This week on The Naughty New Mom Is My First Love Teacher (2025)theMashReads Podcast, we read and discuss Stephanie Perkins' new book There's Someone Inside Your House, a YA homage to classic slasher movies like Screamand I Know What You Did Last Summer.
The novel follows a teenager, Makani, who has moved from Hawaii to a small town in Nebraska to escape a secret from her past. But while Makani is trying to settle in, spark up a romance with the mysterious Ollie, and deal with all the typical angst teenagers feel, she must also grapple with the fact that there is a serial killer on the loose who is targeting teenagers just like her.

Then, as always, we close the show with recommendations:
Aliza recommends seeing Thor: Ragnarok. "It's not a perfect film. "I thought it was so much fun. It was so funny ... the cast are perfect human beings."
Peter recommends the movie The Killing of a Sacred Deerby director Yorgos Lanthimos. "It's a suspenseful thriller sort of horror movie, but only light on the horror. But it is absolutely terrifying."
MJ recommends seeing the new A24 movie Lady Bird. "It is so infinitely charming."
