October is one of my favorite months. If you’ve been reading this blog for awhile, you know how much I love scary and spooky things.
In previous posts, I’ve shared some of my favorites from ghost stories to creepy YA books.
So to celebrate the scary season, I thought I would share some of my recent reads and also include books I’ve put on my To-Be-Read (TBR) list.
Some recent spooky books I’ve read:
Servants of the Storm by Delilah S. Dawson
Please Remain Calm by Courtney Summers
The Girl with All the Gifts by M.R. Carey
NOS4A2 by Joe Hill
In the After by Demitria Lunetta
Doctor Sleep by Stephen King
Right now, I’m reading The Southern Reach trilogy by Jeff Vandermeer.
Definitely creepy and glad that all three books are all out. I’m currently reading Authority, which is the second book in the trilogy.
I also have put these books on my ever TBR leaning tower. Most of these are YA but there are some adult titles as well:
Ghost Summer: Stories by Tananarive Due
Bleeding Earth by Kaitlin Ward
A Head Full of Ghosts by Paul Tremblay
Asylum by Madeleine Roux
The Girl from the Well by Rin Chupeco
Slasher Girls & Monster Boys edited by April Genevieve Tucholke
Do you love scary stuff? Have you read anything that kept you up at night? Given you nightmares? Or highly disturbed you? Let me know about it. Haha.
I just added like 6 of these to my Goodreads. I’m ready for some thrills!! <3
So glad you were able to find some book recs for your list! :)
I really want to read THE GIRL FROM THE WELL. That might be next on my list.
I so enjoyed NOS4A2 by Joe Hill — love his kick ass female propagandist and her geeky husband.
