Who wants to read horror?

The Twisted Ones by T. Kingfisher is a good starter. Not too scary but creepy as hell.

The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones for something written less traditionally.

The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires and My Best Friend’s Exorcism by Grady Hendrix for something more action horror.

Cold Moon Over Babylon by Michael McDowell for an older classic.

A Collapse of Horses by Brian Evenson or Mouthful of Birds by Samanta Schweblin for experimental collections.

I just finished The Twisted Ones! It was a nice little creepy story and I really loved the protag and her dog. :)

I browse the suggestmeabook or cozyfantasy subs on reddit, but more often than not I just wander my library and grab something that looks interesting. Doesn't always work out but I enjoy the process.

No where, really. I’ve tried Goodreads, TikTok, and Instagram, but none of them have really worked for me. All the recs have either been really boring or not for me.

I don't really read books anymore, but if I were, the main source would probably be stuff on Instagram for the most part. Other than that, I just go to online shops and search for what interests me.

For me there's Tumblr and Goodreads, but so much of finding anything close to a trust-worthy list has been reading through comments and going with 'gut feelings' to see which ones are actual recs or are just a collection of the bare minimum of what I want to read being included.

I'll listen to a podcast or watch a documentary and take note of their sources. I'm probably already interested in the topic so digging in deeper is fun.

Also, friends.

Also, also, reading through the new IP I'm obsessed with.

From librarians at my local library. So far, it’s worked well!

goodreads, thestorygraph (better than goodreads for recs imo), and on reddit:
/r/cozyfantasy, /r/IReadABookAndAdoredIt, /r/BooksThatFeelLikeThis, /r/HorrorLit, /r/PrintSF, /r/suggestmeabook, /r/booksuggestions

Merphy Napier. I can usually tell from her reviews if I'll like a book or not.
