Always a good day when #horrorbooks is trending. What's the best scary thing you read recently? Doesn't have to be new.

Possibly we've invented un-apologetics? Why isn't there more SFF about faith, and how does Lewis's sci-fi predict the awfulness of the Transformers franchise? Plus, it all smacks of gender. Episode 04, PERELANDRA with @TaylorWDriggers, is live: ancillaryreviewofbooks.org/2024/08/12/a-m…
