if you like gothic botanical horror then you need my unhinged monstrous boys. Scorpion Deep is about falling in love with an eldritch sea god and Hazelthorn is about being buried alive in the garden by the boy you loved. they’re on sa|e at B&N right now!!!

maybe you were not made to labour but rather to obsess over haunted forests full of mossy eldritch trees and mushrooms and old books full of unhinged little fairy tales
