These themes will vary! It could be based off of some book mail I just received, pop culture, something personal to me, a headline from the news, a trend I noticed when I was buying books for my library system, etc. I hope you stick around to see all the themes and book recs I come up with!
Today’s Theme: Scream-Like Slashers!
I swear I have been talking about slashers all week! And I promise I’m not begging this time. This time I’m just talking about these two YA slashers that are like a beloved horror movie, Scream! In this one, there’s a mascot who seems to be the most beloved thing at the school. But suddenly there’s someone targeting everyone who has ever donned the Peaches suit. If it sounds weird, it’s because it is lol But the secrets that this book uncovers and the random things that happen will make you say WHAT?! outloud. Or at least it did for me lol
Ok so for this one, I heard its a cross between You’re Not Supposed to Die Tonight by Kalynn Bayron and Scream. Immediately YES. But then I found out that there’s a book involved too? And if you know me, you know I have an unhealthy obsession with books about books lol so this was right up my alley. I need it. But it seems that this book is predicting some new murders to happen in a town known to the locals as “Slasherville.” I knew I needed this as soon as I saw the cover. Unfortunately this one doesn’t come out until March 2025, but keep an eye out. I’ll be reading this one as soon as I get it in my hands!
Well, there you go! Here I’m just going to talk about why I grouped these two books together. I hope you enjoyed a look at this small part of the books. For a full synopsis of the book or to add it to your TBR, click the picture and it will take you to their Storygraph. The link on the caption will take you to it’s Goodreads.
