Sometimes you SHOULD judge a book by it's cover, especially when it's a cover as gorgeous as this one!! The longer I look at it the more things I'm noticing. I love it!

Right? It's one of the prettiest and creepiest covers I've ever seen!

I love the concept of “sunshiney horror”! I definitely need that kind of energy sitting by the pool.

I'm too much of a wuss for horror... I've only tried one 🙈 I'm halfway through The Interestings by Meg Wolitzer and it's shaping up to be one of my favorites of this summer!

Weirdly enough, I own a ton of Wolitzer's books and have still not read one! Have you read others by her, or just this one?

OO I love a horror year-round! This one sounds exciting. I've recently enjoyed Sundial by Catriona Ward and The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones.
