Hampton Heights | Was That Extra Money Really Worth It?

You're listening to Read No Evil, your monthly horror book club that peels back the layers of all things horror literature.

And if it's not obvious by now, spoilers and graphic content lie ahead.

And I listened to a lot of true crime.

I was like, is his grandfather a pedophile? This was before all the wolf stuff.

This is when they were like, he's in hiding.

I was like gearing up to be like, oh, that's where I thought we were going.

No, I took it as like gang related stuff that he got caught in the middle of something.

And then they think that ended up being the thing.

That's literally what happened.

Right on the

back.

I'm Shayla Payne, creator and host of Read No Evil.

And on the first day of every month, I'm joined by my partner and co-host, Ian Franco, just to see if our relationship can handle another horrific read.

If you read the book or not, follow along as we analyze, mostly argue, and try to figure out what the hell is going on.

From the original horror classics to the fresh meat on the market, we leave nothing off the table.

And just to make sure that we're doing the spooky season right, this month we get into Hampton Heights by Dan Coys.

It's a coming-of-age story that follows a group of middle school, Midwestern paperboys that just try and survive a monstrous night.

Was that extra cash really worth it? Listen if you dare.
