Probably not gonna hear much from Otis anymore as he was caught recently sharing naked pictures of readers with another author and joking about a reader's SA....
In fact, Judith pulled 4 of her books because they involved OB
I hope you don't mind, but I pinned your comment so other people can see what I clearly missed.
It's so disappointing. You're supposed to write about terrible people, not be a terrible person! 😒
@@Scare-o-lyn in case you weren't aware, Stephen Cooper was the other author he was sharing pics with. He was also a booktuber but his channel is now gone.
@@shaunhupp1836 Oh shit him? I was wondering where he went. it's odd because one of his books just got an audible cover.
Great vid, really loved! My husband and I live and breathe horror, and
when the summer gets hot and dreadful with too much sun, we delve into
horror and Halloween and all things spooky to cool down.

Thank you! The psychological torment of horror can distract from the physical discomfort of overheating for sure! 😂 A solid plan!
Just found your channel today, watched the wrath James white video. Really love your genuine vibe and reviews, esp now it seems like a trend for TH-camrs and tiktokers to shit on ppl for even reading the genre.
Thank you! Yeah, it's one thing to share an opinion about not liking something. It's a whole 'nother thing to actively pursue yucking someone's yum simply because you want to jump on a bandwagon.
@@Scare-o-lyn precisely my point, and lmao! 'yucking someone's yum' has now been added to my vocabulary. Looking forward to your future videos
First, love your channel name! Second, thanks for the reading recs.
3rd, My husband and I are scary and we wear Butterscotch perfume which everyone says smells good which now amuses me, haha.
Thank you! If your husband and you are "scary," the butterscotch smell can just lull people into a (false or accurate) sense of security! 😂
Love your videos! Keep it up!
Wholesome! Thank you! 😊
Another awesome video! 2 of these seemed eespecially good.
Bluejay sounds really interesting, added it to my summer TBR.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
Great video. I'll definitely give Bluejay a whirl - Megan Stockton seems an interesting author.
I hope you like it! Both books I've read from her have been really atmospheric.
My favorite Sonnet books are probably For the Sake Of & For the Sake Of 2. The plots follow the usual kidnapping/snuff/red room tropes, but what she does with the framework (particularly in the second one) is increasingly outrageous and intense.
Another extreme book worth reading is "What Good Girls Do" by Jonathan Butcher. It's the most horrifying and haunting book I've read in the genre. It has a sequel, "What Good Men Do," but it seems unnecessary.
Thank you so much for the recommendations! I have 'What Good Girls Do' on my TBR, but it sounds like I should move it up the list!
@@Scare-o-lyn Yes, the character work is particularly well done. There's a scene in which someone who has been held captive her entire life experiences the outside world for the first time which is just beautifully written. But it disturbed me more than Delany's "Hogg" so TW TW TW.
The Judith Sonnet book I've enjoyed the most was Fetal Backwash (not part of a writing challenge) just because it's fun and gross though I admit I've only read 4 of her books so far.
I wouldn't look forward to any more Otis Bateman books he and another EH author have been involved in controversy lately and has deleted all his social media and authors he's worked with have removed those collaborated books from sale where they can.
As always I love your channel, you express yourself so well and capture a lot of my own feelings about the genre in a matter of fact way, looking forward to more.
Oh gosh. That's so genuinely disappointing about Otis Bateman. Ugh. Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I won't be recommending him again.
Thank you for the kind words and the recommendation! Added to the TBR!
Thanks for these cool reviews!
If you're really looking for extreme horror, check out "The Pig" & "The House" by Edward Lee.
Thank you for the recommendation! I haven't read him yet!
