I have so many heart eyes for this book, it’s not even funny. I absolutely, absolutely adore this. I mean, so much love. For realsies. It’s the cute, geeky cousin to the actual Cinderella, and I love it. Geekerella follows the story of Danielle “Elle” Whittimer and how she falls for Darien Freeman, the hot …
People often repeat the truncated quote “blood is thicker than water,” forgetting that the full quote is “the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb.” Impressively, both of these mutually contradictory statements are true of The Price Guide to the Occult by Leslye Walton. Family, its pull, and its limits …

Hey remember that guy Henderson…?! This week we present Old Man Henderson Director’s Cut Part 1, from 1d4Chan! Old Man Henderson was written as a forum post, and so isn’t the traditional type of reading we’ve done. It’s a story of insanity, awesomeness, and revenge. It was written by Waffle House Millionaire, and later by A …
