Adam’s Recent Updates

Hound of the Baskervilles by Adam McOmber
"A retelling that actually adds to the story, breathes (gay) life into the source material, and excites devotes of the original!
Was deeply gothic and beautiful. Very glad this recommendation was all but forced onto me. A great fit."
Jesus and John by Adam McOmber
" Aww, you guys! Thank you! Jesus thanks you as well btw. "

Quotes by Adam McOmber  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I had no lock that could be picked. If anything, I was the landscape behind the door, and even on that day in the ruin, I was still only beginning to comprehend my own flora and fauna.”
Adam McOmber, The White Forest

“I was familiar with the realms of unnatural, for I myself was an unnatural. Not a monster in appearance; I looked like other young women, though perhaps not as primped and manicured. But I wasn't the same as other girls. My friends believed I was sick or gifted. Either way, I was unfortunate. Something entirely new upon the earth.”
Adam McOmber, The White Forest

“Just before he passed behind the hedge at the end of the drive, he turned to look back at Stoke Morrow and caught me spying on him. His shining eyes were so cruel, and before I could close the curtain, I saw the flash of an awful grin on his face. It was a grin that said he knew I'd come around. Sooner or later, I'd fall in line.”
