#4 in the #MyDarkLibrary series/imprint of #books out from Cemetery Gates Media: TABOO IN FOUR COLORS by Tim McGregor.

A ghoulish, calamitous caper of doomed desire. The author masterfully takes the story from mundane to macabre with artful glee & efficiency. Affectionate nods to noir & the EC comics of old enhance this fun, creepy novella. An elegantly concise, riveting tale that chills & thrills.

#3 in the #MyDarkLibrary series/imprint of #books out from Cemetery Gates Media: BOUND FEET by Kelsea Yu.

A layered ghost story of generational & familial trauma with substantial emotion & depth. Tragedy, history, and eerie imagery combine into a satisfying & nuanced tale of two women of different times dealing with loss, & the lengths they will go to remedy the injustices wrought upon them.

#2 in the #MyDarkLibrary series/imprint of #books from Cemetery Gates Media: #THIGHGAP by Chandler Morrison.

An unnerving, unflinching, unremorseful tale of body dysmorphia. This story is filled w bleakness, tragic moments, twisted humor, & horror. Dark, cynical, but so well-written/sharply realized you're compelled to take the ride to the end. A biting diatribe against vanity & vacuousness.

#1 in the #MyDarkLibrary series/imprint of #books out from Cemetery Gates Media: STARGAZERS by LP Hernandez.

Gripping, exciting, & terrifying, w a strong protagonist & economy to the writing: no detail/plot point seems extraneous. It never succumbs to over-sentimentality & yet there are genuinely affecting scenes of tremendous heart, sincerity, hope. The journey's harrowing but you'll be glad you took it.
