Make Me a Monster

“But we already know our fates. Spoiler alert: Everybody dies.”   In this episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire talk about how surprise time travel is always a good addition to a book, being less prescriptive in your weird human sacrificial cult, tenaciously murdering, and a PSA: if you’re going to watch someone sleep creepily, do it from the corner not lying next to them in their discussion of Cry Out Loud by Tara O’Connor.

"…I'm more than just a piece in their Games." In this episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire talk about always ♩♫HOA HOA HOA♫♩ing, how Swamp Potato gives lead character energy, how abusing mahogany starts a rebellion, and being unintentionally nefarious in their discussion of The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.

“I don't know if it's healthy to think about death as much as I do.”   In this episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire talk about googling “what can dead bodies do” -AI, waking up and choosing violence, finding new cosplay supplies, discovering an altar meaning you need to GTFO, and watching Death Becomes Her because it is a perfect movie in their discussion of Make Me a Monster by Kalynn Bayron.

“Who would build a school on an island like this? It was just asking for a psychopath to kill everyone.”   In this episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire talk about having listeners as watchers, watchers as listeners, listeners as listeners, needing an emergency axe (for reasons), craving some movie snacks, seeing literal ghosts bonking around in the background and having so many questions about so many mannequins in their discussion of How to Survive a Horror Movie by Scarlett Dunmore.

“She’d not only survive, she’d fuck shit up.”   In this episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire talk about getting down to clown in clown town, ha-ha pranks not being funny ha-ha, death by too much popcorn, being an environmentally friendly killer clown, not being able to afford to be a killer clown in this economy!, and not running zig-zaggily but instead running Tom Cruisily in their discussion of  Clown In a Cornfield 4: Lights! Camera! Frendo! by Adam Cesare.

“No one wants to hear that their life's work is a sham.”   In this episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire talk about taking laundry analogies too far, getting TITSOAK tattoos because they're dauntless, and sacrificing themselves because of love in their discussion of Allegiant by Veronica Roth.

“Fuck it: save the day first, apologise later.”   In this episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire talk about having a tree dangle, learning how to say fuck that bitch in ASL, and two lessons they've learned: never be happy and name your giant fire breathing lizard in their discussion of Sisters of the Lizard by Jackson Ford, featuring the author for Would You Rather.

In this bonus episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda, Claire and author Jackson Ford play Would You Rather and talk about living in a pineapple in the tapestry, wearing jorts and assless chaps, keeping secrets about book three, how disappointment is the worst, and inflatable tube man dancing in their chat about Sisters of the Lizard.  

“I don’t care about being nice anymore. Nice girls die in situations like this.”   In this episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire talk about being pro-bread, how oatmeal is not sexy, reminiscing about Snake on our Nokias, bear-trapping your unlucky leg off, and an extra bonus murder in our discussion of Two Sides to Every Murder by Danielle Valentine.
