Happy March everyone! For this month, we will be reading I WAS A TEENAGE SLASHER by Stephen Graham Jones!
About the group: we are a group of nonjudgmental readers who like to talk all things books. Please feel free to attend even if you did not finish the book or did not enjoy it (though note will will spill on spoilers).
About the space: we meet at Unscrewed Theater's training room. Follow the signs! You are welcome to bring food or drink for yourself or to share (alcohol is okay).
About the fee: though I would much prefer to make this a free event, with Meetup's increased host fee this is no longer possible for me. Rest assured the $3 fee only goes towards keeping this group alive and is in no way a profit seeking fee.
Please message me with thoughts/questions/comments.
About the book (via Goodreads):
From New York Times bestselling horror writer Stephen Graham Jones comes a classic slasher story with a twist—perfect for fans of Riley Sager and Grady Hendrix.
1989, Lamesa, Texas. A small west Texas town driven by oil and cotton—and a place where everyone knows everyone else’s business. So it goes for Tolly Driver, a good kid with more potential than application, seventeen, and about to be cursed to kill for revenge. Here Stephen Graham Jones explores the Texas he grew up in, and shared sense of unfairness of being on the outside through the slasher horror Jones loves, but from the perspective of the killer, Tolly, writing his own autobiography. Find yourself rooting for a killer in this summer teen movie of a novel gone full blood-curdling tragic.
