The Little Fox Gothic Horror Book Club meets every third Thursday of the month and is led by our amazing employee Eva. All of our book clubs are very low key - with a goal of creating community and connecting with others that have a love of reading. You must RSVP to reserve your spot as space is limited to 12 people and spots fill up a few months in advanced. You can pick up a copy of this month's book at the bookshop, order it online for pick up, or order it from bookshop.org and have it shipped directly to your house - make sure you get a copy.Description:
Cora Zeng is a crime scene cleaner, washing away the remains of brutal murders and suicides in Chinatown. But none of that seems so terrible when she’s already witnessed the most horrific thing possible: her sister, Delilah, being pushed in front of a train.
Before fleeing the scene, the murderer shouted two words: bat eater.
So the bloody messes don’t really bother Cora—she’s more bothered by the germs on the subway railing, the bare hands of a stranger, the hidden viruses in every corner, and the bite marks on her coffee table. Of course, ever since Delilah was killed in front of her, Cora can’t be sure what's real and what’s in her head.
She pushes away all feelings and ignores the advice of her aunt to prepare for the Hungry Ghost Festival, when the gates of hell open. But she can't ignore the dread in her stomach as she keeps finding bat carcasses at crime scenes, or the scary fact that all her recent cleanups have been the bodies of East Asian women.
As Cora will soon learn, you can’t just ignore hungry ghosts.
