Today I have two hardcover, finished copies, for 2 winners, of a new book by an author whose debut I really enjoyed. More details below, but first here are the rules for the giveaway:
- You need to be affiliated with an American public library. My rationale behind that is that I will be encouraging you to read these books and share them with patrons. While many of them are advanced reader copies that you cannot add to your collections, if you get the chance to read them, my hope is that you will consider ordering a copy for your library and give away the ARC away as a prize or pass it on to a fellow staff member.
- If you are interested in being included in any giveaway at any time, you must email me at zombiegrl75 [at] gmail [dot] com with the subject line "#HorrorForLibraries." In the body of the email all you have to say is that you want to be entered and the name of your library.
- Each entry will be considered for EVERY giveaway. Meaning you enter once, and you are entered until you win. I will randomly draw a winner on Fridays sometime after 5pm central. But only entries received by 5pm each week will be considered for that week. I use Random.org and have a member of my family witness the "draw"based off your number in the Google Sheet.
- If you win, you are ineligible to win again for 4 weeks; you will have to re-enter after that time to be considered [I have a list of who has won, when, and what title]. However, if you do not win, you carry over into the next week. There is NO NEED to reenter.

Back in 2020 I reviewed The Bright Lands a debut Horror novel by author John Fram. It was a very strong debut and I book I still suggest to readers. Now he is back with his second novel and his publisher, Atria Books, has sent me 2 hardcover, finished copies to give away to 2 of you. First details on that book, No Road Home:
A young father must clear his name and protect his queer son when his wealthy new wife’s televangelist grandfather is found murdered in this binge-worthy locked-room thriller from the acclaimed author of The Bright Lands—perfect for fans of Ruth Ware, Paul Tremblay, and Alex North.
For years, single father Toby Tucker has done his best to keep his sensitive young son, Luca, safe from the bigotry of the world. But when Toby marries Alyssa Wright—the granddaughter of a famed televangelist known for his grandiose, Old Testament preaching—he can’t imagine the world of religion, wealth, and hate that he and Luca are about to enter.
A trip to the Wright family’s compound in sun-scorched Texas soon turns hellish when Toby realizes that Alyssa and the rest of her brood might have some very strange plans for Toby and his son. The situation only grows worse when a freak storm cuts off the roads and the family patriarch is found murdered, stabbed through the heart on the roof of the family’s mansion.
Suspicion immediately turns to Toby, but when his son starts describing a spectral figure in a black suit lurking around the house with unfinished business in mind, Toby realizes this family has more than murder to be afraid of. And as the Wrights close in on Luca, no one is prepared for the lengths Toby will go in the fight to clear his name and protect his son.
This book is twisty, memorable, and gripping with authentic queer representation. I agree with the range of readalike suggestions in the book description: Ruth Ware, Paul Tremblay, and Alex North. It has a locked room mystery feel as well.
You should order this book for your library right now, if you already haven't. But also Don't forget about The Bright Lands as well.
Enter now to be entered for this book-- 2 winners this week-- and you can add these copies directly into your collection. Remember, enter once and you are entered until you win. If you have won previously, you can re-enter as soon as 4 weeks after winning.
Good luck and thanks to Atria Books for making this possible.
