I’m kicking off the first Friday of Summer of Horror with a list! Last summer I explored color in horror book covers, and this year I’m tackling some horror tropes, both familiar and a little off the beaten path. Haunted or possessed dolls is one of the creepier themes in horror, and while it’s not […]
Welcome to Future Fiction, my reimagining of the Waiting on Wednesday meme! There are so many amazing new books coming out, that I can no longer pick just one. My goal with Future Fiction is to share at least three new books each week, a combination of recent cover reveals and books that I’ve recently […]
The nitty-gritty: A complex, fantastical coming-of-age story that explores fame, family ties and the blurred boundaries between fantasy and reality, The Children is a mesmerizing tale that will haunt readers with its sense of foreboding and wonder. “Her whole rib cage ached with understanding.

I’m posting this a few days early since I won’t be able to share any more reviews this month. I didn’t read as much as I wanted to in May, but some months are like that. I reviewed eight books and most of them were excellent! Below I’ve ranked my May reads in order of […]
