Wendy Dalrymple returns to talk about her Pink Horror take on the slasher, Killer Summer. This decades spanning story goes from 90s nostalgia gone wrong to a story of a survivor taking their story into their own hands and refusing to be someone else's final girl. This is a worthy addition to 2026's slasher summer and one that should definitely be on your TBR

Mikayla Randolph's Not Your Final Girl is a razor-sharp modern-day slasher retelling of Tess of the D'urbervilles. This is the perfect book to add to your summer TBR and Randolph tells us all about how it began with righteous anger and ended with a bident. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did!

Keala Kendall's new novel That Which Feeds Us is a brilliant Hawaiian Gothic that will keep you guessing and glued to the page to the very end. Join us for a really wonderful conversation where Keala tells us about her inspirations for the book, the true history of the settler colonization of Hawaii, and so much more!

Grace Reynolds has created the Honky Tonk slasher of your country music nightmares with Neon Moon, a brutal, emotional, thrill ride of a novella that will have you itching to throw on some cowboy boots and take a couple shots.

In what might be our most unhinged, most insightful, and most fun conversation yet, Grace talks her inspirations, this hellish landscape we call our present reality, and all manner of varmints and critters.

Amber Dean's bravura and absolutely unhinged first novel, Hysterical, is a glitzy, drug fueled look at the social scene of New York City in the early 2010s. It gets violent, it gets crazy, and it's somehow both beautiful and gag inducing. Join us for a freewheeling conversation that fits the book perfectly.

Rebecca Cuthbert's work is an absolute joy to read, dark, smart, and creepy, and a conversation with her is just as amazing, as you will find out when you listen to this episode!

Annie Neugebauer has been writing incredible short stories and poetry for a long time, and we are lucky to be able to read them in one collection for the first time with You Have to Let Them Bleed.

Join us as we talk about the stories and how they were chosen, as well as her trilogy of interconnected novellas, The Outsiders Sequence.

Cillian Black's debut novella, Holy Ghost, is a creepy, disturbing look at the lengths we would go to be able to say one final goodbye to a loved one. Listen as we discuss Catholic guilt, zombies, and surprisingly good direct to video sequels.

Carter Keane's excellent debut Novella Morsel will have you cheering to bring down the capitalist patriarchy. This book is fun, brutal, smart, and skillfully written. Our conversation was so much fun and we believe Carter is truly a talent to watch! We can't wait to see what they do in the future!
