June Book Club-Ghost Eaters by Clay McLeod Chapman
Details
Welcome to the inaugural meeting of the Puget Sound Horror Book Club! This is my first time hosting and choosing this location, so apologies in advanced if it's not the smoothest!
The general timeline will be:
12:30p-12:45p: Meet other members and socialize as people arrive
12:45p-1:45p: Book Discussion
1:45p-2p: Book voting and updates for next meeting
It is my hope that going forward the group can vote on books they want to read for the next meeting, but for the first book I decided on Ghost Eaters by Clay McLeod Chapman.
Here is a description:
“A Gothic-punk graveyard tale about what haunts history and what haunts the human soul. An addicting read that draws you into its descent from the first page.”—Chuck Wendig, New York Times best-selling author of The Book of Accidents
One of Vulture's Best Horror Novels of 2022, this terrifying supernatural page-turner will make you think twice about opening doors to the unknown.
Erin hasn’t been able to set a single boundary with her charismatic but reckless college ex-boyfriend, Silas. When he asks her to bail him out of rehab—again—she knows she needs to cut him off. But days after he gets out, Silas turns up dead of an overdose in their hometown of Richmond, Virginia, and Erin’s world falls apart.
Then a friend tells her about Ghost, a new drug that allows users to see the dead. Wanna get haunted? he asks. Grieving and desperate for closure with Silas, Erin agrees to a pill-popping “séance.” But the drug has unfathomable side effects—and once you take it, you can never go back.
