Book Review – There’s Someone Inside Your House

I have never read Perkin’s other work and I am not her regular audience. However, when I saw this pop up on a few top ten horror novels of 2017, I had to check it out.

This is not splatterpunk or extreme horror and it doesn’t sell itself as such It’s a CW level slasher/romance with a few moments of squeamish fun. I thought it was great. It read like a new season of Scream the TV Show and I had

Buck’s Quotes

“My favorite kind of musical experience is to feel afterward that your heart is filled up and transformed, like it is pumping a whole new kind of blood into your veins. This is what it is to be a fan: curious, open, desiring for connection, to feel like art has chosen you, claimed you as its witness.”
― Carrie Brownstein, Hunger Makes Me a Modern Girl: A Memoir

Are you familiar with the Pirates Adventures with... series? (I recommended one to you) These little books are genius, hilarious, clever, and totally unique. I have all of them and am reading a third one. They seem to be out of print, but I found them all on Bookfinder for under $4 each. They are right up your alley! Hope you have an invigorating semester. --Tisa
