I’m linking up with Top Ten Tuesday, which was created by The Broke and the Bookish and is now hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl. Check out upcoming Top Ten themes on Jana’s blog
Today is a Halloween Freebie on Top Ten Tuesday, and I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to showcase my favorite horror books of the year so far. I’ve read some amazing horror this year, so it was hard to narrow down my choices. That’s why I’ve chosen 15 outstanding horror books that you need to read. Click on the titles if you’d like to read my reviews:
I have my eye on Ghost Station. I’m not sure I want to continue with the Indian Lake trilogy – Don’t Fear the Reaper was a bit much for me! How are the gore levels in I Was a Teenage Slasher?

Pretty much the same, lol. Lots of slasher action, but also lots of heart.
I think I heard that We Used to Live Here was being made into a tv show!
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
Yes, I heard that too! I hope it actually makes it on the air:-)
So many of these sound amazing! I’ve been wanting to read Diavola (I loved her last book), and it’s on my list this week too! We Love the Nightlife looks awesome, and I’m hoping to find it at my library in the next few weeks.
We Love the Nightlife was very different and lots of fun:-)
Diavola has such a spooky cover.
I just picked up the audiobook of Diavola so I’m glad to see that one on your list.
Oh cool. I would love to hear what you think:-)
I haven’t read any of these but that’s not surprising
Ha ha no I’m not surprised:-)
Several of these are on my wishlist. Diavola, Incicents Around the House, We Love the Nightlife, Ghost Station. But where to start??
Start with Diavola!
Great list! I’ve only read Ghost Station which I did really like. I’m off to look up the other books, especially those 5-star ones. 😀

I adored the 5 star books but all of them are excellent:-)
Great list, I haven’t read any of these so thank you for the recommendations. I added a few to my TBR list.

Thanks for visiting!
The Redemption Of Morgan Bright is soooo good!!!
And even if it’s not really my thing, I have I was a Teenage Slasher on my TBR (thanks to you!) and I hope to read it, sooner or later!!
I would be so curious to hear your thoughts on I Was a Teenage Slasher:-)
Some of these look absolutely terrifying! I like a shivery story, but nothing so scary it’s going to give me nightmares. I value my sleep too much for that 🙂
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

Ha ha I totally understand!
I’m looking forward to so many of these. Thanks for sharing!
I hope you get to read them!
Just looking at some of these covers is giving me the shivers!! Surprisingly there are quite a few I do want to read. (I want to like horror!) I’m glad you read so many good ones this year! 🙂 Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier

So many great horror books. I’ve read We Love the Nightlife and Ghost Station and really liked them both. I just finished Incidents Around the House and it was okay and I think I’ve shared my thoughts on We Used to Live Here. Although I have to admit the more time that passes since I’ve read it, I don’t dislike it as much.
I hope the movie of We Used to Live Here gets made, I’m so curious about it.
I don’t read horror, apart from middle-grade horror, so I haven’t heard of these books before. I’m glad you enjoyed them!

Thanks for stopping by!
I haven’t read as much horror as I used to, so don’t know if I’d be able to come up with even 10 favorites for the year. But these are some I think I remember your reviews of and did add to my TBR!

I’m reading more and more horror for some reason!
We Used To Live Here is one that caught my eye a while ago but I still haven’t got around to reading it yet. It sounds so mysterious.
I really like the cover of American Rapture too 😀
I’ve read a few of these and they were all good. We Used to Live Here – wow. I hope this is adapted. SCARY
Lynn 😀
I’ll definitely have to check out A Haunting In The Artic sometime having loved The Lighthouse Witches. I’m intrigued by We Used To Live Here too, particularly as I’m sure I saw an adaptation mentioned. It’s wonderful that you’ve found so many horror hits this year.
Ah I really need to get on Ghost Station, dont I?
