Naramauke

Teen Killers Club #4

by Lily Sparks

Erik was born with a broken heart.

He can't feel love. He hates kissing. He gets nauseous at the idea of being a boyfriend.

And then he meets the Girl from Hell.

The Teen Killers Club #1 best-parts version from Erik's POV, only available until the publication of Teen Killers at Large (Teen Killers Club #3) in October of 2023.

105 pages, ebook

About the author

Born in Norwalk Connecticut, started my career in Los Angeles. Hid out in the mountains for a while, now I'm setting down roots by the beach.

Telling stories is what I do to be happy and help make sense of the world.

I hope you have as much fun reading my books as I do writing them.

Naramauke is not sold by any major retailer. It is a ghost book that belongs only to my fans. If you want to read it you will have to contact and negotiate with them.

Erik has been a very meaningful character to write for. His need to be seen and loved leapt off the page and redefined the series from the first draft. Thank you, Erik, for getting in my head.

"Erik believed he was incapable of liking or loving, but he knew he valued Signal highly. How was a rational assessment less real than an emotional claim? His objective view of Signal as someone rare and precious was surely more valid than Javier’s virginity fetish. Erik would be careful with her, and cheerfully maim anyone who wasn’t. Then, after her name was cleared, she could return to her real life. No damage done."

I love it when novellas show me the other half of a romance’s POV when meeting the MC/narrator of the main series. Not only do we get backstory, but we get some *chef’s kiss* content.

I loved seeing Erik’s thoughts, especially since he’s kinda delulu and okay with it. Man’s was determined to get Signal’s love and I’m so weak for that stuff. It was so cute seeing him and Signal from the start again, especially seeing Erik’s backstory weave into his present personality. I don’t even remember if the conversations about love were in the first or second book, but now I want to reread them to see her side of it.

I always love a glimpse into the mind of other characters, and this one made me love Erik even more!

Ma ora io posso desiderare tutta la serie dal punto di vista di Erik? Possiamo avere anche un'enciclopedia nata dalla sua mente, vista dai suoi occhi e raccontata dalla sua voce?

Questa novella funge per un attimo da prequel, ma poi segue gli eventi del primo libro - stavolta non dal punto di vista di Signal, ma da quello di Erik.

Ah, l'avevo già detto?

Va però letta dopo il secondo volume della trilogia perché in Teen Killers in Love si scoprono cose sul passato di Erik che, leggendo prima Naramauke, oltre ad essere spoiler non avrebbero comunque senso per chi non ha una conoscenza pregressa di personaggi e storia.

Scopriamo che Erik sapeva già chi fosse Signal prima ancora che arrivasse al campo e che il suo caso ha risvegliato la sua curiosità per diversi motivi. Leggendo la serie ed essendo nella testa di Signal, Erik resta sempre un mistero per il lettore - resta sempre il dubbio se Erik finga di tenerci e finga ogni sentimento solo per opportunismo oppure se a Signal ci tenga davvero e leggere della sua curiosità, del suo interesse ovviamente egoistico inizialmente e vedere il suo atteggiamento mutare man mano che entra in contatto con lei è qualcosa che, per chi si era innamorata di Erik già al primo libro, toglie veramente il fiato.

Oh, Erik.

So obsessed with Erik, this book and the whole teen killers club series. Being in Eriks head and learning more about his backstory was really interesting to read, I read this right after finishing the first book and it gave good insight for why Erik made decisions he did in teen killers in love. I love these characters and I am so happy I found this series.

Erik's POV is exactly what I expected the inside of his head to be.

Just putting this out there, I freelance as an audiobook editor for a major publishing company, if anyone has the means/talent to record I would be happy to collaborate on an audiobook version of Naramauke so it’s accessible to everyone

I can't even function right now.

This is absolutely what the series needed, giving us a glimpse into Erik's beautifully terrifying mind, to gain insight into his childhood, teen years, his relationship with both his mom and Skye, and how he falls for Signal. I'm dead. Actual review to come.

This short but surprisingly deep dive into Erik's POV during Teen Killers Club was amazing and lets the reader know all about what makes Erik Erik and why he does what he does. Be sure you read TKC and TKIL before digging into Naramauke!
