This bookish meme tells the blogosphere what we’re waiting patiently (and sometimes not so patiently) for! It’s hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine!
From New York Times bestselling horror writer Stephen Graham Jones comes a classic slasher story with a twist—perfect for fans of Riley Sager and Grady Hendrix.
1989, Lamesa, Texas. A small west Texas town driven by oil and cotton—and a place where everyone knows everyone else’s business. So it goes for Tolly Driver, a good kid with more potential than application, seventeen, and about to be cursed to kill for revenge. Here Stephen Graham Jones explores the Texas he grew up in, the unfairness of being on the outside, through the slasher horror he lives but from the perspective of the killer, Tolly, writing his own autobiography. Find yourself rooting for a killer in this summer teen movie of a novel gone full blood-curdling tragic.

Why I’m Waiting: So many Nikki buzz words! Texas, slasher horror, and from the perspective of the killer. Since I’ve read the synopsis of these and seen these words together, I’ve been thinking about them non-stop. This sounds like Friday the 13th and I am SO EXCITED for this. At this point I’m on a countdown until I get this in my hands. I’ve already begged Simon and Schuster, but they didn’t answer me smh lolol
Have you heard of this? Will you be waiting on this too? Let me know in the comments!
Oh wow! I love when we get the “villain” or “killer’s” pov! This sounds like en awesome read! I am definitely keeping an eye on it! I hope the Simon and Schuster person was just busy that day and will get back to you asap!
