From New York Times bestselling author Carmen Maria Machado (Her Body And Other Parties, In The Dream House) comes a story so horrifying you won't dare to forget!

When your memories are stolen, what would you give to remember? Follow El and Vee as they search for answers to the questions everyone else forgot.

Shudder-to-Think, Pennsylvania, is plagued by a mysterious illness that eats away at the memories of those affected by it. El and Octavia are two best friends who find themselves the newest victims of this disease after waking up in a movie theater with no memory of the past few hours.

As El and Vee dive deeper into the mystery behind their lost memories, they realize the stories of their town hold more dark truth than they could've imagined. It's up to El and Vee to keep their town from falling apart...to keep the world safe from Shudder-to-Think's monsters.

Industry Reviews

"...a thought provoking, eerie, and well-timed look at how misogyny and the desire to hide it can be damaging to everyone. Readers who enjoy the more psychological aspects of horror will want to read this over and over again."-Booklist (Starred Review)

"...a gloriously unnerving tale of monsters, sinkholes, witches, and yearning teenage dreams. Within the horror plot lives a touching tale of friendship, choices, grief, and empowering rage, with a female-centered queer and diverse cast of characters." -Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
