⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "It's so hard to find truly good werewolf novels with substance and both Heat (and the first one Hunger) delivers everything anyone could ever ask for. Slightly humorous with a hint of spice and a whole lot of adventure and action. It leaves you begging for more each and every chapter..."
I bought this used copy of Stephen King‘s Misery years ago, and I haven’t gotten around to reading it until now. Sacrilege, I know. I had never read the book, only seen the movie. Spoiler alert: the book is obviously better. 🖤 I get to pages 162 and 163, a dark night of the soul scene, and I find this leaf pressed between the pages. It’s autumn and my yard is full of similar leaves. Not sure how this fragile memento made it past the bookstore, or how long it’s been there, but I love finding treasures like this. It made my day. ❤️ #stephenking #misery #autumnvibes #autumnleaves #pressedleaves #bookaholic #horrornovel #horrorbooks #horrorstories #horrorbookstagram #booklovers #authorsofinstragram #usedbooks #bibliophile #bookstagrammer #booknerd #authorlife #bookaddict #booknerdigan #readersofinstagram #amreading #read #reading #read https://www.instagram.com/p/CkycphQLvx-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
I'm still groggy and worn out after a bout of migraine, but fortunately I've managed to pick up a book and read for the first time in ages, which is a good thing. Yay for horror novels. . . . #currentlyreading #currentread #horrorreaders #horrornovel #horrorjunkie #horrorreads #horrorfan #horrorfiction #bookstagram #bibliophile #bookworm #bookdragon #ilovebooks #ilovereading #booksaremagic #booksareneveroutoffashion #readingiscool #readingissexy https://www.instagram.com/p/CqD18PGIu0C/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
A House With Good Bones
★ ★ ★ ★
Man, does T. Kingfisher know how to create the perfect setting for a horror story. You'd think something as banal as a home in a small neighborhood wouldn't be so creepy. But when it's done right… I'm trying to say that A House with Good Bones is a must-read for all paranormal and horror fans.
I think all the familiar elements help create that profoundly unsettling feeling. We all have that one family member with extremely outdated (read: racist) views. Likewise, who doesn't have an attic a little too full of junk?
This sets the tone for everything that follows, as Sam and her mother quickly find themselves in the center of something much darker. Interestingly, there's a lot of depth and layers to this horror/paranormal incident. That made it all the more compelling. Not everything is so black and white - even in the paranormal world.
Bonus points for having a paleoentomologist main character that is unashamed of her weight and the potential romantic subplot. Sam's character is perfect, and I will fight anyone who says otherwise.
Highlights:
Ghost Story
Horror
Gothic Fantasy
Paranormal
Reading #theancestor by #danielletrussoni This was in a blond box and supposedly a #horrornovel I didn’t read the synopsis.

The door burst open, and the coroner lunged out of the dark morgue into the brightly lit hallway. He lunged head first to the opposite wall, then having no more room, he turned and leaned against it. He stood panting heavily, watching the door close and latch behind him.
Is it going to follow me out?

"That compulsive feeling tingling at the base of my neck, I gaze back… enormous wide piercing silver eyes loom, the man with dreads sits kneeling, wrists snapped and dangling, but raised like some kind of twisted, woeful prayer, as though venerating the monstrosity in the darkness."

Pictured is my haul from my favorite used bookstore, The Title Page in Rosemont. It’s owned by a little old married couple and they know where everything is, even though the shop’s stuffed like an attic. I love listening to them chat about baseball while I shop. They’re adorable. 🖤 In #HatchetGirls news, my WME film agents officially sent out the manuscript to TV/film producers. There are actual celebrities on this list that make me feel very Hollywood. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. 🖤 The latest round of copyedits has been turned in and I’m just waiting for an official release date and some cover sketches. I can’t wait for the fun parts to begin! 🖤 . . . . . . . . . . . . #usedbooks #usedbookstore bookaholic #yaauthor #YAnovel #horrorstories #Latinx #booklovers #authorsofinstragram #horrornovel #YAhorrornovel #ireadYA #bookstagram #bibliophile #bookstagrammer #bookaholic #writing #instawriters #writinglife @instagram #scaryreads #scarybooks #spookybooks #spookytales #ghoststory #booknerd #bookaddict #horrornovel #booknerdigan #horrorstories https://www.instagram.com/p/CjoHhtWL64N/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
