This was an excellent new installment of the Mercy Thompson series, a series a coyote shifter who is part of a werewolf pack. This round she is figuring out where one of the local vampires has gone and how is it linked to a series of slasher like murders? Perfect reading for Halloween! 5⭐️

This was a delightfully eerie historical horror about a small charming town, where things and people start to go very very wrong. Do not be deceived by the beautiful cover and the fact this is categorized as YA. This is very dark and violent at times. A great Fall read & I really enjoyed it! 5⭐️

I liked this but didn‘t love it. It is heavier on historical fiction/speculative fiction with horror elements. An alternative history version of the tragic Donner party incident. 3.5⭐️

This was excellent. A historical horror taking place in puritan New England with pagan folklore. Brom also does the artwork throughout the book which is beautiful. It also has a highly satisfying conclusion. I highly recommend! 5⭐️

This was action packed, violent thriller about a group of 9th graders forced to kill each other off. This modern classic has influenced so many things including Hunger Games and Squid Game. Definitely worth the read, though this is very violent, so beware. 5⭐️ #bodycountbingo - bingo! #bookspinbingo #Spookathon #Scarathlon2022 #TeamMonsterMash #31in31 #trappedonanisland

This was a beautiful fairy tale about a girl who is not thrilled with her impending marriage and gets herself and her brothers into a mysterious curse. This is a YA book, that would be fine for younger readers. I highly recommend! 4.5⭐️

Nessavamusic @TheAromaofBooks I am very tempted, I don‘t own this (got the audiobook on Libby) but am very tempted. I may at least order the UK edition 1y

TheAromaofBooks I don't know why the UK is better at cover design than the US, but I almost always prefer their versions! 1y
Nessavamusic @TheAromaofBooks I agree! Thankfully Book Depository has free shipping 1y
TheAromaofBooks Yes!! I order books from them frequently in order to get British editions. 1y

This was a funny, and occasionally heartbreaking original take on apocalyptic fiction. Our main character S.T. is a domesticated crow who goes on a grand adventure with his dog Dennis. Not a children‘s story - some horror elements, with a strong message about climate change. 4⭐️

This was really weird. Fun, but so weird. A man goes on a hike and falls into an adventure reminiscent of a video game. Funny and horrific, a very unique read. 4⭐️

I‘m giving this a borderline pick. It is an interesting possession story being told by the younger sister of the supposedly posed girl. It tries to make interesting points about religion, extremists and the media. However, none of them feel very substantial. Still a quick easy spooky listen. 3⭐️
