 GREETINGS STACK WORMS!!!!!!!!!


I'm so...tired. Burned out. And it's works fault. The calls are overwhelming in numbers. Let alone how customers are acting towards us reps. Seriously, I want to be moved to chat. I hate being on the phone and if I lose this job I'm going to apply for disability. Yes, I qualify. I'm already restricted to the number of hours I can work, anyway. Doctor's orders. 

I swear I didn't use to be this broken. If you're wondering, no it wasn't my idea, it was my girlfriend's. She doesn't want me to have another suicidal meltdown. And fair enough, I don't want that to happen either, when I was in the clinic Chema was stressed out, lonely, did not take care of herself at all, and I can't do that to her again. 

Enough of my melodrama. Let's move on to some books I got: 

- Yours Cruelly, Elvira by Cassandra Peterson

- The Last Graduate by Naomi Novik

- The Invisible Life of Addie La Rue by V.E. Schwab (B&N Special Edition)

- This Poison Heart by Kalynn Bayron (Fairyloot Edition) 

- Universal Studios Monsters: A Legacy of Horror by Michael Mallory (updated & revised edition)


Halloween is fast approaching. Luckily, I got my Halloween vacation approved. That way I have a couple of days to outline a basic plot for NANOWRIMO and start my short story for the Author's Porch. 


Also, I apparently, lost my copy of One Day at Horrorland so I'm listening to the audiobook. Yeah, I'm very far behind. I'll finish it, even if I don't finish the books by the end of November. I lost my steam when I found out that 2 other (popular) readers are doing the entire original series as well. I had planned this out over a year ago. *sigh* 


Oh, well. That's all for now. I realized I hadn't posted for another week. Apologies. 


Toodles! 

Bug.

Hellbound Books' Anthology of Splatterpunk by Various

GREETINGS STACK WORMS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Goodreads says I finished this in a week but it actually only took 4 days. I read Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. Why? Because I work the other days and I'm pretty tired after my shift. So, it always looks like I take longer than I actually do. This time I read Hellbound Books' Anthology of Splatterpunk. Again, I thank HBB for providing me the free ebook to review and for partnering with me!  I really love the artwork on this cover! I won't tell you which story it goes with (at least by my guess) because that would be spoiling the story and I haven't warned you about spoilers yet. That would be very rude of me. There are a whopping 24 stories in this anthology. And I like a lot of them I think. Not many two-stars and three out of five means I enjoyed the read. Just like last time this review will be a bit different and probably much longer than usual with 24 stories to go through. But I hope you enjoy. Let's get going!  SPOILERS!...

GREETINGS STACK WORMS!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, my goddess, it's so good to be 'seeing' you all again!! It's good to be back! I know this year has been rough so far and I'm very sorry that we're all having to deal with Trump, Musk, and the fucking morons that live here in the US with me. FML.  Anyway, you're not here to read about real-life shit hitting the fan. You're here to read a review about a book that you'd like to know my opinion about...hopefully. For all I know, you could be here to gather enough damning evidence to sell me out to our new regime. Which wouldn't be hard, honestly. Either way, you're here, and that's exactly what I want. So...win-win? lol Today's review is: Satan Rides Your Daughter: One Hellish Anthology by HellBound Books Before we get into the review here are a few things about me to help with context about my mindset while reading this book. I am not Christian. I am actually a Pagan who happens to follow the Heathen...

GREETINGS STACK WORMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For the first time today, I'm reviewing a children's book: Tomb for a Zombunny by David Myriad  First, I must thank HellBound Books, Lapis Lazuli Dream Press, and David Myriad for providing me a free copy to read. Thank you for the adorable story!!! 💙💙💚💚🧟 Do I really need to go through the whole schtick? Yes? Okay, fair is fair.  SPOILER WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Duh... Trigger Warning!!! -Jewish Folklore (please, if this bothers you, go set yourself on fire.  'kay thnx die)  -Zombie gore -Gallows Humor This is a children's book so I'm not going to be very eloquent here (not that I ever am mind).  Zombunny is hopping along, searching for a place to rest. In the process, his journies are narrated by a Death's-head hawkmoth (that's right I know it's a hawkmoth). He encounters a bog Dybbuk, a Golem, a Screech Owl and Owlettes, and finally, Frankenbunny who offers Zombunny a place to rest.  It...
