What the Hell Did I Just Read

by David Wong / Jason Pargin · John Dies at the End series

The story "They" don't want you to read—though They are probably right about this one. David, John, and Amy take a case involving a missing child, a monster that may or may not exist, and the horrifying realization that reality is negotiable. Pargin's third novel leans harder into conspiracy, dread, and the exhausting work of being the only sane person in an insane situation.
