The Greatest Slasher Trilogy Ever? THE ANGEL OF INDIAN LAKE by Stephen Graham Jones -- Review 

I haven't had the pleasure of the reading Angel yet, but definitely thing SGJ is the best horror writer around right now. There are a lot of really fun horror books out right now (including yours), but the way the language in his books can sound conversational and literary at the same time is mind-blowing. He'll write something, and it just sounds like the character talking, but then you look at it, and you're like "how did he put those sentences together!"

I love rereading books. They’re different experiences every time. By the way, I saw you at Monster Mania and had a bigger reaction noticing you than the guests there. I’m from Philly and after discovering your channel lived in FL for a few years/I’m back. Seeing you was like ‘oh, he is real’

just finished angel and i'm with you on needing a re-read of this trilogy. at least until SJG comes out with his next book. going to miss jade terribly, but i'm happy to see her walk off into the sunset.

I love My Heart is a Chainsaw. I am so excited to read the next two books. It's such intelligent and emotionally intelligent horror.

I had the same reaction upon first reading HEART that changed with my second reading. After DON'T FEAR, I immediately closed the book and contacted Stephen. I can't remember what I said exactly, it wasn't long, but it was along the lines of, "Jesus CHRIST, Stephen!" I cannot *wait* for the third book.

Haven’t read any SGJ yet but I got a copy of Mongrels sitting on my TBR pile. My favorite of the current breed is probably Nick Cutter, The Troop is one of the best I’ve ever read.

Really excited to read the third book next week 👍 I’m definitely a re-reader 😊 I can understand why other people don’t but for me it’s about already knowing that my favourite books are going to make me happy. Been going through a tough time recently and re-reading a bunch of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld books has definitely given me a mental lift and lots of joy to boot.

I don't get it. I could barely finish the first book. It's yet another "hey guys, can you tell I'm knowledgeable about horror movies?" book with little else to grab onto. The prose is unengaging, the pacing is terribly slow, and the protagonist is obnoxious. There are only so many meta-textual novels of a writer flexing their horror geek cred I can stomach before it really becomes obnoxious. I feel so out of step with the current crop of horror writers- none of the big names have done a thing for me. Hendrix, Graham Jones, Tremblay etc...all leave me cold.

i started reading My heart is a chainsaw because of the title alone. not gonna lie, the pacing and writing turned me off and i stopped reading but then i found myself in a similar spot as Jade in falling into horror when my mental health wasn't at its best. now i need three more chapters to finish the first book and i absolutely love it so far. i love Jade so much and i cant wait to see her grow into who she is

I got to pick up the last two of the series. I own Chainsaw but haven't read it yet. I was a fan of Mongrels, so I have no excuse.

I have to know, where did you get that great Slumber Party Massacre shirt?

People just love or hate this trilogy. I dig em tho.

I never re read books either. Glad you liked the trilogy Adam- it wasnt for me.

i just finished your clown in a cornfield novels and i…. was….. amazed
