Judah and Noland are trapped together in their RV while outside the rain has suddenly become acid. Through the windows they witness deer and other animals have their skin melted off. They are both also recovering from a traumatic event. Despite their past and terrifying present situation, they are so sweet and caring towards each other. Also, I really like that this has excellent disability representation, as Noland has diabetes and Judah has anxiety. I'm really glad I found this on Godless, and I am definitely gonna read more stuff by A.L. Davidson.

Reading this was so stressful but it is so well-written and intriguing that I had to keep turning the page. The things poor Teacher endures while he's trapped in the attic are awful. :( I look forward to reading more stuff by Emily Lynn.

The best thing to do when accused of satanism is to just embrace Satan. 😈 This comic is the story of four teens, Jackson, Lupe, Theresa, and Mitch, who are used as a scapegoat when a woman is murdered and had a pentagram carved onto her forehead. The story is compelling and the way the friends look out for each other is so sweet. Also, George Williams's illustrations are really cool, especially the design for the demon. After reading this, I am now more excited to read Emmett Nahil's upcoming novella From the Belly.

CW: Animal death, death of a parent, emotional abuse, body shaming, fatphobia

This novella serves as a good example as to why people should never go to a sketchy doctor who offers a quick fix that seems too good to be true. Dr. Trevor Adams has come up with a method for people to lose weight without exercise and eating healthy. He injects  them with pygmy shrew DNA. 

What Dr. Adams failed to take into consideration is that pygmy shrew need to eat every two hours or they die of starvation. All of his patients are famous and wealthy, so when they attack and eat people, the media notices. 

Things escalate at a rapid pace and get worse as the book progresses. This is my first time reading something by Wrath James White and it's definitely not my last.

Every story in this brilliant crime horror anthology is so unique, so creative, and not a single one of them glorifies cops.
