What the Fuck was That? By Bridgett Nelson<\/a> – a collection of 3 short-ish stories guaranteed to help keep you awake at night. Especially while camping. Alone. In the dark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think this is me putting my toe in the wading pool of splatterpunk. It can\u2019t be full on splatterpunk. That or I\u2019m just desensitized, or I just way overhyped it to myself. Either way, I\u2019ll give her other book, A Bouquet of Viscera<\/a>, a read before jumping into what I think is the deep end. I\u2019m looking at you, Woom. Ain\u2019t lyin. I\u2019m scared. Side note: I went to A Bouquet of Viscera after finishing WTFWT? when Amazon informed me that I already purchased it in April of last year. A nice surprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getaway, Scars, and Belong comprise this collection. Getaway will make you think twice before taking up that cheap offer for an airbnb. Scars will immediately have you unfriending your favorite authors (Sorry Bridgett, it was fun while it lasted; really, it’s me, not you). Belong? Well, we all have that stalker we love to hate and hope they die in a grease-fire. And if you don\u2019t, well, you\u2019re probably that stalker!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So grab your copy<\/a> and dive in if you haven\u2019t already. Available in kindle or paperback. Or at least add it to your library. If you\u2019re like me, the next book I add to my library will be the 22nd<\/sup> book that\u2019s in the queue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
