When I first saw the gorgeous cover of When the Sky Fell on Splendor by Emily Henry, I fell in love. In love with the swirling blue hues, gorgeous green font, in love with friends banding together, and in love with the sparkling spaceship in the center, ready to haul people up into it's beam. I love mysteries, cryptzoology, and aliens so this book was a perfect read. Huge thank you to t[...]
0 The Davis Girl (TDG): Everyone, I am overjoyed to welcome illustrator and author Eric Orchard. Hello, and good day sir. Eric Orchard (EO): Good morning! TDG: Yes. Good morning. Are you ready for this, Eric Orchard? EO: Yep! TDG: First, who is the awesome cat in your profile picture? It has a pipe and there's a moon and it's awesome. EO: Ohhhh! That’s a bat often mistaken for[...]
Author Monica Kuebler started her Blood Magic series in 2012 with an online serial called Bleeder posted to Wattpad. The book ended up expanding into 4, and now has over 628K Reads on Wattpad. It’s obvious the horror/romance/paranormal/vampire YA series has touched a nerve with readers looking for a modern blood-soaked saga. Haven’t read any of the books in the series? You can start[...]
I came across Paul Tremblay's The Cabin at the End of the World during a recent search for Lovecraftian horror that introduced me to The Fisherman from John Langan (which I loved). And while I would not personally categorize The Cabin at the End of the World as overly Lovecraftian, it definitely is an apocalyptic tale that provides constant tension punctuated by some truly horrific moments[...]
It is time, once again, for Midnight Society Movie Night announcement. Horror movie friends, let's watch The Nun. Let's watch together huddled in the dark, tucked cozy under blankets. Who's bringing the cookies? Popcorn? I posted my thoughts on the 2018 film by James Wan and Gary Dauberman in my previous post. You can read it here! About how I ran to see this movie a[...]

First Impressions I have always judged books by their covers so it was no surprise to me that Stephanie Perkins's There's Someone Inside Your House was an instant YES. There's a lot I love about this cover, but my hearteyes were first sewn to three things: That hint-of-late-eighties neon pink projection lettering. How some of the words are broken across the stairs and railing (wh[...]
Am I a little late to talk about The Nun, movie-lovers? Maybe. Or maybe not. Because sometimes movies need a second chance. Sometimes parts of the story we think are missing... aren't. Story by James Wan and Gary Dauberman, The Nun hit theaters September of 2018, AND I RAN TO SEE IT. Could not run fast enough. Seriously. The Conjuring universe is one of my very favorites, and a film de[...]

TOM TORRE (TT): Pleasure to be chatting with ya! TDG: Fun fact, I might have screamed when I saw your tweet about "Dungeons And Drafting" but what in the world *is* it and why does it sound so amazing? TT: Dungeons and D[...]
