    Anyone else remember the Internet Girls series?

    ttyl / ttfn / l8r, g8r ? Loved reading those in middle school and got the same thrill reading this book (but, you know, as an adult in a capitalist society who loves snooping through slack messages and stories where weird shit starts to happen out of nowhere). Anyone have any book recs that use the same IM/DM formatting like this and have a good story? Preferably something weird like this one!

    ??? what in the hell was this. it felt like an outline of a story, and not a very good one at that. really messy and stiff and just trying way too hard to be "twisty". if this is of the same quality of mcfadden's full-length works then i genuinely don't understand the hype.

  • recs based off the tv show "from"

    hello everyone! i was wondering if anyone has book recs with similar plot points to the series "FROM"? for anyone who hasn't seen it: it's a horror show centered in a town where people arrive but can't leave, and every night 'monsters' come out. it's one of my favorite shows so i'd love some books with a similar plot/vibe!
