One thing I love about Gemma Amor: she does not give a f@#! as evidenced by the opening paragraphs of First Date.

In as many words as I’m taking for this review, she subverts sex, beautiful sunsets over the water, and even good old-fashioned run of the mill serial killing. But she does it using language (for the most part) that lulls you into believing you’re reading classical  literature. Don’t fall for it! She’s here to take us on a delightfully disturbing ride.

Spit Back the Bones by Teagan Olivia King is an eerie, American gothic horror romance with family curses, bog monsters, passionate love, deep-seated jealously, and hunger for power.
