Today, I had the pleasure of talking with my good friend and avid reader, Kerry! You can follow her everywhere @kurryreads, and check out her website www.kurryreads.comIf you like my content or any of my recs, you’ll def love her stuff. We talk all things horror+thriller, how’s she able to read a book a day, what some of our fav tropes are, and of course, some of the books that freak us out! The audio is a bit jumpier this time- there was a weird ticking feedback I was getting on my end that was like ear piercing 😂 I’m assuming my mic wasn’t plugged in all the way or something?? But anyways, I edited them out, but again yeah it’s a bit jumpy. Can you tell I’m still new to this?? 😅But yeah, love you all and I’ll follow up with a list of books mentioned below!Lock Every Door by Riley SagerPretty Girls by Karin SlaughterSharp Objects by Gillian FlynnNestlings, When The Wolf Comes Home, Rest Stop, Nat CassidyCackle, Play Nice, So Thirsty, Such Sharp Teeth by Rachel HarrisonMaeve Fly by CJ LeedeTheme Music and An Evil Premise by T Marie VandellyBat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zheng by Kylie Lee BakerThe Unseen by Ania AhlbornThe Perfect Child by Lucinda BerryDead Of Winter Darcy CoatesWhen Devils Sing Xan KaurHex by Thomas Olde HeuveltToo Old For This by Samatha DowningThe Possession of Alva Diaz by Isabel CanasIsland Witch by Amanda JayatissaModel Home by Rivers SolomonDevil Saga by Stephen Graham JonesA Short Stay in Hell by Stephen L PeckWe Spread by Ian ReidWe Used To Live Here by Marcus KliewerThe Ruins by Scott SmithTj Newmans booksGone To See The Riverman by Kristofer TrianaThe Girl Next Door by Jack KetchumEarthlings by Sayaka MurataThe Troop by Nick CutterCrafting For Sinners and This Wretched Valley by Jenny KieferJar Of Hearts by Jennifer Hiller
