The Saturday Night Ghost Club by Craig Davidson

Absolutely stunning. This one really sank it’s hooks into my heart. Hauntingly beautiful, this one is going to stick with me for a while.

We Had to Remove This Post by Hanna Bervoets

2.0

I read this purely for the hype around it and now I’m severely disappointed. Every time the book tries to engage in real life commentary, it falls flats and decides to push forward a more boring narrative.

Patricia Wants to Cuddle by Samantha Allen

4.0

Absolutely ridiculous in all the best ways! Some incredible moments of fear & plenty of laughs, this book is an absolute thrill. Quite a slow burn considering the short length.

Here There Are Monsters by Amelinda Bérubé

5.0

Bleak, melancholic and chilling. Some stunning character work weaved amongst a tale of loss & terror. Beautiful.

Burn It All Down by Nicolas DiDomizio

5.0

Probably the most fun that I’ve had with a book in a long time! This one is for the girlies, the gays & the theys. It’s like if Thelma & Louise adopted a gay baby & injected it with pure queer humour and heart. Gia Rossi is a gay icon!

The Final Girl Support Group by Grady Hendrix

5.0

Grady Hendrix is a genius. This book is a love letter to my favourite horror subgenre and Hendrix has created a masterpiece in this stunning homage. Incredible character work, high tension and plenty of guts and gore. Truly phenomenal!

Curse of the Reaper by Brian McAuley

5.0

Such a fun read! This is definitely one for lovers of Wes Craven. Great concept, even better execution and brilliant twists. The world felt completely lived-in & I’m craving for more!

Still The Beast Is Feeding: Forty Years of Rocky Horror by Rob Bagnall

5.0

This is my second time visiting this book since it’s release and its still a lot of fun! Informative, anecdotal and filled with a lot of love for Rocky, it’s perfect for any fan.

A Good Year by Polis Loizou

5.0

A claustrophobic gothic filled with folklore and queer desire. An absolutely beautiful read that remains captivating throughout.
