Thank you for time stamping each book. Because of that, you just gained a new subscriber. Great video also. I love how organized and thoughtfully done this is. Great job. I look forward to following your content.
These are some great choices! You've got me adding SOOO much to my TBR list! 😭🤣 I hope you don't mind me mentioning that Lamesa is pronounced Luh-MAY-suh. I'm in Texas and we have quite a few towns and cities that have names that are just a little bit tricky to pronounce including Watauga, Mexia, Balmorhea, Gruene, to name a few. Watauga is pronounced Wuh-TAW-guh and a friend of my dad's who was from the East coast once pronounced it "WAH-duh-OO-guh", so that's how my family says it now, haha. 😆 Also, a Librarian colleague of mine took some of Stephen Graham Jones's classes in college and has absolutely nothing but wonderful things to say about him as both a teacher and a person. Just makes you like an author even more when you hear things like that.
So happy you found some new books for your list! And thank you so much! I always appreciate a pronunciation tip (I mispronounce often but always try my best lol) I love to hear that about SGJ. He seems so genuine, so to hear that is amazing. Totally agree it makes you like an author even more!
I've got Smothermoss on hold from the library right now, SO excited for this one! And I read an ARC of Mystery Lights last month and it was outstanding, but I will say if you like your stories tied up neatly and tidily wrapped up, it may not be your thing. I love short stories that seem to plop you right in the middle of a larger narrative, so that you don't quite have a familiarity of how things started and maybe you don't get much a resolution, either. The kind of story where the author let's you peek through the door into someone's life and just when you're getting really intrigued--BAM!--they slam the door in your face. That's sort of what Mystery Lights did and I totally loved it.
🐝 I am absolutely horrible about actually seeking out books I see mentioned on booktube, but I am going to be on the lookout for Honeycomb to be released on audio. Or maybe I'll make the time to read it with my eyeballs. Because... I am intrigued!
thanks for the great collection - adding some of these to my list for sure! I didn't have the new Sarah Pinsker on my radar and I really tend to enjoy her books!
I love and will buy anything from both Stephen graham Jones’s and Brom! I have the ARC of Devils kill Devils and it’s really interesting. Definitely not what I expected.
Thank you for this video, i added so many books to my tbr! Could you please pretty please do a video like this but all about vampire books?? I need more vampire stories in my life!!
I read the ARC of Smothermoss, and it’s really good if you like lush, literary horror. I adored it, but I feel like it’s a book that a lot of people will not like because it’s not “traditional horror.” Thanks for sharing this list with us!
Hello fellow book lovely! I just found your channel and I'm so so excited to discover some new creepy, crawly, haunting, uncomfortable, darkish reads. I'm putting together my fall reading list now and I'll be going to a cabin in the woods and some of these sound absolutely perfect! Smothermoss looks gorgeous, but I do agree, I can see why it is all over the place. I love books that have creatures 😮
@@WickedScorpio Well if you ever need more recommendations, I'm always happy to help ❤ I'm almost done with the third book of the Black Winter Series and I'm not sure what I'll do when I finish the 4th and last book
@@WickedScorpio I've obviously read things throughout my life and liked it as a child but I just started my reading journey at the end of March.. now I cannot stop. 😂 I'm mainly fantasy but I dabble in other genres. Witchy, romance, thriller and horror etc. I'm not majorly picky. But the nature type stuff def. Sounds good.. with the magic mixed in. 😊
Smothermoss sounds interesting but 7:22 is giving me This Wretched Valley flashbacks lol The Deading and Ghost Mother fasho on my TBR now We are definitely in the era of movie/tv incorporated into horror, after Ep 13 I have high hopes! 30:33 yes pls heal me from We Sold Our Souls 🙏
Oh nooooo don't say that 😅 I'm hoping it on the opposite side of the rating scale for me compared to wretched valley lmao. Yesssss great adds 👏🏻👏🏻 100% getting so much movie/reality tv tropes. I'm not mad about it yet though.
LOL I'm just picturing your cats hanging off the curtains and swinging around your house 🤣🤣 BIG BROTHER MEETS BLACK MIRROR?!?! Say lesssss. I'm so into that 👀👀 I also LOVE SGJ writing so much. But Im not a fan of slashers so I'm so conflicted. But his writing is everything to me so I'll probably still pick it up House of bone and rain is one of my most anticipated reads. I loved his last book and that coverrrrr 🙌👏 I'm sooo interested to see how Rachel Harrison takes on vampires. Shes not one of my faves but I'll definitely give it a chance Devils kill devils was NOT what I expected at all. I still don't know how I feel about it lol. I rated it three stars cause I didn't love it but I didn't hate it. Very interesting story. I can't wait to see your reaction on the character Angelo 🤭🤣
They practically were 😂 I started the ARC and turns out it's not really a reality TV set up, just cameras to observe so that was a little bit of a bummer. I wanted a H20 thing going on lol. But im not done with it yet. Did you read my heart is a chainsaw by him? I knew you would be all over house of bone and rain! It sounds so good. I am a little nervous for so thirsty bc cackle was the last I read from her so she needs a redemption in my head lol.
🐝 so many new ones to look forward to I hadn’t heard of yet, thanks! 😺 (I hate the bad AI drawing energy coming from that cover of Dear Hanna too! I liked the actual book, but I still don’t get why there’s even a fox on it).
🐝 I love short stories so I’ll read Mystery Lights and let you know lol. Also, just got Mothered at the library. Haven’t started it yet but bummed it was just meh for you. I love mommy horror 😅
Thank you for your service 🙏😂 I hope it works better for you! I too love mommy horror lmao. I just finished motherthing and it's very "unhinged stream ofconsciousness, mommy issues" and I loved it 😂
🐝 I can’t “bee-lieve” I have to wait until 8/6 to read “Ghost Mother” by Kelly Dwyer! I haven’t heard of it and it sounds so good! 👻. Added to my TBR!!
The cover of The Deading has me like 🤢 but also 👀👂🪑 17:33 I agree. It looks A.I but also like taxidermy 💀 Literally counting down the days to September 10th 🖤😍🧛♀🍸 W1ll1am sounds kind of slay. I love the agoraphobia aspect of it. Not so sure about the AI side though. The title is kind of genius to me 🤣 🐝
Yesss I Was a Teenage Slasher I will happily "test read" We Love the Nightlife and let you know lol 🩸 So Thirsty is one I can't wait for. Still waiting for my copy of Such Sharp Teeth to come in. Oh, and I DNF'd Cackle 😬 Evil In Me is so good so far! Added Cicada to my TBR SO fast 🐝
Hahahah thank you for your service of test reading 😂 I'm conflicted over your dnf bc part of me feels validated, but I still wish you loved it for your sake lmaoo. Such Sharp Teeth is a must girl!!
Watched for the books.
Subbed for the cats.
They are nearly always in the background and making appearances 🥰
Thank you for time stamping each book. Because of that, you just gained a new subscriber. Great video also. I love how organized and thoughtfully done this is. Great job. I look forward to following your content.

I'll have my Q4 releases video going up in the next couple weeks! 🖤
These are some great choices! You've got me adding SOOO much to my TBR list! 😭🤣

Really looking forward for the new BROM book. Krampus is now a classic chrsitmas holliday read for me. Just subscibed, you have me Girl, keep rockin'❤
I haven't heard of honeycomb but now I'm interested. I put it on my Amazon list to pick up. 😊

Oooo I can't wait to hear your thoughts on it!!
hell yeah Honeycomb was already on my list 😄 can't wait to read it!!
I hope we both love it!
I just picked up I was a teenage slasher. I am so hit or miss with SGJ, so I hope I love this one 💕💕 thank you for this video love
I've heard good things so far so I hope you do too!

🐝 I am absolutely horrible about actually seeking out books I see mentioned on booktube, but I am going to be on the lookout for Honeycomb to be released on audio. Or maybe I'll make the time to read it with my eyeballs. Because... I am intrigued!
There's so many books, so it's hard to keep up even when you do seek out specific ones lol, but I hope you enjoy honeycomb if you get to it!
Thanks for this video! I hadn’t heard about most of them. 🖤
Happy I put some new ones on your radar!
Super excited for this video!
Omg Dear Hanna does look AI!!
Right!? Its so off putting to me
thanks for the great collection - adding some of these to my list for sure! I didn't have the new Sarah Pinsker on my radar and I really tend to enjoy her books!

The Deading sounds interesting. I love survival and apocalyptic type of books, so I may need to check that one out.🐝
Same!! Idk why I haven't read more of them.
@@WickedScorpio Well if you ever need more recommendations, I'm always happy to help ❤ I'm almost done with the third book of the Black Winter Series and I'm not sure what I'll do when I finish the 4th and last book

💚🖤🐝 Dear Hannah is a definite must read.
Smothermoss seems awesome 😮😊
Right!? I love a nature based horror. And someone said it reads very literary, which works for me

(I hate the bad AI drawing energy coming from that cover of Dear Hanna too! I liked the actual book, but I still don’t get why there’s even a fox on it).
You're welcome!
The fact the fox makes no sense for the story makes it even worse 😂
Brom is an auto buy from me. I love his books
And his artwork is stunning!

Yesss 👏🏻 every month is spooky for me though 😂👻
@@WickedScorpiolol I’ve noticed 😅 love it!!
I'm looking forward to A Mask of Flies in August 🐝
Ooo yes I've been seeing that one everywhere! I hope you love it 🖤
Hi there, I’m obsessed with horror novels. Have you read any of Judith Sonnet books? Crazy disturbing
I haven't. I will definitely have to look into her books! Thanks for the rec
🐝 I can’t “bee-lieve” I have to wait until 8/6 to read “Ghost Mother” by Kelly Dwyer! I haven’t heard of it and it sounds so good! 👻. Added to my TBR!!
Hahahah I love that. I'm excited for that one!! I hope we both love it 🤞🏻
🍯 love a good horror rec video 👏🏼😭
Yayy!! 🖤✨️
I'm looking forward to The God of the Woods. I might have to check out The Unmothers, it sounds like the movie Lamb.
Oooo yes you're so right! I will have to look into the God of the woods too!
🖤🐝
Smothermoss sounds like it might be dark fantasy which is interesting. Through the midnight door is the one I’m waiting for.
It totally does! Ooo you are going to be my person to go to for a review on through the midnight door 🖤
@@WickedScorpio lol I got you.
The cover of The Deading has me like 🤢 but also 👀👂🪑
17:33 I agree. It looks A.I but also like taxidermy 💀
Literally counting down the days to September 10th 🖤😍🧛♀🍸
W1ll1am sounds kind of slay. I love the agoraphobia aspect of it. Not so sure about the AI side though. The title is kind of genius to me 🤣
🐝
The perfect balance of gross and gorg 😂
Okay I did not even realize the use of '1' in rhe title 👀
Just a heads up Body Harvest is so unlike its back cover shares it which is why reviews arent good. Its more Bizarro horror than anything.
Good to know! Thanks
Just subscribed 🖤
Tysm!! 💖
Ghost Mother sounds interesting
@Sad.Purple.unicorn right!? I cant wait to check it out.
🐝🐝 and such lovely skin
Yesss I Was a Teenage Slasher
I will happily "test read" We Love the Nightlife and let you know lol 🩸
So Thirsty is one I can't wait for. Still waiting for my copy of Such Sharp Teeth to come in. Oh, and I DNF'd Cackle 😬
Evil In Me is so good so far!
Added Cicada to my TBR SO fast 🐝
Hahahah thank you for your service of test reading 😂
I'm conflicted over your dnf bc part of me feels validated, but I still wish you loved it for your sake lmaoo. Such Sharp Teeth is a must girl!!
You should check out “Crypt of the Moon Spider” coming out August 27th 🕷️🌙 highly anticipating this one the reviews are 🤌🏻🤌🏻 so far
Oooo the title alone has me interested! Definitely going to look into that one. Thank you!
@@WickedScorpio 🖤🖤🖤
I miss hearing my cats throwing themselves around. Oh right, this is about horror books
@@deadpilled2942 hahaha cats will always take the spotlight
🐝
🐝🐝🐝🐝💛🖤💛
🐝🐝
🍯 🐝
You should read Slewfoot by Brom
I have! I still need to read lost gods from his backlist, but honestly I probably won't get to it for awhile
I think all our critters are on a different level from us
I need whatever they're having 😂
Such Lovely Skin looks like Jordaline lol 🍯
You need to mention the first entry within the first 60 seconds or I'm out.
Mystery lights sounds so good but It looks like it’s not published in the uk 🥲
Nooo 💔 maybe if it gets popular enough it will get a uk print! 🤞🏻
@@WickedScorpio hopefully it’s too expensive otherwise 🤞🏻
