Get Fictional's FIRST book club is celebrating SUMMERWEEN! For the month of July (through August 8th), we will be reading Slasher Summer by E.L. Chen!! Campy, 80s slasher vibes are essential for any perfect Summerween. AND the author is gracing us with signed bookplates and stickers! {First come, first serve, while supplies last!}

You don't have to purchase the book from me, of course, but if you do, you will receive a custom 4oz candle to pair.

{If you'd like to order your own copy online, may I recommend bookshop.org? Order online here to support your indie bookstores! If you prefer audiobooks, take a look here!}

If you like, join the Facebook Group!! I had a lot of interest from folks who would like to participate virtually, and I believe this will be a great way to discuss the books! 

I will still have dates for meet-ups! Totally optional, but I think it would be so much fun to bring spooky bookish people together here in Conroe!! (I will be posting finalized plans for the meet up in our FB group.)

Thank you SO much for your interest! If I'm missing anything, or if you have any ideas, let me know!!! 

Slasher Summer: 

In this campy love letter to the slasher films of the 1980s, seven friends reunite for a weekend of fun—only to be hunted down by a cold-blooded killer. But the real horror is not being able to escape who you were in high school. . . .

The sleepy town of Cedar Lake is best known as the shooting location of the campy ’80s horror flick Slasher. In high school, preppy Patrick, jock Jason, cheerleader Tiffany, stoner Freddy, goth Jennifer, and nerdy Mikey had played the cast of Slasher during midnight showings, with virginal Carrie as the Final Girl, of course.

Years later, the friends reunite at the remote cabin where Slasher was filmed. They’ve changed since high school—Carrie found a boyfriend, Patrick came out, Mikey bulked up, and, well, Freddy’s still stoned—and they’re looking forward to a weekend to catch up. But when night falls, and the eponymous masked killer is spotted, the reunion takes a deadly turn. The friends discover their tires deflated and the phone line disconnected, and soon they’re being stalked by a mysterious assailant. Is someone trying to make their Slasherexperience as authentic as possible?

One thing is for sure. Before the night is over, they each will have to take on the role they thought they'd left behind.
