How to Kill a Guy in Ten Ways

Eve Kellman

Are you on a date that doesn’t feel right? Can’t shake that creepy guy at the bar? Worried you’re being followed home? Message M. After one too many terrifying encounters, Millie Masters sets up a hotline for women who feel unsafe walking home alone at night: Message M. But very quickly she realises that there’s much more to be done to help the women who call in. Because the men just do it again the next night, and the next, and the next… And when her own sister is assaulted on a night out, the temptation to take the law into her own hands becomes too much to resist. Because M can also stand for murder… A deliciously dark, hilariously twisted serial killer thriller with a villainous female lead readers can’t help but root for, perfect for fans of Bella Mackie’s How to Kill Your Family, Oyinkan Braithwaite’s My Sister, the Serial Killer, or who enjoyed watching You and now wants to take revenge.

Help me out of my slump 🤞

I read a lot this year, and in August I kind of started slumping but I was able to keep going by reading weird books I would normally never read, but eventually that wore off as well. I was fine with not reading for the rest of the year, but I know that if I don’t push myself out of the funk it might carry on for years (like it has before) SO:

If you have any fun, short, interesting books PLEASE let me know. I like romcoms to get out of my slump, but a fantasy will do as well! 🧡

Percentage Update for CR

Tbh… I’m not a fan of the percentage update while reading. I don’t get the hype 🤷🏼‍♀️ I think it’s more work than necessary. I totally get the reading list updates, or reading goal updates. What does everyone else think?? What am I missing??

I’m curious why it was important enough to be added

Anyone into horror audiobooks?

I'm an indie audio producer from the UK. I created a dark and immersive horror audio series which I'm giving away for free for spooky season. Anyone fancy a listen to something new, for free, and giving an independent creator a little boost! 😃

EDIT: I'm just gonna put it here in case you do want to listen. Just head to www.albionbyrd.com and enter the code CONRAD for the complete full series for free.

The Sleep Experiment (World's Scariest Legends, #2)

Jeremy Bates

In 1954, at the start of the Cold War, the Soviet military offered four political prisoners their freedom if they participated in an experiment requiring them to remain awake for fourteen days while under the influence of a powerful stimulant gas. The prisoners ultimately reverted to murder, self-mutilation, and madness. None survived. In 2018, Dr. Roy Wallis, an esteemed psychology professor at UC Berkeley, is attempting to recreate the same experiment during the summer break in a soon-to-be demolished building on campus. He and two student assistants share an eight-hour rotational schedule to observe their young Australian test subjects around the clock. What begins innocently enough, however, morphs into a nightmare beyond description that no one could have imagined--with, perhaps, the exception of Dr. Roy Wallis himself.

Life Is Short and Then You Die

Kelley Armstrong

Mystery Writers of America's first teen anthology, edited by #1 New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong. Adolescence is a time of “firsts.” First kiss. First love. First loss. First job. The first taste of adult responsibilities, and the first look at an independent life away from both the restrictions and the security of home. And in this case, a very different type of “first”: murder. This short story collection of murder mysteries adds a sinister spin to the joy and pain of firsts that have always been a major part of life, whether it be high school cliques who take the term “backstabbing” too seriously, stumbling upon a body on the way home from school, or receiving a Snapchat message that promises something deadly. Contributors include Barry Lyga, Caleb Roehrig, Emmy Laybourne, Jonathan Maberry, R.L. Stine, Rachel Vincent, Steven Hockensmith, Y.S. Lee, and more! An Imprint Book

Love to Hate

Happy Friday Everyone! I would like to consider myself as a lover not a hater, but there are just some books I read that I can't stand. And it just irks me when I see so many people love them. So, what is a book that just gets on your specific nerves that no one else seems to understand. For me it's The Cruel Prince by Holly Black, Alchemised by SenLinYu and Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros. Ok I just had to get that off my chest. Also, I will say this is my personal preference, and I have chosen to die on this hill.

Good Omens—The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch

Terry Pratchett

According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies, written in 1655, before she exploded), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner. So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis is rising, frogs are falling, tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon—both of whom have lived amongst Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle—are not actually looking forward to the coming Rapture. And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist . . .

I know this probably isn’t priority #1 but is Dark Mode on the roadmap?

Would love to have a dark mode, I seem to do most of my obsessive list checking at night lol.

Vampires of El Norte

Isabel Cañas

Vampires and vaqueros face off on the Texas-Mexico border in this supernatural western from the author of The Hacienda. As the daughter of a rancher in 1840s Mexico, Nena knows a thing or two about monsters—her home has long been threatened by tensions with Anglo settlers from the north. But something more sinister lurks near the ranch at night, something that drains men of their blood and leaves them for dead. Something that once attacked Nena nine years ago. Believing Nena dead, Néstor has been on the run from his grief ever since, moving from ranch to ranch working as a vaquero. But no amount of drink can dispel the night terrors of sharp teeth; no woman can erase his childhood sweetheart from his mind. When the United States attacks Mexico in 1846, the two are brought abruptly together on the road to war: Nena as a curandera, a healer striving to prove her worth to her father so that he does not marry her off to a stranger, and Néstor as a member of the auxiliary cavalry of ranchers and vaqueros. But the shock of their reunion—and Nena’s rage at Néstor for seemingly abandoning her long ago—is quickly overshadowed by the appearance of a nightmare made flesh. And unless Nena and Néstor work through their past and face the future together, neither will survive to see the dawn.
