Our May book of the month is NOS4R2. This book is terrifying. Don’t believe us. . . let Gillian Redfearn tell you a little more about it.
Some books are too scary to read even with the lights on. Some are too scary to read even when you’re surrounded by people in the middle of the day.

This book will under your skin, into your mind, and once it’s there it will never leave.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

See you then!
