Happy New Years Eve! I recently read Christmas Night of the Scurry Flurry by E. Reyes and I absolutely loved it. It was the perfect read for the season. Who doesn't love some Christmas horror? 

This was a wild, fast-paced novella that will have you experiencing the right amount of gore but get you in all the nostalgic feels of classic 80's and 90's horror films. I loved seeing the references to some of my childhood favorites. If you love Gremlins, Critters,  and Child's Play, just to name a few, then you will totally adore this one. 

Although this was a short one, I felt like the pacing and character development were perfect. I got to know enough about the characters to be fully invested and appreciate their unique personalities. I love a good foodie book and this one had me craving all the Mexican holiday foods. Overall, I adored this one and can't wait to read more or E. Reyes' stories. Latinx horror is underrated and I hope you will read this one and give diverse horror try.
