You might think it’s weird that a guy who is all about love writes horror, but to me, Tingle’s horror is very much like T. Kingfisher’s — terrible stuff is gonna happen, but it’s anchored by characters who actually care, and who you want to see survive.

Book Review: Hijab Butch Blues by Lamya H
Memoir is not a genre I reach for often, but I’ve actually found myself reading a lot of them this summer.
Book Review: Bed and Breakup by Susie Dumond
What’s worse — forced proximity to your ex, or realizing that all the beautiful work you’d done has been covered over with a bland remodel by the management company that ran the B&B in your absence?
Book Review: The Transitive Properties of Cheese by Ann LeBlanc
As of today I have read 113 books so far this year and it is one of my absolute favorites.
Book Review: Bad Company by Megan Greenwell
I’m sorry, I just don’t even know if I can properly review this book. Every time I think about private equity, and all the ways the rich can get richer, while the rest of us find that healthcare and safe homes and good jobs and local news are harder and harder to access, I just get so angry.
Book Review: The Reformatory by Tananarive Due
This was one of those books I had to really psych myself up to read, because I knew it was going to be at the edge of my horror tolerance, but I had heard good things about it. And I’m so glad I added it to my summer TBR.
Book Review: Someplace Generous edited by Elaina Ellis and Ember Flame
Someplace Generous is subtitled “an inclusive romance anthology” and I think it’s important to consider this a collection of romantic and erotic fiction, rather than expecting it each story to adhere to the capital-R Romance genre.
Book Review: Inventing the Renaissance by Ada Palmer
This book is a commitment — the audiobook is 30 hours long! — but it’s so entertaining that it feels a lot more like bingeing a few seasons of a juicy historical drama TV show than cramming for a history exam.
Book Review: Moral Ambition by Rutger Bregman
I picked up Moral Ambition by Rutger Bregman expecting something as thought-provoking as his previous two works. Instead I got something that felt almost like it could be featured on the If Books Could Kill podcast.
Book Review: Wearing the Lion by John Wiswell
I was really excited for this book when I read the synopsis, and I’m so glad it lived up to my expectations.
