I blurbed this one! My blurb: “Delightfully devious and gleefully gory, Victorian Psycho is the perfect kind of unhinged. I gobbled it up in a single sitting and still crave more.”

Blood on Her Tongue by Johanna van Veen
"Talk about supporting women's rights, and more importantly, their wrongs! This novel was a delightfully creepy mixture of What Moves the Dead, Carmilla, and something very uniquely Johanna van Veen that I just can't seem to get enough of.

My Darling Dreadful Thing by Johanna van Veen
“It’s a dangerous thing, to try and give someone everything. One day, you might find you’ve given away things you should’ve kept. Some parts of us must remain inviolate if we are to survive as a person.”

My Darling Dreadful Thing by Johanna van Veen
“There’s a reason the word ‘haunting’ is rarely used in a positive way. To never be free of someone, well, that’s not always a comfort.”

“I was never a happy child. I think that, if I had been, things would have gone very differently with me. For one, I don’t think Ruth would have become my constant companion. Spirits like her are not drawn to the happy and carefree; they want salt, be it blood or be it tears.”
