About this listen
(Pronounced App-uh-latch-uhn Si-reen) A Backwoods Splatterpunk Horror
Jimmy Lynch and Charlene Doyle have a dysfunctional relationship. They are both originally from the mountains of western North Carolina but now live in the suburbs of Atlanta. Neither one has assimilated to suburban life. Nor are they good people.
Jimmy is an insensitive, abusive man with a terrible temper. Charlene is a petty criminal who is a habitual cheater. A horrific incident occurs at their home one night that turns their suburban life upside down. As we get to know Jimmy and Charlene better, we learn there is more to them than being flawed. The abovementioned incident causes them to evolve into the darkest type of human.
Appalachian Siren is an 18+ backwoods horror/splatterpunk book. This book also contains a lot of graphic sex.
Triggers: Infidelity, Domestic violence, Group sex, Graphic murder scenes, Torture, Disembowelment, Dismemberment, Desecration of corpses, NC, Unsafe BDSM scene

Story
No one saw it coming. It started with isolated reports of people kidnapping babies and blending them to drink their ‘essence’—a highly potent and highly addictive chemical compound found in infants. The phenomenon spread through social media, infecting other addicts. Cases of kidnapping and murder—femicide and infanticide—skyrocketed, leading to governments around the world to issue state of emergencies and strict shelter-at-home orders. But it was too late. Society had collapsed into itself.

Story
Raised in a household so filthy it was stomach-spilling, Vera involuntarily evolved into a neat freak. Upon discovering she and her disabled husband, Daniel, are expecting, she needs fast cash. Her obsession with cleanliness sprouts the concept that her skills can be put to use in a unique way. She takes a stab at the booming door-to-door vacuum sales business of 1988. All is going well until she arrives at the steps of a house that will change her forever. The steps of an evil that resurrects the ghastly memories she so desperately tried to wash away.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

Entertaining and violence galore
A great listen that starts quick and doesn’t let off the gas. I loved the character development of Charlene, and the last several chapters were packed full of the gore and violence I look for when reading this genre.
Lila does an amazing job with the narration and really gives the characters life and showcases their personalities.

Erotic splatterpunk? Yep!
Rather than a romance, this focuses on Jimmy and Charlene. They are two very broken people who deal with similar demons. Former Backwoods homesteaders who end up in a suburb where they clearly don't fit, Charlene has some serious fidelity issues. Jimmy is more educated, although he hangs on to his back-home roots. He has made a life for them so they can live in a decent home in the area. Then it all goes pretty damn dark.
The story intertwined the characters and their actions very well. The antagonist/protagonist roles changed a few times back and forth, and I believe it was done well. The story's ending left it wide open yet closed. So, will there be another book? I'm interested to see where this story may go.
After listening, I need a sequel! Charlene!
Check your TW. There are a few things that may not be for some folks, but this is an excellent take on the erotic horror genre. It's a nice, quick read, fast-paced, and has enough drive to keep your interest.
And Lila Kerry's narration? Perfection! She brought this story to another level!

Entertaining and engaging!
Appalachian Siren by Leslie Kurt
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This is a super crazy and very entertaining horror/splatterpunk story! There’s definitely lots of R+ rated scenes throughout, as well as gore!
Some actions at home make Charlene and Jimmy take off into the woods to start new lives. Once there, they find that they have a mutual new hobby, which they both seem to enjoy!!
They make a killer couple!! ❤️🔪🩸
This is my first book from this author and I really enjoyed her writing style. It was well written and I liked the storyline. The ending was fantastic too!
I listened to the audio version and the narrator did a fantastic job!
It’s out now, so grab your copy when you need something to keep you engaged!!

Crazy Ride
It was fairly short but it all came together really well. I really enjoyed the ending as well, I loved Charlene’s character development! It was a great mix of erotica and horror. The storyline was not what I expected to happen, which I liked! Plenty of twists and turns as well! Appalachian Siren was a great listen, the narrator did a great job helping bring the character to life as well.
