What to read this weekend: A historical horror classic in the making, and an ex-Facebook employee’s tell-all

This week, we read Stephen Graham Jones’ The Buffalo Hunter Hunter, Sarah Wynn-Williams’ Careless People and the latest issue of the Image Comics series, Bug Wars.

In 2012, a worker pulls a crumbling journal from the wall of a church house, which turns out to be the transcription of an incredible confession made by a Blackfeet man named Good Stab 100 years prior. The confession, told to and written down by Lutheran pastor Arthur Beaucarne, chronicles Good Stab’s early life, his view of atrocities committed by US troops — including the real 1870 massacre in which about 200 Blackfeet members were murdered — and his violent, supernatural transformation into a blood-drinking creature set on revenge. Bug Wars is off to a really compelling start, giving us action right from the jump and promise of an epic (and violent) fantasy adventure, but also presenting a more delicate story about a family navigating grief and trauma.
