Bleed for You

She never seems to get around to it. It drives poor Freddy nuts and has him shaking his fists at the cruel heavens. The virgin blood boiling in his veins can’t wait.

Really? Really? The description says it all and then some. No need to read the book. This read was barely alright if I wanted to read about a psycho loner nerd with a warped since of reality and your typical jocks. I think I made that sound better than it was. I wouldn't even classify it as horror and the cool cover is totally misleading. Would not recommend. I was left unsatisfied. Borrow it

What can I say...you had me hooked even before "he threw on a Marilyn Manson hoodie and flashed a pair of devil horns at the Ministry poster tacked above his bed…" I can just imagine the soundtrack that would be playing in his room when he's….

A delightfully sick and twisted little tale that isn't for the typical steven-king-esq horror enthusiast. It's fast paced, brutal, creepy, and gross. And thanks to the care the author took to include those small details that make sure you linger long enough on a situation to make it a very graphic horror you'll enjoy how uncomfortable this book can make you feel as you realize what's happening!

A nasty little novella that you won't put down. When it was over, I was left to wonder about a certain character's madness and when it really began. Don't miss this one!

Brutal - but then love often is.
