I’m working my way through Dead Sea by Tim Curran, maybe 25% in. So far I like it but there are times when I feel like it’s dragging a bit.
Also listening to the audiobook for Let Me In by John Ajvide Lindqvist. Almost finished and have been really enjoying it.
I’ve been on a Stephen Graham Jones kick. I read “Only Good Indians” last month and am finishing up “Mongrels” right now. OGI is great I def recommend it
I just started Grand Hotel by Scott Kenemore. It has a pretty bad rating on Goodreads but I’m enjoying it so far, it’s giving AHS Hotel plus a little Chaucer with all the weird individual stories.
I listened to the audiobook and thought it was pretty good.
I’m near the end of The Ruins by Scott Smith. I am not enjoying it although it is enthralling and dreadful. I feel bad for everyone and they do such foolish things. The “villain” is terrible and relentless. I can’t not finish but it is NOT a fun read. Just misery.
I just finished Echo by Thomas Olde Heuvelt. I found it to be a more unique story, pulling from a wider variety of influences for the sources of the scares, than his previous novel Hex even if it ended up being a bit more uneven as result. I still think when it works it really works, but there were certainly portions of the book where it lost steam for me as well. Definitely looking forward to seeing how his next book Oracle turns out!
Next, I’m planning to start The Hacienda by Isabel Cañas for some classic gothic haunted house vibes hopefully!
Almost done with Adam Nevill’s No One Gets Out Alive. Does it go without saying that the book is better than the movie? Movie is hardly anything like the book anyway. Recommended for those into supernatural stuff.
Just finished Last Days and really loved it. I’ll add this to my TBR.
