Graveyard Shift
Graveyard Shift: A Novella | M. L. Rio
7 posts | 3 read | 7 to read
The author of sales sensation If We Were Villains returns with a story about a ragtag group of night shift workers who meet in the local cemetery to unearth the secrets lurking in an open grave. Every night, in the colleges ancient cemetery, five people cross paths as they work the late shift: a bartender, a rideshare driver, a hotel receptionist, the steward of the derelict church that looms over them, and the editor-in-chief of the college paper, always in search of a story. One dark October evening in the defunct churchyard, they find a hole that wasnt there before. A fresh, open grave where no grave should be. But who dug it, and for whom? Before they go their separate ways, the gravedigger returns. As they trail him through the night, they realize he may be the key to a string of strange happenings around town that have made headlines for the last few weeksand that they may be closer to the mystery than they thought. Atmospheric and eerie, with the ensemble cast her fans love and a delightfully familiar academic backdrop, Graveyard Shift is a modern Gothic tale in If We Were Villains author M. L. Rios inimitable style.

I really enjoyed this short horror novel. It takes place in one evening and easily be read in the same amount of time. The novel focuses on the Anchorites, a rag-tag bunch of insomniacs, who smoke at night at the local graveyard. One night they found that someone is digging a hole and try to solve the mystery. 4.5 stars
This is my #BookScavengerHunt entry for #Dark.

I want to read the new ML Rio novella, but I absolutely HATE the cover.

Almost as much as I hate this edition of Monika Kim's "The Eyeballs are the Best Part":

Not as much as I hate the US cover of Brainwyrms ??

It's a GOOEY MELTING RAT with FUNGUS. I hate it so much that instead of posting it, I have substituted a pic of Alan Cumming in a ridiculous jewelled poncho.

willaful Much pleasanter! 3d

A strange premise, interesting characters, a slow reveal, and an unsatisfying ending make this a frustrating read. Thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for a review copy.

Another preorder showed go up today! This will be a quick read since it‘s a little over 134 pages. The cover is giving me T.Kingfisher vibes!

AmandaBlaze I just got a skip-the-line loan on this. I think I\'ll save it for #HauntedShelf. 2w
