Clay and 1 other person liked Michelle's review of Mr. Lonelyhearts: "Mr. Lonelyhearts is weird, unhinged, and gloriously messed up in all the ways I want my horror to be. A glittery little fever dream of a book that had me wondering what the hell I was reading, while simultaneously being unable to look away. It’s campy" Read more of this review »

Quotes by Clay McLeod Chapman (?)

“I am the house. Every room is a chamber of my heart, every hallway an artery, every beam a bone.”
― Clay McLeod Chapman, Ghost Eaters

“Other animals sense danger and the need for self-preservation, but we’re the only ones who know death is coming. We know it’s there, always there, just waiting for us.”
― Clay McLeod Chapman, Ghost Eaters

“Your body is a temple. A ripe vessel. We want to make sure that it’s ready for receiving. “Receiving…what?” A gift, gurl. The juice cleanse was step one in Devon’s spiritual awakening. YOGAMAMA insisted she scrub the plumbing. You gotta purge yourself of any toxins polluting your body, hon. Flush—it—all—out! Make your vessel pure again. Then—and only then—can we welcome in the Wellness.”
― Clay McLeod Chapman, Wake Up and Open Your Eyes
