You’ll want to devour this #BookFaceFriday!

I ate this #BookFace with some fava beans and a nice Chianti! Spooky season is upon us and nothing sets the vibe like a scary story. This week’s #BookFaceFriday is the perfect way to get your adrenaline flowing; check out “Tender is the Flesh” by Agustina Bazterrica (‎Scribner, 2020.) This title is available as an eBook in Nebraska OverDrive Libraries and is a part of the curated collection, “Scare Up a Good Book: Horror and dark reads.” Find your perfect horror read in this collection of over 250 titles, available all October.

“From the first words of the Argentine novelist Agustina Bazterrica’s second novel, Tender Is the Flesh, the reader is already the livestock in the line, reeling, primordially aware that this book is a butcher’s block, and nothing that happens next is going to be pretty.”

—New York Times Book Review
