Cranberry Cove - Hailey Piper 🎧🌈⚧️💙📚🩸⚡️
Drenched in dread, this Lovecraftian Noir of gender norms and masculine identity is a hard-boiled nightmare fantasia. Dark and upsetting. ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/5 @haileypiperfights.bsky.social @badhandbooks.bsky.social #WomenInHorrorMonth

We might have a little something from this one later this year… 🦑
THE THING
Hey! @toddkeisling.com in the house.
Have you read Silk and Sinew!? Highly recommend but don't just take it from me ---> It's nominated for a Bram Stoker Award!!!
If you've read STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS or any book by any author, please leave a kind review somewhere in a proper review receptacle. Leaving these reviews helps the book, helps the bookish ecosystem, and also we are sustained by them as we sit in the corner and greedily gnaw on them like squirrels.

Read this one outside with the birds today. Thanks to recent unseasonably warm weather, my little reading spot is full of flowers and bees. 🖤
Buncha pre-orders went out today. A bunch more will go out tomorrow.
Awesome! So glad you liked it.
Book 47:
Dead Red and Razor - Tim Lebbon 💙📚⚡️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A ripping revenge yarn set amongst the world’s best assassins-for-hire. Like Battle Royale and John Wick combined, then directed by Robert Rodriguez: A brief, bloody, bullet-spray of violence and road grit. Get it! Thanks @badhandbooks.bsky.social!
