i just finished #YouWerentMeantToBeHuman by @ajwhiteauthor.bsky.social and i have eight thousand emotions about it from start to finish. the entire read i was uncomfortable, distressed, angry, cathartic, and above all this book made me feel seen in a way i've only ever experienced with his books.

You Weren't Meant to Be Human, By Andrew Joseph White Open Discussion: I just finished this book today and desperately need someone who has also read this to talk about it with. I have so many thoughts and questions rolling around in my head.🪱🪰 #youwerentmeanttobehuman #booksky #horror #book

#youwerentmeanttobehuman by #andrewjosephwhite was my #halloween #horror read.

the #pregnancy storyline was really terrifying! the main character is trans & autistic. This added layers of complication & nuance to the storyline beyond gore.The ending was disturbing. #books #bookreview #booksky

just about halfway through YOU WEREN'T MEANT TO BE HUMAN by Andrew Joseph White, and it is very hard to put down. I have no idea what to expect happens next 👀 #YouWerentMeantToBeHuman @sagapressbooks.bsky.social

me: netgalley can i pretty please have #youwerentmeanttobehuman ?
netgalley (not two hours later): FUCK NO <3
me: netgalley its been a couple months can i pwease have #youdidnothingwrong ?
netgalley, the next morning: oh of course sweetie <3 have fun <3

I got an e-arc for #youwerentmeanttobehuman by AJW but it won't download? (Apparently the netgalley app just does this sometimes) so no bed time story for me tonight I guess :(

Proper fucked up over this one. Gonna feel it in my bones for the rest of my life...or at least a minimum of a dozen therapy sessions 😅 @ajwhiteauthor.bsky.social nailed it. TY for the ARC

Finished #youwerentmeanttobehuman , review is up on my Tiktok and my StoryGraph. I have the PERFECT meme to sum up the ending and I can't post it because it's rude as fuck to spoil a book that's straight up unpublished. HOWEVER. Know that I will be insane about this for 4 to 6 business months

Queer Horror Spooky Pride Reads is going great. Andrew Joseph White just made me grateful for my period for the first time ever. Fuck, dude, you’re right. At least it’s not a worm pregnancy #youwerentmeanttobehuman
