in the book-chapter number, page number, something, and that way no one will read any spoilers before they're ready!

If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

Happy reading, everyone!

Morning Char, I am ready to go :) about to start.

Can we just make this a monthly group read until we've read them all? :P

Char | 17489 comments I'm sure we could, but I do have a few other authors lined up. :)

Anyone that wants to though, could create another thread for the rest of the books, or just for the next book, at anytime.

Terry | 5385 comments I've gotten started this morning. Made it up to Ch 5 so far. Off to an interesting start. Totally curious about (view spoiler)


message 112: by Daniel (new) - added it

Daniel Barnett | 239 comments People who finish the first and would like to continue onward should feel free to do so! Many of the volumes are on the shorter side, and Char has a great spoiler system in place, so nobody has to worry.

(That’s my opinion, anyway)

Tommy I'm weak. I didn't wait. I read all 6 in January. I loved this series/season and devoured each volume greedily and slurped up every last crumb. I owe Daniel Barnett for leading me to a genre I cannot get enough of. I judge all cosmic horror against this series. This series is also why I'm never far from earplugs and a flashlight.

Thank you, Daniel!

Ginger | 3931 comments I’ve been seeing all the great reviews and ratings for this! Plus, those book covers are wonderful and this sounds like a plot I would love.

I think I’m going to join this BR and will get to the first book in a few days.

As for book 2, 3, etc, we’ll be doing one a month and posting here?
Thanks for setting this up Char!

I like that idea since they aren't very long and I think I will splurge and start getting the paperbacks too because they are so gosh darn beautiful.

They are absolutely gorgeous, aren't they? They're made by Daniele Serra and his work is amazing. He is my favorite cover artist.

Thanks Terry! It was your review and a few others that pushed me to add "another" series to my TBR list. LOL

Just started, sorry I was being book drunk with our Feb group read so I wanted for today to finally read with a clear head and the beginning has Tremblay's The Cabin at the End of the World vibes, really enjoying it! :)

Sally | 340 comments Just finished, this was so great. I'm not sure if I'll be able to wait until March to start the 2nd one but I will try: ) Once I get my physical copy I need to do a re-read so I can annotate the hell out of it.

@Daniel, the description of Lily says it's the last in the 1st season of The Nightmareland Chronicles. Are you currently working on season 2? (Please say yes)

So that's what it takes?! I just ordered the whole series and plan on telling my husband that it's also an early birthday gift. 😂

Happy early birthday Sally! Mine is also next week. I hope it's a fantastic day and you do something great with your wife. 💕❤️

Ginger | 3931 comments I just started today and love the writing. It's descriptive and just flows really well.

I'm really liking the main character of John. Lots of layers with this guy.
