    any chance we got other religions in this mix of horror, or is it just christianity based? (i have most of these books added to my tbr soooo i don’t really care either way I’m just curious)

  • Buddy Finder Summer 2026

    I hope y'all are doing well (and happy first day of Pride)! Here is the long awaited 'buddy finder' for the summer of 2026.

    How it works -> You post a comment with the book and give any info that you feel is relevant for a potential buddy to know. Ex: Polterbook comments "Looking to read Earthlings by Sayaka Murata either late July or early August. I'm hoping to finish this book within a 7 to 10 day period." -> Post each book in a separate comment if you're wanting to read more than one of the books so that potential buddies can see/find it easier.

    Rules -> Please make sure it's a book already in the quest. The point is to try to knock out some of your TBR books while also getting closer to a badge. -> Be kind to each other (OBVIOUSLY) -> The idea is that the readalong happens during the summer season so try to plan the readalong with that in mind.

    I'm going to temporarily pin this post so that it's easy to find. Summer 2026 runs from June 1st, 2026 to August 31, 2026. Get your summer spooky reading on!

    I love meta slashers, but they're only fun when the story gives you little nods, not the most obvious winks every other second "Look at me, I'M SELF-AWARE". There is a scene where the characters repeat "It would be crazy if this was a book" like five times. I GOT IT THE FIRST TIME.

    This was also very painfully ya, which is not a bad thing in general, but it is not something I personally enjoy. There were too many references to webtoons, bl and words like tsundere were being used. I found "Duke from the North" jokes unfunny. One of the characters kept saying things "I will be the second lead the audience likes!". Spoiler: I didn't like her, because of annoying lines like that.

    If I were to judge it purely as a slasher this book was very unremarkable. Not one interesting kill. Confrontations with the villain were weak. There was a perfect opportunity for doing something very interesting with the final girl trope and I had to just watch the author let that opportunity slip. A non-binary final girl (said character uses that term to describe themselves) could be so cool! Why were they so bland instead?

    The ending was very predictable. I knew who the villain would turn out to be and their motivations were honestly ridiculous.
