Read No Evil

This month on Read No Evil, we're kicking off spooky season with Hampton Heights by Dan Kois.

A group of Midwestern middle school paperboys are looking to make some extra cash but one ordinary night turns into something much more monstrous.

Shaela and Ian dig into the characters, the scares, the questionable decisions, the biggest WTF moments, and whether this coming-of-age horror story actually sticks the landing.

Was that extra money really worth it?

SPOILERS AHEAD: This episode contains full spoilers and discussion of graphic and mature content.

Hey everyone, here is a quick message for the month of August. I want to thank everyone for their understanding, and I am excited to see what comes next. If you have ideas on what books we should read next, put them in the comments!

Well lookie here! At long last, a real interview with a real book author! Today, Shaela and Ian welcome local Portland author Wes See to chat about all things "Opportunity".

Like, why is it about a demonic squirrel? Could it have been a rat instead? Why don't you make the next one about a rat? And is it pronounced Jorge or George?

Come listen in as we learn these answers and chat more about the novella's inspirations and maybe a sneak peek at where the story could go next!

Pick up your own copy of "Opportunity" here (Only if you're cool with reading about a squirrel doing some pretty messed up things like eat children.)

Absolutely bonkers. It's kind of like getting the rug swept out from under you while holding a stack of glasses. Especially if that stack of glasses was a murderous lion squirrel monster!! Follow along as we finish "Opportunity" by Wes See and go through an array of emotions by the last page.

Round 2 of "Opportunity" by Wes See! Continue to follow along as it gets more visceral and raw with every chapter. Here is where you really get to see the damage a possessed squirrel can do. Listen closely as we discuss chapters 15-40.

The Finale! This week, we hash out the details of the final chapters of "My Sister, The Serial Killer" and lemmetellusumin, it's like poetry, it rhymes. We learn about Korede's true feelings on this and yes, someone does get stabbed. Btw this is the last episode for this book. Like we read the ending. In this one. The other episodes were about what happened before. Yeah. What?

Another week, another look into a world that's exactly like ours, where men struggle to show a single dimension of themselves, and then SOMEONE KILLS THEM! Woah! This week has it all: Struggling Relationships, Love and Lust, Psychopathic Tendencies, Murder by Poisoning, maybe? Find out with us as we dissect this next set of chapters of "My Sister, The Serial Killer".

Well, back at it again! Will Korede keep trying to protect her sister, even when it involves the MAN SHE LOVES?!?! Will there be more serial killing? Will there be passive-aggressive comments about it?! Listen in as we dive into our next set of chapters of Braithwaite's My Sister, The Serial Killer, where, yeah, she kind of is.

First sentence, "I killed him". Will she kill again? Probably. Tune in as Shaela and Ian start in on "My Sister The Serial Killer" by Oyinkan Braithwaite with the chapters 'Words' to 'Red.'
