Clearly, Halloween is in the air y’all. The other week I gobbled up Ten by Gretchen McNeil in about 15 minutes. Actually, that’s hyperbole.

Maybe it’s because I don’t really have much experience with ‘boy-meets-girl, girl-kills-people’ type of stories but honestly I didn’t find ANYTHING average about it. The prose is exquisitely beautiful and pulled me […]
