How did these get here?

Stay With Me by Luna K. Wicked may be one of the darkest romance books I’ve read. I almost feel like it’s pushing pitch black with its content and subject matter. #booksky #darkromance

I've been horrible at keeping up with Blue Sky. Going to post a bunch of stuff I've already posted on TikTok and IG.

Wait until you read the next book, Hollow.

I just finished Summer of the Monsters by David Sodergren and gave it a 4.5. I love his work, but lort jeebus his endings are intense and never go the way you hope. #booksky

Booksirens needs a better way of finding and following authors.

Here's a question for readers, authors, and publishers: Are book review sites and blogs still viewed as valuable resources, or have social media sites like IG and TikTok replaced them? If I'm a book reviewer, is it worth my time and money to set up a book blog? #booksky

Where are the extreme horror and dark romance authors?

My review of Sinners: It’s the best movie I’ll see all year.

My review of Terrifier 3: The story was meh, and the gore was goofy. Acting was good, though. 2.5/5

Bunny Room by Oscary Brady
My reviews keep getting longer. It may be time for an actual website. #splatterpunk #booksky 🩸📚

Thought this was just slasher splatterpunk—but Janitor by Oscar Brady surprised me. A clever blend of 80s horror vibes, true crime, and movie obsession. Rough audio at times, but I’d still listen again. Oscar Brady nailed the schlocky nostalgia. #horroraudiobook #splatterpunk 🩸📚

I went into Genital Rot mostly blind. I knew it involved a death metal band and... that’s about it. What I got was a chaotic, blood-soaked descent into depravity that makes The Evil Dead look like School of Rock. #extremehorror 🩸📚 #booksky

The Goodreads reviews of Hitched by Lauren Biel are just ridiculous. Some folks need to calm their tatas.

Roll for Initiative by Lesley A Camphouse
I love D&D, so when I heard about this book, I knew this was one I needed to read. #extremehorror 🩸📚

Disco Rice by Robert Essig. I kept the spice meter because necrophilia could be considered spicy? Maybe? 🤷‍♂️
