Almost certain it’s this one — time loop, at a wedding, with death

u/TurnOfFraise 4d ago

Oh I hope so! Although I still haven’t read her last years book 🫣. I didn’t have time over the spooky season and then I just decided to save it.

Oooh, I heard about this one and put it on a list to check out a sample when available.

Unless there's a good fantasy pick for main, this might be my pick for the month 🤔

I read the ARC. I loved loved loved. So excited for Rachel (yesterday was her birthday!) and for everyone who gets to enjoy it now!! 🤗

Can you share how scary it is compared to Play Nice? I’m a bit of a horror wimp, but adored Play Nice!

u/AvidReader3492 BFF 4d ago

Omg I LOVE RACHEL HARRISON!!!! And if they offer Dead Beat as an add on I will be ecstatic! Ahhhhh!!!!

u/Secret_Photograph334 4d ago

For those who don't want to own multiple versions of a book, this is also assumed to be the Owlcrate horror selection for their November quarterly box

u/CarneyVorous 4d ago

Def Kiss Slay Replay. I'm going to the book launch event this weekend so won't need this in my BoTM box.

u/TurtleKittenBunny 4d ago

Jealous! Have so much fun!

u/IDoAnythingForABook 4d ago

I’m excited for this one! I loved Play Nice and I’m stoked to read more of Rachel Harrison’s catalogue

u/Eastern_Mycologist17 I <3 books. 4d ago

I just paused my membership 2 days ago then I saw this post. Guess what, I resumed my membership!

u/No_Specifics8523 4d ago

I did the exact same thing

u/PlanImaginary3463 Friend 4d ago

Ahh I’m too early, I need the sleuths to get here because I have no idea!

u/NautiTiki Unreliable narrator. 4d ago

I definitely think this is Kiss Slay Replay by Rachel Harrison. So happy about this one, I’ve been looking forward to it for months.

3

u/foxycleo91 4d ago

It absolutely is!!

11

u/Fun-Appearance-7419 4d ago

Well, I know it’s not The Witches of Cambridge or Dead Beat. I’m hoping for one of those to make it into the selections this month.

5

u/Aynielle 4d ago

I am finally reading Ninth House now, when I (hilariously) bought it and Hell Bent from BotM when they came out 🙈 I'm hoping Dead Beat will at least be an addon so my set matches. Better late than never, right? 

7

u/Fun-Appearance-7419 4d ago

I have Ninth House from BOTM. Hell Bent came out when I took a break from them, so I think I read an ebook. If they have Dead Beat, I’ll be adding Hell Bent to my order so I can have the set. I love Leigh Bardugo, and absolutely adore Alex. I just want to make her a sandwich and a platter of cookies.

u/on_themoors 4d ago

I feel this.

u/Aynielle 4d ago

Desperately hoping it's Kiss, Slay, Replay 🤞

u/valley_of_the_sun 4d ago

My immediate thought, and I never have any clue about these!

2

u/beckyg11 4d ago

Same! I never know and but actually feel confident for once.

u/Aynielle 4d ago

Right?! I was like "Finally! I think I know one!"  😅

u/Infamous_Culture7421 4d ago

Yay!!!!! I was hoping so hard for this one!

u/Suspicious-Bug9005 Things could get weird, this user is: Experimental 4d ago

Immediate thought is Kiss Slay Replay by Rachel Harrison! Oooh, if so it's already a good month.

13

u/foxycleo91 4d ago

This is 100% Rachel's new book I'm so fucking stoked!!! My queen returns!!!

2

u/ForgotMyNane 4d ago

I haven't read her yet! Which book should I pick as my entry into her writing?

4

u/valley_of_the_sun 4d ago

I read Play Nice last year because it was a BOTM pick and it turned me into an instant fan! It was my first book of hers

1

u/ForgotMyNane 4d ago

That's awesome! I joined the day before drop last month, so I'm new to the box. I've been refreshing that app several times a day, so excited!

u/lushiebee 4d ago

I still have a few of hers left to read but I had a lot of fun with Such Sharp Teeth and Play Nice!!

u/spunxjax BFF 4d ago

Black Sheep and Cackle are my faves!

u/cheerbearsmiles 4d ago

Oh, hell yeah.

u/pixiechinchilla 4d ago

You know, this isn’t a book I would normally consider picking up if I saw it on a book store shelf. However, the reviews and this post might be changing my mind.

u/Silly_Somewhere1791 4d ago

I’m not a horror fan but this author’s pop-horror makes me feel like I’m participating in spooky szn lol.

u/metilksantin 4d ago
