Yay im so glad I could beef up your TBR even more 😎 Sorry about the link, I think I fixed it now. If that still doesn't work, try the link in my channel bio ( •ᴗ•)

I also loved the ending. Glad I could recommend a new one for you and hope you like it. Hopefully I'll have more new recs for you in part 2 of this series (˶ᐢᗜᐢ˶)

Not everyone can be a fellow disturbing books comrade 🫡

Haha glad I'm keeping your therapist in business. I'll have to check out that Nancy Tucker one. I finished My Husband a few weeks ago and am hoping to talk about it in my next wrap up. \(ü)/

K well uno reverse

I listened on audio and that was a journey ( ಠ ͜ʖಠ)

Honestly, discussing it in this video has made me want to reread it so I might. Thanks for being here (^ᴗ^)

@@superblomper I'm about a quarter of the way in, and I'm LIVING. 🙌🖤

Thanks Dan. I think you'll especially enjoy The Hike ( •ᴗ•)

@@soda_fairy (*´∀`*) ಥᴗಥ ty!!

you do!! the stories were a nice balance of common horror tropes and fresh, unique ideas.

i haven't heard of most of these, so i will definitely check them out! i hope you end up liking bonding, i had a lot of fun with it (´◡`)

yay im glad! it's so true, it's kinda vulnerable to share passages i annotate from a book i loved!! it feels like baring a lil sliver of my soul. (*´∀`*)

i know, the opening few pages i was like oh damn this is good!! ! been hooked ever since (◡‿◡✿)

it was a ton o fun!!!

I hope you love them!! Summer Hikaru Died has subtle BL undertones too, which I forgot to mention.

Ooooh I'll have to add Count to my list! I ended up reading The Case Against Satan a few months ago and was definitely impressed by it. Thanks for being here ♡＾▽＾♡

hell yeah

I hope you like it!! Ty ty (˶ᐢᗜᐢ˶)

♡＾▽＾♡

I have read that one (in paperback lol) and it's a wacky weird time! Her writing style is so distinct and fun to read.

I think the word my smooth brain was trying to grasp was "catalog" cuz ouevre is a word that I know exists but I have locked away in the "do not use out loud or you will embarrass yourself" section of my brain. (ᴗ ͜ʖ ᴗ)

He really is a tiny, innocent baby who has never done anything wrong ever and must be protected at all costs

Omg OK yr out here living in 3024 with that fab idea, I feel like my experience would have been much better with some 🍃 hahahaha

Yeah I'm loving dorohedoro, I just gotta pick it back up!! Greg dog is on my TBR, so maybe I gotta bump it up the list 👀 I think you'll like Bonding!!

OK yes you get it haha I've never been an eReader girly, but have been contemplating getting one for reading manga and I think once that happens I'll love it and start reading everything on it. The convenience of an eReader is very appealing... Hope you end up liking the ones you add to your TBR ✧˖° ♡

Stoner is a great winter book, so I'll remind you in 3 months and then you can read it in like December and the vibes will be fab!!!

it's both! essays are usually just shorter books and are pretty much just the author providing their opinions on a particular topic.

I definitely have books like that too, but I hope I'm able to get to this one before it reaches rotting-on-my-shelf status ( •ᴗ•)

oooh interesting, i guess i don't know much about his other writings, but will definitely check out more if i end up liking this essay i'm working through. thank you for your kind words and thank you for being here!!

omg ok i'm excited! just read the girl on the shore last month and it rearranged my freakin chromosomes, so i hope solanin does too. tysm!!! :,) glad to see you here!

hahahaha i never thought about it like that, but that is exactly it!!!!

i love samanta schweblin!!!! i own that short story collection, but i've been dragging my feet on picking it up since it feels so much harder for my brain to get through short stories ugh i'll definitely try to pick it up soon though!!!

i can relate to people spiraling lol i've seen the bee sting floating around, but hadn't really considered it. i will now though, thanks! aaah i still gotta get to birnam wood too. i saw it at the bookstore, but the first page didn't grab me. i'm still gonna give it a shot, though. i'll definitely consider ligotti's short stories if i like the conspiracy against the human race. i feel like i'm obligated to read at least some of his horror fiction in order to maintain my card-carrying horror girly status.
