The BOO*-k Club
Bailey and Mariah invite you to join them for BOO*-k Club (*Bloodcurdling, Ominous, and Otherworldly) each month. As avid horror readers, they cannot wait to explore some of the genreās most interesting offerings by focusing on short story collections and novellas. Come get creeped out with us!
This month’s book is Taaqtumi ed. by Aviaq Johnston, Richard Van Camp, Rachel Qitsualik-Tinsley
āTaaqtumiā is an Inuktitut word that means āin the darkāāand these spine-tingling horror stories by Northern writers show just how dangerous darkness can be.Ā A family clinging to survival out on the tundra after a vicious zombie virus. A door that beckons, waiting to unleash the terror behind it. A post-apocalyptic community in the far North where things arenāt quite what they seem. With chilling tales from award-winning authors Richard Van Camp, Rachel and Sean Qitsualik-Tinsley, Aviaq Johnston, and others, this collection will thrill and entertain even the most seasoned horror fan.
Purchase a copy to read, or grab it from the library, and join us Friday, January 24th for a thoughtful and entertaining discussion about Taaqtumi. This book club is free to anyone who wishes to participate. No registration necessary.
