pick(2019 Ed.) It's a fast and humorous love letter to horror films in the form of a handbook for readers who think they might be in a horror movie and wish to survive. I expect that it would appeal most to horror fans: others may not get the joke, mistake it for ridicule, or find that it wears out fast. But I dug it, and if you enjoyed the Scream series for its meta commentary, or Cabin in the Woods for any reason at all then you may too.
pickThis book was gripping from the start! I wish the ending was less open ended but it was still definitely worth the read 😁
pickTo me it is Alien meets the Overlook Hotel with a twist of Total Recall. While the novel is full of actual scientific theories and facts, Barnes does not overload the reader with terms and facts. I did not see the ending coming at all! Everything I thought about Karl (the only other “living” person on the ship) was wrong. While the beginning is a bit of a slow burn, once things got going they did slow down and I could not put Cold Eternity down.
Has anyone of yall read I'll Be Waiting by Kelley Armstrong? It sounds like an interesting concept and creepy. If you have is it more scary or just creepy? I'm a chicken so I need to know if I need to read other during the day LOL
pickWhen Arthur Beaucarne's long lost journal falls into the hands of his descendant, the story of his visitations from Great Stab, a member of the Pikuni tribe, come to light for the first time, revealing a terrible and violent history. A tragic story of devastating loss, this gripping and original take on vampires is a must read for fans of Stephen Graham Jones.
pickOh man.. what a story! I‘m really enjoying all these creepy classics lately 📚 This was long but held my interest throughout. I‘m happy I listened to it as an audiobook tho 😅
Collected from Web Toon, this volume is a collection of stories about the floating skull of Oscar Zahn as he carries out his paranormal investigations. I really like monster of the week stories & the first half of the book scratched that itch, the second half of the volume delved into Zahn's background & was a bit unsatisfying. As this was a library book, overall can't really complain! A pick,
pickMay selection for the IRL Constant Readers Book Club. It‘s a re-read for me. I had forgotten quite a bit about the story, so I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting it. It boasts incredibly likable characters and a unique perspective on the concept of author pen names. It seamlessly weaves together classic horror elements that King is renowned for, while also enduring the test of time.
