In this episode of Quills & Chills, I’m joined by USA Today bestselling author Luke Dumas to talk about Nothing Tastes as Good, a body-horror thriller about a man over 300 pounds who joins a clinical trial for a miracle weight-loss drug and starts changing faster than he can understand. The results are extreme. So are the side effects, including missing time and urges he can’t explain.

We get into the psychology behind it, the slippery pull of becoming someone new, and how the book builds tension through fragmented storytelling and strained relationships.

If you like your horror a little uncomfortable, this one sticks with you.
