Extremely liberal, ex-pat. Will delete MAGAts & other deplorables without delay. No DMs & if you're not dressed, don't bother. NOT THE SLIGHTEST BIT INTERESTED IN YOUR RELIGION! If you're following 40k already, why bother?
"Whatever came next, the waiting was done."

The author presents an extremely complex tale full of dread & horror but manages to encapsulate all of it with beautiful prose & characters you can't help but care about! Not the fastest pace read but still A+!

"All was black. All was darkness. A place for monsters."

This was so much fun to read! Starts off pretty depressing: eldest child is dying from a very aggressive form of leukaemia. But dad asks local Chinese mystic for "help" & well, things get wild!

"I don’t forgive you."

Very intense psychological horror exploring this "situation" through the eyes of three different leads. I won't say if they're protagonists or antagonists … mostly because I'm not sure they know either to be honest. Quick read!

"I help supernatural creatures have sex with each other."

I loved this book featuring tons of monsters & more. Plus Rasputin? What a great guy, not only running a dating service for the supernatural but he invented National Oral Sex Day, too. My hero!

"I invited this into my life. I killed my wife."

Reads like an overfilled tea kettle getting ready to blow (um, do tea kettles do that?). The tension is high in this gory, sometimes filthy (sex-wise) caper that reads "fuller" than most novellas! Fun!

"I would’ve been better off dead."

A ghoulishly (hee hee) enjoyable book! Poor Rodger just isn't ready to accept his wife's death. But what happens when a victim from another horror begins to take an interest in his plight? In a word: YUCK!

"The world was silenced by the sound of weeping."

An interesting take on a weeper/zombie outbreak in Ireland focusing less on the militaristic side of things and more of the emotional and mental toll of the actors.

"Luck, unfortunately, was always in short supply in the holler."

Welp, just so you know: none of these here vampires sparkled or pouted or nothin. But that vampire sure gets to a'killin' pretty quick once he gets out of that there coal mine! Original!

"This is a brutal book… Because this is a book about power…"

An incredible tale featuring the struggles of pregnant girls in pre-Roe vs. Wade America. Sure, the witches are important but these young women steal the show!

"This place ain’t healthy. Not right. Not for you."

This was a fun read, not only because of the author's talent but also because it was developed as a screenplay. It leads to some interesting scenes as well as open questions (was she a witch?).

"I give you… the bloodiest, the most murderous, the great-est monster of us all. MAN."

An all-time classic! R. Chetwynd-Hayes' "Monster Club" - the book, not the movie - is a treat for any reader, not just horror lovers! Exquisitely presented!

"Spiders. They’re inside me now. I feel them in my veins."

I must confess up front that I am not a fan of spiders. Which made this tale about genetically enhanced spiders even creepier! A quick read with lots of hairy-legged action!

Loved this fantastic mix of classic monsters in space in the 35th century! All that and AI units getting in touch with their feelings! So much fun!

"I’m going to have fun tonight, even if it kills me."

This masterfully named book was a hell of a lot of fun! Just replace the weird/crazy slasher from your fave horror movie with a mummy with an axe & you're set to go!

"It was a beautiful night to see something potentially terrifying."

An okay story with v.little actual horror, tho I remain steadfast in saying that Shea is one of the best horror authors active today! Still, if you love all things Mothman, a good read!

"We aren’t required to live the story that’s expected. Our lives belong to us."

Again a fantastic reimagining of a classic monster story! However, "The Creature" pales to the storm waiting to destroy everything in its path!

The best compliment I can give this wonderful wild western tale is I want to re-read it immediately! A fantastic journey through the old west w/ action, magick & emotion galore!

Wait — Ouija board?"

The name of the game is indeed "Kill the Babysitter" & young Jane is in for a lot more than she could have ever bargained for! Retro horror fun!

"Does he really have an urge to kill?"
"All children do these days."

A wild, humorous mix of "stuff" (no horror) that maybe approximates "Pinocchio". Probably not. You decide (if I have to, I'll pull all my own teeth out)...

"On the 11th of April, 1983, unto me a son was born ...
and I felt nothing."

So torn. I could have rated this 5⭐s or even just 1. A thought-provoking & wonderfully executed story even if I wound up disliking almost every single character. Must read!

"He didn’t know why he’d do such a thing. It shamed and disgusted him.
He was just so damned hungry."

An outstanding read. I didn't find it all that scary per se - much more "icky" than anything else- it's a very well executed story. Worth a read!
