Instead of *just* posting this graphic over and over again, I'll try to convince you to buy this book by telling you the 10 things that THE SOUTHERN BOOK CLUB'S GUIDE TO SLAYING VAMPIRES by @grady_hendrix gets right.

1) VAMPIRES. Guys, vampires are not hot. They are toxic, alpha male predators who take what they want and leave you for dead. They're not Edward Cullens--they're Ted Bundys.

2) The titular book club pivots from classics to true crime, mysteries, and thrillers, which comes in handy when the titular vampire comes to town. Guys, this is the correct move. What has Dickens taught you? Nothing. Read Ann Rule's The Stranger Beside Me if you want to live.

3) This book recognizes that being the lynchpin of your family is the hardest job of all. When was the last time you cooked 3 meals for your ungrateful kids, did the laundry, polished the silver, planned a party, and didn't divorce your idiot husband in one day? Never.

4) There is always one person in a friend-group who will immediately believe you if you think someone is a vampire. If you don't know who that friend is, it's you.

5) It is extremely easy for a predator to manipulate husbands to gain more access to the wives and children if he, like, mentions a real estate scheme one time.

6) The best snack at a book club meeting is cheese straws. This is undeniable.

7) The news never covers crimes in marginalized communities the way they should. It's still your job to pay attention and seek information.

8) Large groups of rats are always the first sign that something is wrong. See: Bubonic Plague.

9) You can get blood out of anything if you try hard enough. Enzymatic cleaners! Learn about them.

10) Great friends are the best weapon against anything in life.
