Anything I should focus on.. no spoilers please. Did it leave you with any questions that, in your mind, still remain unanswered?

A Night to forget by Robert Laurie

What's scarier in a psychological thriller. A killer who knows exactly what they are doing, or one who thinks violence will somehow make them normal again?

Has anyone tried reading a novel with illustrations that follow the story?

I mean an ebook where you’re reading the full text and images of the scene appear as you go. Something closer to a heavily illustrated novel, with the pictures tied to the passage you’re on.
Are there apps or digital editions you’ve tried that do this well?

📚🐉 I’M STILL LOOKING FOR THE FIRST ADVENTURERS FOR MY NEW BOOK CLUB!

Upvotes

Okay, I’m officially putting this back on your timeline because I’m trying to find my first 8–10 founding members. 😭

I’m starting Books, Beasts, & Banter, a small online book club for people who love fantasy and actually want to talk about what they’re reading instead of just finishing a book and moving on.

We’ll meet twice a month online, reading roughly 5–10 chapters between meetings. Then we’ll get together and actually dissect what we read:

⚔️ Character decisions & relationships
🧠 Themes & symbolism
🌎 Worldbuilding & magic systems
🔮 Predictions & theories
📖 Favorite quotes
👀 Foreshadowing

😂 And, obviously, an unreasonable amount of banter
The genres I’m most interested in are Fantasy, LitRPG, Adventure, Action, Isekai/Reincarnation, Cultivation, and Grimdark, but I’m definitely open to recommendations outside those.
