Bury Your Gays by Chuck Tingle
5.0
adventurous dark emotional medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

 This was such an AMAZING book. The opening premise of a writer who is being pushed to kill off his queer characters quickly turns into a creepy adventure into the difficulties of small town life and the dark sides of the film industry. We watch as a character is truly haunted by homophobia of his upbringing as well as the true haunts that were inspired by his upbringing.

I loved the layers between identity and horror. Physical manifestations of the emotional wounds suffered.

This book solidified Chuck Tingle as an auto-buy author for me!
