A Bedlam Bible story that's also A MURDER MYSTERY?!

I always love getting back into the 8th block tower with its bizarre residents and even more bizarre happenings. I never really know what to expect when starting one of these stories, but finding myself wrapped up in a murder mystery plot was such an excitingly wild plot twist right from the beginning.

I just knew this was going to be a wild ride and I was hooked from the opening. I loved that the MC is a complete amnesiac that has a mysterious and quite amusing voice in his head. Oh, yes this one was going to be fun. I love how this story started in one way and then twisted in turned in the most unusual ways only to end in a wildly different place that shouldn't make sense, but absolutely does.

I loved learning more about the origin of the mysterious "Bedlam Bible", the nod to "White Fuzz" via a Giant Slug, and the horrific game show- what a neat way to show these characters backstories and get you fully emotionally invested in them.

I wish we had had more of the voice in the head- he was hilarious.

I can't believe I only have one book left!
