Okay, so, um, this novel is the sequel to John Dies at the End, a book of comic horror that Don Coscarelli turned into a movie that my brother gets to see this month at a film festival. Yes, I'm jealous.
JDATE is a hell of a good book, but you can read Spiders even if you didn't read that one.
It is hard for me to write about books I like (you may have noticed), so I don't know how good this review will be--I ADORE THIS BOOK.
Okay, so.. the story is about Dave, who wakes up one night to a pain in his leg and finds some sort of spider-like critter gnawing on him. Except it's much bigger and worse than a spider. And it turns out the spiders crawl into you and take you over and make you their murder robots. And also that they've set up a nest like bedbugs or something right in Dave's fucking bed. So Dave's friend John sets the bed on fire.
This was not a good move.
Anyway, stop reading this and go get your hands on this book.
Just don't read it before bed.
