Let's Go Play at the Adams'/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Complete Monster - Dianne, John, and Paul
  • Crowning Moment of Funny - Cindy trying to impersonate Barbara when an unexpected visitor shows up. Trust us, that's about as light-hearted as things get.
  • High Octane Nightmare Fuel - This book will get to you. Don't think so? Read the reviews and see just how disturbed everyone else who read it was. It got to a lot of people.
  • Moral Event Horizon - Every time it's crossed, you think they can't cross it again. Then they do.
  • Needs More Love - Or maybe it needs to be purged from humanity's collective memory forever. Take your pick.
  • Paranoia Fuel - It might be a while before you feel safe going to sleep or letting your guard down in any other conceivable way.
  • Squick - Lots of it. LOTS of it. The reason so many reviews are split on whether this book is a masterpiece of disturbing horror, or just disturbing. The one thing every single review of this book seems to agree on, is that it is disturbing.
  • Tear Jerker
    • Barbara's parents in the epilogue.
    • In Game's End, pretty much any scene with Bobby, especially the epilogue.
  • True Art Is Angsty
  • The Woobie - Barabara and The Picker
