It's always a good day for a @badhandbooks.bsky.social book delivery. The latest from @annieneugebauer.bsky.social 'You Have to Let Them Bleed.' LOVED her novella 'The Extra' last year, and can't wait to read this one!✌️🖤👹📚

Book 72: The Extra - Annie Neugebauer 🎧🥾💙📚🩸 Brief but deeply unsettling, “The Extra” slithers under your skin and lays its eggs of doubt there to grow and fester into a tightening noose of dread that ticks like a clock. A near perfect horror novella. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #TheExtra @annieneugebauer.bsky.social
