2023 was a good year for reading! For some reason it was an entry into the Horror genre for me. I didn’t realize that horror books are very different than horror movies- they are usually less gory, but can be a lot scarier! If you want to give one a try, look at My Heart is a Chainsaw by Stephen Graham Jones (which comes before Don’t Fear the Reaper which was excellent), or if you really want to be creeped out, read A Head Full of Ghosts by Paul Tremblay.
I also enjoyed a little magic and fantasy with the adventurous tale of Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros, The Women Could Fly by Megan Giddings, a possible future story, My Murder by Katie Williams, and the charming Spells for Forgetting by Adrienne Young.
Finally, I enjoyed some fantastic stories that seemed like real life in Honor by Thrity Umrigar, Night of the Living Rez by Morgan Talty and the crazy, stream of consciousness No One is Talking About This by Patricia Lockwood. Happy Reading everyone!
