Did you like Fellstones, Christopher? I haven't read anything by Campbell in years, although I have The Grin of the Dark in my TBR pile. That one sounds folk horror-ish, which is right up my alley.

Did you..."


I loved it, actually. Five stars! A slow burn but with great cumulative power. I also highly recommend Grin of the Dark, which is in my top ten horror novels of all time.

I second The Grin of the Dark, one of the best horror novels I've read. Another slow burn, but when the implications of the story become clear, it's intense.

Currently reading stories from Conference with the Dead by Terry Lamsley

Char | 17459 comments I'm currently reading an author's debut novel: Jackal Jackal by Erin E. Adams .

I'm also reading a new release from Valancourt, it was translated from the original Italian: A Different Darkness and Other Abominations by Luigi Musolino . The first story blew me away.

Lastly, I'm listening to a previously unpublished release from Katherine Dunn, the author of Geek Love. Toad by Katherine Dunn

Rotating 5 books at the moment ( down from 11+) and just remembered that I got Rachel Hawkins's The Villa from NetGalley so started that today :)

The Villa
The Villa by Rachel Hawkins

Inspired by Fleetwood Mac, the Manson murders, and the infamous summer Percy and Mary Shelley spent with Lord Byron at a Lake Geneva castle––the birthplace of Frankenstein––The Villa welcomes you into its deadly legacy.

I'm around 70% in and am really enjoying all of the stories in this collection! That being said, it's taking me forever to get through it - I'm so bad at consistently picking up short story collections!
