MY HEART IS A CHAINSAW: Stephen Graham Jones

MY HEART IS A CHAINSAW

by Stephen Graham Jones

Even if you don’t love the horror genre, you will still love the mythology building, coming of age, and mystery of this book. As a series of murders begins in Jade’s small town, she tries to make sense of the world around her through the tropes of the slasher movies she loves. Fiction has patterns and cycles, real life does not; it’s messy ​and unpredictable. My Heart is a Chainsaw is a beautifully sad novel about dealing with nightmare and trauma. ​
