Praise for Mother Is Watching
“Karma Brown explodes onto the horror scene with a terrifying tale . . . Proceed with caution!”
—Julie Clark, New York Times bestselling author
“Mother is Watching is eerie, compulsive, almost fanatical, about the fine line between motherhood and grief, and obsession and reality—a gripping, chilling entrance into the horror genre for the brilliant Karma Brown.”
—Ashley Tate, #1 national bestseller of Twenty-Seven Minutes
“Mother is Watching is a page-turning nightmare of a novel featuring a maybe-possession as well as a too-possible future technocratic patriarchy. Not since Ira Levin’s Rosemary Woodhouse have I been as stressed out and scared for a mother-to-be as I was for Tilly.”
—Paul Tremblay, New York Times bestselling author of Horror Movie and A Head Full of Ghosts
“With Mother is Watching, Karma Brown once again proves she’s an absolute powerhouse of an author, no matter the genre she chooses. Her first horror novel is smart, timely, intensely creepy, and delivers a downright horrifying ending. Read this one with all the lights on!”
—Hannah Mary McKinnon, internationally bestselling author of A Killer Motive
“Haunting, visceral, and eerily compelling, Karma Brown has expertly blended genres with Mother is Watching. Horror, dystopian, and feminist literature all fit together perfectly—it’s like Margaret Atwood meets psychological thriller, in the best way possible. You’ll never look at motherhood the same way again once you read this, Brown prods at it from angles you didn’t know were there, making it impossible to look away.”
—Kristen Perrin, New York Times bestselling author of How to Solve Your Own Murder
“The horror in Mother is Watching is not just Frankenstein by way of art conservation—which it is, terrifyingly—but the chilling near-future Karma Brown paints: one in which motherhood is commodified and controlled, and grief is the monster that must not be reanimated. I flew through this novel from the first page to its shattering end.”
—Katie Gutierrez, bestselling author of More Than You’ll Ever Know
