You can follow her everywhere @kurryreads, and check out her website www.kurryreads.com If you like my content or any of my recs, you’ll def love her stuff. We talk all things horror+thriller, how’s she able to read a book a day, what some of our fav tropes are, and of course, some of the books that freak us out! The audio is a bit jumpier this time- there was a weird ticking feedback I was getting on my end that was like ear piercing 😂 I’m assuming my mic wasn’t plugged in all the way or something?? But anyways, I edited them out, but again yeah it’s a bit jumpy. Can you tell I’m still new to this?? 😅 But yeah, love you all and I’ll follow up with a list of books mentioned below!
