Ooops, I'm reading that one too! I'm dying to know all of the answers! I have so many questions.


Teeth
I'm only on chapter three but so far, so very good! What are you all reading?"
I really enjoyed Teeth. It is such a different type of vampire story.


Oooh, The Yellow Wallpaper! I can't wait to get back to it.

The 21st the next installment will be up.

I have heard good things about Michelle Paver. But haven't read anything by her yet.

I've just started Wakenhyrst! I've only read Dark Matter and I really liked it.
This House of Wounds sounds amazing, can't wait to read it.

It is so good. The second story in the collection is one of my faves so far.


That book looks amazing.


It's not up on Amazon yet and no blurb. I want all the info. now. *cries*

The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson
I only gave it three stars as I have seen the movie so many times that it kind of ruined it for me by reading the book. I thought it would be more scarier, but there was no scare factor for me. :(

I also read Something in the Water by Catherine Steadman recently but didn't love it. It was okay. I keep trying thrillers but I usually just get so frustrated with the stupid choices made that it kinda ruins it for me. ...Maybe I should stick to ghost/monster stories.


So far I am only about 20 pages in and I'm enjoying it

Yeah I think Sarah has a collection coming from Trepidatio this fall :)

That's great news!!
I read THE WINTER PEOPLE previously, so I'm reading the comments, but can't comment, myself. ;)

I had no idea Paver had written a new horror. Thank you!

It sounds amazing. I hope it picks up for you.

Recently read Spell on Wheels by Kate Leth, The House Next Door by Anne Rivers Siddons, This House of Wounds by Georgina Bruce, and She's Lost Control edited by Elizabeth Jenike.

I'm going to start this one soon!


I like it so far. It's a different take on the vampire story and there has already been one skin crawlingly nasty scene. Loved it even it if it was completely disgusting!


That is one I can't wait to read. J.H. is amazing!

yeah she's having a bit of trouble but i'm so ready!

I recently read The "Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter" and "The Dark Descent of Elizabeth Frankenstein" and it feels like these three books kind of "go together." I'm loving this wave of gothic-inspired lady horror fiction we seem to be having lately!

I recently read The "Strange Case of ..."
I love the SJTR series, but I feel like it has to be taken with a grain of salt � it's definitely more character-driven than plot-driven, IMO, and the first book definitely has some weaknesses where you can tell it was Kerri's debut. That said, I had fun with it and thought books 2 and 3 were incredible! I'm so excited for the finale this September :D I hope you enjoy it as you continue.

I haven't read any of them yet but I love gothic-feely books. Once my schedule clears, I'm going to check them out.


STILL in my TBR pile....."
That's a good one. Beautiful and terrifying.

STILL in my TBR pile....."
