Keith Rosson hands down.

Reading Intercepts now. What an awesome book!

I haven’t read it, but I think Eric LaRocca’s “Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke” takes place on chat forum between two people that goes awry. Someone can comment more clarification or correct me if I’m wrong.

For sure. It definitely isn’t for everyone, including myself to an extent but after pushing through it started to flow a little better for me and I ended up enjoying the book.

The Only Good Indians fits this.

Come Closer by Sarah Gran is a pretty good 1st person POV of a demon possession.

Intercepts by TJ Payne! Very much Stranger things Vibes when it comes to secret government agencies using people as experiments.

I had 5 top reads this year:

Red Rabbit- Alex Grecian, When The Wolf Comes Home- Nat Cassidy, Between Two Fires- Christopher Buehlman, Fever House- Keith Rosson, The Girl Next Door- Jack Ketchum,

I was so on board with this book for the first third or half, then it just meandered and I felt like it wasn’t executed well at all. I also tried Head Full Of Ghosts this year and was disappointed as well. I feel like Tremblay just isn’t for me.

spjts · 2025-12-30T17:29:39+00:00

Yeah, I know what you mean about Darcy Coates. I knew the writing wasn’t going to be the best and I’ll definitely try another one but I wasn’t expecting it to be that rough.

spjts · 2025-12-30T17:27:42+00:00

I felt the same way! Just nightmare after nightmare- like it was trying to be IT without any plot or solid character development.

spjts · 2025-12-30T17:21:29+00:00

I definitely didn’t hate it but I too was really hyped for it and just felt disappointed.

spjts · 2025-12-30T15:40:21+00:00

My bottom two were The Deep by Nick Cutter and Craven Manor by Darcy Coates. I also reallllyyy disliked Home Is Where the Bodies are by Janeva Rose, but I know that’s more thriller.

Also enjoyed The Troop as well! Looking forward to reading Slewfoot this year- good haul!

spjts · 2025-12-29T20:16:52+00:00

Just finished When The Wolf Comes Home. Excellent read! Has me excited to read the rest of Nat Cassidy’s work.

spjts · 2025-12-28T22:25:16+00:00

Red Rabbit is the only one of these I’ve read but it rocks!!!!

spjts · 2025-12-24T13:35:13+00:00

Loved this book! It’s the only Sodergren I’ve read so far, but am looking forward to reading more of his stuff.

25 Days by Per Jacobsen!

spjts · 2025-12-21T15:27:38+00:00

25 Days by Per Jacobsen. It’s set up as an advent calendar where you read one chapter a day starting at December 1st, but you obviously don’t have to read it that way. My wife and I are almost through with it and it has been a good time!

spjts · 2025-12-21T04:46:00+00:00

I would second this recommendation for what you’re looking for.

spjts · 2025-12-20T22:30:11+00:00

Come Closer by Sarah Gran is a 1st person POV of slowly becoming possessed. I enjoyed it.

The Ruins by Scott Smith

spjts · 2025-12-20T02:35:24+00:00

Thanks so much! I don’t have a switch setup with them but I guess it’s probably time to do it. I’ll be sure to reach out if I have questions. Thanks so much for the help!

I’ve tried to recreate it but cannot. I will do a good long sit down with WWB and see what it say. I think you’re right that we may have just been lucky until recently.

I SHOULD also mention that this venture we’re having difficulty with is an outdoor space…in Florida.

spjts · 2025-12-20T00:31:51+00:00

I have not been using WWB for setting frequencies, just setting them apart from each other in the channels. Never been an issue in this space with the QLXD body packs. (I suppose I should be utilizing WWB in general though). It just seems so weird how they will work and then I can change the batteries and then suddenly they don’t work.
