HIDE: Book Club Podcast on Dark Side of the Word

book cover of HIDE by kiersten white

Hello, Tartlets and Darksiders! A new book club podcast episode is up on Dark Side of the Word. Join me and Kait as we discuss the horror/thriller novel Hide by Kiersten White.

Fourteen people arrive at an abandoned amusement park for a life-changing opportunity. All they have to do is play an elaborate game of hide-and-seek, and the last person standing will win $50K. But, if they’re all hiding, who’s the seeker? Why is there blood on the carousel? And why is the fence around the amusement park electrified? As the game plays out, the contestants realize that winning isn’t the goal of this game — it’s surviving it. 

In this episode, Kait and I discuss the Greek mythology behind the story, White’s nod to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and if the beginning of Hide was more of a technical error than an artistic flair.
