Originally published in 1995, this dystopian novel has found a new audience thanks to BookTok. It tells the story of a girl and 39 women locked in an underground bunker, exploring themes of isolation and resilience. With no memory of the outside world, the protagonist becomes obsessed with escape and understanding her origins.

Childbirth is a beautiful thing — bringing life into the world, and all that — but it’s also scary as heck and pretty gross. Combine that with the dark arts, as Grady Hendrix does in “Witchcraft for Wayward Girls,” and you’ve got the makings of a fantastic body horror novel. Actually, it’s so much more than that.
