I'm just imagining a flowchart. Did you love the friendship in 'Exorcism'? -> Go to 'Southern Book Club' (different kind of female bond). Did you love the '80s setting? -> Go to 'Paperbacks from Hell' (non-fiction deep dive into the era's horror). Did you love the demonic possession? -> That's trickier, maybe 'We Sold Our Souls' has a similar 'deal-with-the-devil' vibe. Did you love the pacing and scares? -> Go to 'The Final Girl Support Group' (a thriller). Did you love the humor? -> Go to 'Horrorstor'. Make your next choice based on which element of 'Exorcism' hooked you the most.

His books are so re-readable because you pick up on different details. I read 'Southern Book Club' first, then 'Exorcism', then 'Final Girl Support Group'. On a re-read of 'Southern Book Club', I caught so many subtle nods to the kind of '80s horror that 'Exorcism' outright embodies. There's no wrong door into his world. If I were to start again knowing what I know, I might go 'Horrorstor' (the fun, high-concept start), 'Exorcism' (the heart), 'We Sold Our Souls' (the gnarly side quest), 'Final Girl Support Group' (the meta thriller), 'Southern Book Club' (the deep, social horror masterpiece), and 'Haunted House' (the emotional coda). But that's just today's theory.

I treat his books like a mix-tape. After the upbeat, nostalgic track that is 'Exorcism', maybe you need a different genre. 'We Sold Our Souls' is the heavy metal track. 'Southern Book Club' is the soulful, intense blues track. 'Final Girl Support Group' is the fast-paced punk track. 'Horrorstor' is the novelty pop track with dark lyrics. 'How to Sell a Haunted House' is the haunting folk ballad. Don't listen to them in the order they were recorded; curate a playlist based on what you're in the mood for. What's your horror mood today?

The audiobook for 'My Best Friend's Exorcism' is narrated by Emily Woo Zeller and she absolutely nails the '80s teen drama vibe. It's like listening to a lost John Hughes horror film. If you read 'Exorcism' in print, maybe experience his next book in a different format. The 'Southern Book Club' audiobook, narrated by Bahni Turpin, is a masterclass in Southern accents and mounting tension. Switching up how you consume them can make each book feel like a totally new event. Just a suggestion for multimedia fans!
