Spread Me by Sarah Gailey, narrated by Xe Sands
Did you watch The Thing and think, “I wish this were scarier and sexier?” Then Sarah Gailey’s Spread Me is for you. At a remote research outpost in the middle of the desert, Kinsey and her crew discover a mysterious specimen buried deep in the sand. They do what any scientists would do in this situation and bring the specimen back to their research facility to examine it. But the longer it stays with them, the stranger everyone begins to feel. Strange desires come to the surface, too. —Emily Martin
