Overview

This quarter we’re continuing our reimagination of the ITV Bingo Challenge as an exploratory themed experience. We are reading within the theme of: Destruction.

For Q3, ITV challenges you to read 6 books (and I'd be curious to see if our book pick fits the challenge...) that explore the interpretations of DESTRUCTION: books that contain themes of self-destruction, disasters, apocalyptic horror, irreparable damages or annihilation, etc. 

In The Void is quarterly, virtual horror bookclub, allowing members the opportunity to enjoy our selections without the pressure of a monthly meeting! @inthevoidbookclub
