Evil Apples. Need I say more?
Okay, fine, I'll say a little bit more.
The Ruby Slipper (Harrowsblack) Apple. Have you tried it yet? It's so dark it's almost black, and it will cure all of your ailments and make you better and stronger in every way and improve your life beyond measure, and look! Everyone you know is eating this apple, they can't get enough. Go on, just take a bite, it'll all be fine...
Chuck Wendig's fairytale-esque horror novel about evil apples is deliciously terrifying. I am desperately craving an apple right now, but also I'm uncertain if I will ever eat an apple again.
If you like your fairy tales with a heaping portion of body horror, a dash of obsession, and a spoonful of eldritch monsters, this is the novel for you.
Go on, take a bite.

Maeve Fly is the novel for the person who loves the Disney Parks as much as they love Horror.
It’s for the person who listens to Halloween music all year round.
It’s for the person who doesn’t bat an eye at gore and depravity in their movies and novels.
It’s for the person who laments the lack of female serial killers in the genre.
Maeve Fly is the novel for the person who hears the pitch “Disneyland’s Elsa by day, American Psycho by night” and responds with, “sign me all the way up”.
It’s me. I’m the person Maeve Fly is for.

A terrifying and heartrending mashup of the horrors of parenthood, disability, and vampires. This book will be sticking with me for a long time.
