Erin is a DND nerd who has finally learned to love themselves. Sarah finished the karaoke season in second place to The Olive Garden. Carrie and her partner won big at Drag Bingo. Carrie bought a new outfit in which to accept an award. Sarah recommends finding a dark corner in a seedy bar for making out. Carrie is loving a new book recommended by a student: The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires. Sarah is going to help make a short film in 48 hours and loves making new friends in professional spaces. Carrie is going to be a real audiobook narrator! Carrie loves that once she won Girl of the Year (Sarah's brother was Boy of the Year) and accepted the award braless, and maybe she's going to accept this new award with no underwear on. Carrie loves that her home is a welcome womb to the wide world where animals like to have their babies in the Spring. She is a little too high and starts talking in poems. Sarah reads a little erotic poetry to her business club. Sarah loves that she plans little mini-experiences for her friends. She treats people well and makes them feel good. Carrie can confirm that Sarah curates fantastic experiences, and when Sarah comes to town again, Carrie will return the favor. The girls make a plan for next week segments including “10 Things I Love About 10 Things I Hate About You” and “Pretty Women Love Pretty Woman.” Carrie loves that Sarah is a ray of sunshine who cares so much about her friends. Sarah loves Carrie's outfit plans and loves her attention to the flash over substance. Low stakes advice: Make a game out of watching TV with tarot. It works at the ballpark, too! Do whatever Sarah says.

The Writer Files: Writing, Productivity, Creativity, and Neuroscience
Award-winning, New York Times bestselling author and screenwriter, Grady Hendrix, spoke with me about getting serious about horror, turning genre tropes on their head, and his latest “How to Sell a Haunted House.” Grady Hendrix is an award-winning novelist, screenwriter, and journalist best known for My Best Friend's Exorcism (adapted into a feature film by Amazon Studios), and the New York Times bestsellers The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires, and The Final Girl Support Group. His latest is How to Sell a Haunted House, an #1 Indie Next List pick, described as a “...novel that explores the way your past—and your family—can haunt you like nothing else.” The New York Times called it a “…gripping, wildly entertaining exploration of childhood horrors,” and Esquire called it “... an authentically frightening, genuinely funny reconfiguration of what a haunted house can be.” New York Times bestselling author Chuck Wendig said of the book, “A spirited nightmare story about death, but also, what comes after: grief, guilt, family secrets, and estate administration. Oh, also, did I mention the evil puppets?” Grady Hendrix's work is currently in multiple phases of adaptation at HBO and others, for both feature film and streaming.

This episode I tell Robert all about The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix This book has a lot of triggers in it especially Rape, Gore, Racism & Misogyny. These topics may be upsetting to some, but we only talk about them briefly. I wanted to read a vampire book for Halloween & you guys picked a great read, though it was very graphic. I got the spooky Halloween chills I wanted. 4/5 Stars for me, I would recommend this book to those with strong stomachs & the will to read through tough tragedy. This was a fun book & I enjoyed following patty and her book club through this adventure in their neighborhood. I really could've gone without the sexualization of the Vampire feeding. I want an explanation Grady. Recommend a book, ask me questions, or apply to be on the next episode by emailing me at Maevynpaige@gmail.com.

For today's episode I got to sit down with Chelsea Hoffman and Yolanda Skeete, founders of Thrillers by the Book Club. I can tell you from personal experience that both of these women are sweet and kind in real life, but they have an affinity for, as Chelsea calls it, murder-y books. They found each other online and formed a book club, which has morphed into a real-life book group with 27 chapters around the world. I asked them to join me for a Thriller-Palooza, because I wanted the lowdown on the best of the best in the world of thrillers, and holy moly, did these ladies ever deliver.

We're back with a book about a book club! The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix is a horror/thriller book about a group of suburban moms bonded by their love of mysteries and true crime dealing with some disturbing events and a suspicious newcomer in their community. We talk through our realization that the book was different than we expected, laugh at Sarah getting scared, and try to guess what grossed Pooja out the most. Harshini picked a horror book about vampires knowing Sarah hates horror and Pooja hates supernatural things, but did she actually succeed in finding a book of the genre we all liked? Only one way to find out!

His new book The Final Girl Support Group” is being adapted as a forthcoming series, his previous, the New York Times Best Selling novel The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires, was optioned for series adaptation by Amazon Studios following a ten buyer bidding war. There's a lot more, he's the author of the Bram Stoker Award-winning nonfiction book, Paperbacks from Hell, a history of the horror paperback boom of the '70s and '80s. I know few authors who are as literate on their own genre, it's truly humbling.

The Pat Conroy Literary Center and the Authors on the Air Global Radio Network proudly present executive director Jonathan Haupt in conversation with novelist Grady Hendrix, author of The Final Girl Support Group. "Take slasher movie adoration, critique, and satire, mix with compelling, flawed characters and neck-breaking plot twists, and drop it all into an industrial blender with large blades. Voilà, you now have Grady's maniacally clever and compulsively readable The Final Girl Support Group."—Paul Tremblay, author of Survivor Song "The Final Girl Support Group is a deft examination of how our culture's obsession with misogynistic violence destroys the lives of women and how those women are able to keep fighting and living after unthinkable trauma. The beating heart of this book is empathy and it's set into a lightning-paced, vicious thriller. Reading it was a catharsis. Absolutely unmissable."—Mallory O'Meara, author of The Lady from the Black Lagoon GUEST: Grady Hendrix is an award-winning novelist and screenwriter living in New York City. He is the author of Horrorstör, My Best Friend's Exorcism, We Sold Our Souls, and the New York Times bestselling The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires, which is being adapted into a series by Amazon Studios.

Lynnette Tarkington is a real-life final girl who survived a massacre twenty-two years ago, and it has defined every day of her life since. And she's not alone. For more than a decade she's been meeting with five other actual final girls and their therapist in a support group for those who survived the unthinkable, putting their lives back together, piece by piece. That is until one of the women misses a meeting and Lynnette's worst fears are realized—someone knows about the group and is determined to take their lives apart again, piece by piece. But the thing about these final girls is that they have each other now, and no matter how bad the odds, how dark the night, how sharp the knife, they will never, ever give up.
Grady Hendrix is a New York Times Best Selling author, and after reading this we understand why! Patricia Campbell lives in a safe town, but when kids start to go missing right when a mysterious stranger comes into town she cant help but feel that life in her small town isn't as safe as everyone makes it out to be. Is this new man in town really dangerous? Or is Patricia just bored and looking for excitement? Laugh and scream with us as we talk about these amazing ladies and how one book club saved the day. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/bookishlikethat/support

2 of us love heavy metal. When We Summon the Darkness, a heavy metal satanic panic movie hit Netflix we knew we had to see it.

We also chat about The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix. A fantastic new take on the vampire genre set in the 90's. It is a fun read with a pretty unique story.

You're probably tired of us by now. We just can't help ourselves. This time, we grabbed some time with Grady Hendrix to talk about his book that just dropped, The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires. It was an excellent conversation that we hope you enjoy as much as we did! Coming soon: a review of The Ancestor by Danielle Trussoni!
We're back again. Already. With another book review! This time, it's all about the neighborhood moms taking on vampires. And don't worry, we're continuing our break-neck pace of episode posting, because we'll be posting an interview with Grady Hendrix before the week is out! Then, the following week we'll be talking about The Ancestor by Danielle Trussoni. Then maybe an interview with her. And somewhere in all of that, maybe we'll get some sleep.
