oh i know exactly which prompt you reused and it's one of my favourites too ^^ i'm looking to read house of hunger for said prompt, if i can get hold of it! out of all these recommendations i've only read elatsoe, and i fully agree with your glowing recommendation. it's a book that is exactly what it needed to be, if you know what i mean? it hit all the notes it needed to hit, every sentence was purposeful, clearly crafted with so much love and care for both subject matter and the art of writing itself. ETA my memory sucks, i've also read how to kill your family and thought it was a pretty fun time! agree with the sex and the city meets dexter description; i called it "murder chick lit" to a friend lol. back to back with this i read another book in that same genre, how to kill men and get away with it. they were both 3 stars for me, popcorn reads yknow? wait maybe this is what people mean by "cozy mystery"... anyway, so if you're ever wanting another book with the same vibe, might check that other one out!
Height difference: For the Wolf by Hannah Whitten, Love on the Brain by Ali Hazelwood, Lore Olympus by Rachel Smythe, Fangs by Sarah Anderson, and Mrs Rochester's Ghost by Lindsay Alcott But age difference: The Lights of Prague by Nicola Jarvis, Demons of the Ocean by Justin Somper, In the Ravenous Dark by A.M. Strickland, Luster by Raven Leilani, Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas and Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier
I need help on the zodiac prompt, please. I've scoured dozens of zodiac-based reading lists, and apparently Cancers are not supposed to read gothic or SFF. The few books that even remotely qualify are ones I've already read and didn't particularly like. Do you know of any lists with space goth for Cancers? Or do you have any books you would recommend to an atypical Cancer like myself?
@@LadetteM Do you mean the one by Rivers Solomon? Yes, I liked that one a lot. But I'm really not much about the family/mothering/nurturing vibe, which I guess is very uncancerish. Unless it involves food. Too bad I loaned out my copy of the Cryptonomnomnom...
That is the one I meant! Okay if we want the watery vibes but not super emotional, I'd suggest something piratey maybe? The Adventures of Amina Al Sirafi?
Great recommendations! Can’t wait for Gothtober 💕
Me either 🥰
As always some fantastic recommendations and I'm so so excited for Gothtober this year!!
I feel like this theme more than others is right up your street!

Did you enjoy your little shout out? Also, go to sleep!
@@LadetteM of course! 😂😂😂 and I know I was awake laaaate 😇

So excited for Gothtober, I've been saving books all year for this that I'm hoping fit into the prompts 😂
Yesssss I hope you get to plenty of them!
Loving these books! Do you have any recommendations for the "age/height difference" prompt? Preferably something Gothic-y!
Height difference: For the Wolf by Hannah Whitten, Love on the Brain by Ali Hazelwood, Lore Olympus by Rachel Smythe, Fangs by Sarah Anderson, and Mrs Rochester's Ghost by Lindsay Alcott
But age difference: The Lights of Prague by Nicola Jarvis, Demons of the Ocean by Justin Somper, In the Ravenous Dark by A.M. Strickland, Luster by Raven Leilani, Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas and Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier
@@LadetteM Thank you so much for all the recs! ‘Rebecca’ is probably my favourite book of all-time ❤️
Then definitely try Catherine House and Just Like Home - same creepy vibes but very different stories!

The Deep by Nnedi Okafor, it's all about empathic Mermaids- water sign and big in touch with feelings!

@@LadetteM Ooh, yes, I even have a copy already! Thanks!!
No problem! Enjoy!
Is it too late to get the prompts? I tried the link to the game, but the site wouldn't respond at all.
It should still be working? There's loads of time to join! I'll be trying the game tonight so I check it's all up and running still!
@@LadetteM I tried a different browser and it worked! Looks like I am in the Wakanda Galaxy. 🙂
@skeletonkeybooks well done!
