While I was reading this I was totally in it. Because it involved time travel and enough clues I could kind of tell that things would be resolved the way I wanted, but that didn't lessen the tension. And I kept seeing Kirby as the actor who played Alice in the 3rd season of Channel Zero (Olivia Lucc...
While reading this book, I began to imagine a conversation that goes something like this: A whole bunch of authors: “We like to try to confuse readers by making our stories bounce back and forth between three or four different time periods.” Lauren Beukes: *indelicate snort* “Bitches, that’s not...
Could zombies be a viable replacement for slave labour? Asking for a certain electronics company. And most clothing manufacturers.Slipping is an interesting collection of writing from the brain of Lauren Beukes. From enhanced athletes to bored ghosts, these stories display Lauren's spec-fic interest...
A prime example how a otherwise decent three star book gets ruined by a ridiculous ending. I was intrigued by the twisted murder mystery. A body, half boy, half deer, is found and I expected a compelling thriller. But the story turns into a weird horror-mystery-thriller-mix with a central message ...

You know how dudes are.""I do, I do. So what is it that I can help you with, E.?""Oh, nothing. Just w...
Whoever wrote the jacket cover blurb for this book sure knew how to attract readers to it. A gruesome murder of a boy that is found with the upper body sewn onto a deer in a “genre-bending novel of suspense” gave me high hopes, especially factoring in aspects like the exploration of the human condit...
There are some things I really like about Lauren Beukes's writing. Present tense that doesn't drive me up the wall. Characters who are vivid and fatally flawed. Grungy, gritty realness that makes me slightly uncomfortable at times. Where it falls apart for me is the world building. I have no idea wh...
