It’s in the F*cking Water!

by Matt Micheli

It's 4th of July weekend and Bayley and her friends are back from college and ready to party. Their plan is to get drunk, tube the river, set the sky ablaze with fireworks, and screw their brains out. But something has arrived on a bright green meteor that has a different plan, one that takes screwing to an intergalactic, terrifying level.

IT’S IN THE FUCKING WATER! pays homage to horny 80's slashers and zombie movies with an excessive amount of sex, gore, violence, and fun. For both b-movie sci-fi junkies and gore-whores alike, it'll make you think twice before wearing a white bikini or stepping foot in the river this summer.

I love a book with a b-rated 80s movie type slasher vibe and this was just that!! Filled with sex and gore this little novella really packs a punch! If you’re looking for a quick read and don’t mind a raunchy little zombie romp, then check this one out!

Matt is one of those writers that never ceases to amaze me. I was hooked from the very first page right up to the very last page. I couldn’t put the book down and I finished it in one sitting.

Imagine celebrating 4th of July weekend at the river and all hell breaks loose. This story has some slasher/zombie 80’s vibes to it and why the hell not? throw some gore and sex into it. This is what I love about Matt’s books. They take me way back to when I was younger. I’ve always loved those slasher b-rated movies so Matt did an awesome job with this book in my very humble opinion.
