AN INSTANT USA TODAY AND INDIE BESTSELLER
An Indie Next and LibraryReads Pick - One of the Best Books of Summer 2024 by Esquire, Paste, HuffPost, and Publishers Weekly!

"Fast-paced and brimming with queer representation, it brings fictional monsters to life while exploring the real-life evils of homophobia. This book is Tingle's declaration: Love is real, and so are monsters."

--Gabino Iglesias, The New York Times"Tingle cements his place in horror with this gory romp...[his] vivid, visceral storytelling combines with prescient insight into the corporate dynamics that rule mainstream media. The result is smart, subtle, and a bloody good time." --Publishers Weekly (STARRED REVIEW)"Tingle burst onto the traditional publishing scene with one of the best books of 2023 (Camp Damascus), but his follow-up is even better ... taking readers on a highly entertaining, fast-paced ride, filled with thought-provoking satire, original monsters, and some of the most realistic characters they will encounter on any page, all to prove that love is real and horror itself is, at its core, a celebration of life."
