    Candy Cain Kills was so good! It is a typical slasher, but so much fun! And Candy Cain Kills Again (book 2) was just released as well. Happy reading!

    “It’s just about this frickin’ guy who gets visited by ghosts or whatever” (slightly paraphrased) I think that’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard.

    Just finished up You Better Watch Out so I can answer your question about how Christmasy it is. The abandoned town is all decked out for Christmas and the weather is below freezing with blizzard-like conditions which comes into play. There’s a Merry-Go-Round in the middle of town that comes into play later. That seems kind of Christmasy. However, sadly, the kills aren’t very christmasy. Nobody getting attacked with sharpened candy canes or strangled with a string of Christmas lights. But Christmas also is also kind of important to the overall plot. Kind of. Anyhow, I enjoyed it! It was a quick fun read.

      Oh! And A Christmas Carol is sooo good! I hope you enjoy it! The ghost of Christmas present is… something else, lol. It’s also funnier than most of the movies make it seem. Dickens was a pretty witty guy.

    My plan is to read Candy Cain Kills Again on Christmas Eve...this time I'll be ready, Santa!
    If you order from the publisher's site directly, they send a lot of cool swag as well...stickers, bookplate, ships in a custom box resembling a VHS tape.

    I read A Christmas Carol every year and I'm sure you will grow to love it. Of the many film versions the 1951 classic starring Alistair Sim is probably the one to check out. Now say after me..."bah humbug!"

    Mexican Gothic is a treat. Silvia Moreno-Garcias books "Untamed Shore", "Certain Dark Things", and "Silver Nitrate" are worth a read.

    Our horror book club read Hark The Harold Angels Scream and I love it. It’s a collection of horror stories by different writers and honestly blew me away by all the creativity and fun locked inside the pages. Highly recommend it.

    Snow is pretty entertaining. I agree with the people in your reading group, entertaining but not the best of his books. You should check out Bone White by him if you haven't read that.

    • @paulread7113
      @paulread7113 День тому

      I have read a few of his books and Bone White has been my favourite so far. I found "Come with me" to be very overrated and couldn't finish it.

    i can't get into reading seasonal things. i think it's bc i'm a mood reader. i'm gonna read Mary by nat cassidy around christmas. i'm currently struggling thru Everyone in my family has killed someone by benjamin stevenson which takes place during a winter family reunion ... it's a mystery book and it's kinda boring and making me roll my eyes 33 pages in still but like whateverrrr i have higher hopes for Mary by nat cassidy bc every booktuber i trust has praised nat cassidy at least once
