Slightly Smiling Face“It is a great book to learn & research new horror books. I started reading it on Kindle but love it so much that I bought the paperback (buy the paperback!). The art and little synopsis are well thought out and make you buy all the books listed.”
Funny writingOriginal writingDarkThought-provoking
Anxious Face with sweat“I love a good book about other books. This was a really well written 101 recommendation list that I couldn't have gotten anywhere else. I added so many novels to my TBR (UGH), but it was definitely worth the read. I appreciated the authors attention to detail, the categories that she separated her recommendations into, and I loved how she was focused on current titles rather than older titles... we already know all the old horror classics, and while their recommendations are appreciated, being able to see new material is nice. 5 outta 5!”
