The Curse of the Wendigo | 
pickAccording to GR, it‘s been 5 years since I read The Monstrumologist, the first book in this series and I regret that. I listened to most of this on audio and highly recommend it. In book 2, Pellinor Warthorpe and his assistant, Will Henry, are after the Outiko or Wendigo. This is a YA series, but it is dark and gory and this one had some heartbreak. Warthorpe and Will both get quite a bit of character development in this one. 💗 #Screamathon
Bookzombie These books are set in the late 1800s and Yancey makes you feel like you are there. For example, there is a section where he goes into detail about the filth in the streets of New York City. He talks about “the hour of filth” when chamber pots across the city are emptied directly onto the streets and the amount of waste the horses produced every day. It makes you wonder how humans actually survived. It‘s disgusting, but also fascinating. (edited) 3y

Reggie Ok so I thought of you and this post today because they were talking about the origin of the word shitfaced which came from if you stayed out too late drinking when people threw their chamber pots out the window sometimes it landed on your drunk face. Grossssss!!!! Lol 🤢 (edited) 3y
