I’m a bit of a baby when it comes to scary stuff, so I’m going to microdose my way through @bethanycmorrow.com's THE BODY. Got to listen to her discuss the book and so much more last night thanks to @leftbankbooks.bsky.social.

Happy book birthday, @bethanycmorrow.com 🎉

THE BODY is out today! It's terrific and twisted and twisty, and I said it "marries religious and domestic horror beautifully, wearing a bridal veil of trauma as cuts and carnage."

If you missed last night's event, check her book tour, and THE BODY 🔥
