Brimming with dark humor, violence, and mystery, The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre is a blood-soaked slasher sure to keep readers cringing, laughing, and guessing until the very last page.

Rose DuBois is not your average final girl.

Rose is in her late 70s, living out her golden years at the Autumn Springs Retirement Home.

When one of her friends dies alone in her apartment, Rose isn’t too concerned. Accidents happen, especially at this age!

Then another resident drops dead. And another. With bodies stacking up, Rose can’t help but wonder: are these accidents? Old age? Or something far more sinister?

Together with her best friend Miller, Rose begins to investigate. The further she digs, the more convinced she becomes: there’s a killer on the loose at Autumn Springs, and if she isn’t careful, Rose may be their next victim.

oooh we have a lying nurse - did she just forget she shut the window?

and now we have 2 murders!

I like how Rose is nosey but not all up in everyone's business. it really does seem it's being shoved in her face and less that she's looking for it

so it has to be someone who has access to the rooms and the meds, right? AND they seem able to roam freely at night. . .hmmmmm. but why would a nurse or someone else attack all of them at this place? (hide spoiler)]

ch 6 (I'm not sure which part I'm in! ) / 52%

holy moly (view spoiler)[ I've completely lost count of how many have died. I'm glad the detective is getting involved.

I'm so glad Rose and her friends are starting to try to piece together what is going on. so sad that they drugged the guy to see aliens! and gave that other guy a heart attack through with viagra or something like that

still think - it's someone who is gaining access but he's messing with meds. You don't think it's her daughter's boyfriend, right? I have no idea why he would do this. . . (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 10 (not sure which part again) / 81%

OOOH (view spoiler)[ omg I thought they'd actually caught them! I have no idea who it is! One of the doctors? Nurses?

and wow, to put her as bait! 😲😲😲😬😬 I was so worried until they started coming in! but they still didn't catch him!

these deaths are brutal
and I was so sad for all the people who tried to leave and their kids wouldn't help them or let them come stay with them. heartbreaking . . . (hide spoiler)]

and DONE! this one was SO good

(view spoiler)[ wow, mindy was scary at the end. and I was really was worried that the train would get Rose - I really felt like anyone could die. I was so sad that so many of her friends died

I love when she confessed to the boyfriend too. Just to let him know how dangerous she was. what a great moment! lol (hide spoiler)]

Wow, I suck. I am putting myself in a Buddy Blackhole through the end of the year. I am so sorry. I even have the audio for this one. I am still planning to get to all of ours, I swear!
