The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady HendrixMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is a reading group you do not want to be a member of. While their true crime discussions are interesting (this is not the reason to avoid this group) the members face sexism at home, and do not think about their behaviour as potentially racist. A new man come to town and proves a disruptive force for families as the husbands befriend him. It is interesting seeing how the reading group changes over time - but keep in mind this is a tale of horror and is, at times, very disturbing reading. It is also a tale of readers bonding over books with implications for what is regarded as acceptable reading. I have also read Horrorstör which provides other interesting angles for horror.
