Helluva Luxe

by Natalie Essary

“A truly gothic urban fantasy with lush prose and complex characters, that delivers exactly what it promises—Helluva Luxe is a gritty, Inanna-like descent into the dark and magical nightclub of your wildest, coolest dreams.”
—Livia Llewellyn, Shirley Jackson Award finalist and author of Engines of Desire


On the corner of 13th and Fascination stands one helluva perfect Goth bar, where there’s always a seductive selection of fashion, music, and drama. But when an unknown DJ shows up at the door and lands the best gig in town without paying her dues, everyone’s curiosity is piqued higher than Morrissey’s hair. Especially that of the model who falls for her, the bartender who befriends her, and the doorman who’d kill to keep the family together.


Helluva Luxe is a humorous, dark and sexy story about making strangers into family and seeing the world the way you want to see it. So if you’ve ever grilled a cheese with a blowtorch, painted teeth down the side of your ’59 Chevy, or borrowed your dog’s collar to wear out on a Saturday night, then you’ll dig the Luxe.

I loved this book. It took me places I'd never been before, not in my imagination and certainly not in my 'real' life.

I love Natalie's writing style and I'm itching for the next book of hers. I need run away again to the Luxe! <3

as a sideline, the list of Goth songs throughout the book was a nice playlist.
