I agree, but it's important that you don't expect there to be a lot of action and thrill, because it's not really a plot-driven book. It is way more character-oriented and introspective. It is a really good book, but false expectations can ruin the reading experience, unfortunately (it happened to me and many of my classmates when we read it for school), but the discussions were so interesting

My number one goal this month is to finally read "Weaveworld" by Clive Barker. I've owned it for years and have read the first third of it TWICE, but I'm making it my mission to read it cover to cover this month. I also picked up "Ravenfall" and borrowed "The Strangers" from Libby, hoping some spooky middle grades will balance out the horror 💀🎃

One of my autobuy authors is Christina Henry. And a few years ago she came out with a book called The Ghost Tree and it is the only one of hers that I own that I haven't read yet. So I hope I get to that one. I have this four by four tbr that is menat to get me to read books that I just haven't gotten to for no good reason, and after I read The Jasmine Throne, I have another four lined up. The Ghost Tree is in this, as is Horrid, the Library of the Unwritten, and House of Salt and Sorrows.

So far I've read The Girl in White (definitely atmospheric but didn't like it too much), Halloween Fiend (definitely creepy), and Halloween Grindhouse - very excited to read the rest as well as Slewfoot. Since you seem to like gothic style fantasy/witches, I highly recommend Juniper and Thorn - love it so much!

I just recently found your channel and I love your videos, you seem super kind and sweet!😊 Since you mentioned that you love monster stories, have you heard of or read The Girl with All the Gifts by M.R. Carey? It's my favorite book and although it's not really about monsters as in "scary creatures", it is kind of about why something that seems to be a monster to humans at first might not be a monster in general. The main character is a 10 year old girl, who is very smart and sweet, but the adults in the book consider her a monster. It involves zombies (but it's not ABOUT the zombies, they could technically be replaced with anything "monstrous"). It has great characters with strong developments and an amazing writing style. Sorry for the long text, I just thought you might enjoy it :) Have a great day!🥰

I read Roger Zelazny’s A Night in the Lonesome October lent to me by a coworker last year. It’s fun because each chapter is a day in the month of October and it’s narrated by the pet familiars of various spooky icons, all trying to win a game that will either open or close the gate for the elder gods. It was a little repetitive and the ending is rushed but it’s fun because it’s sinister and subtle in its references and the various occurrences. I’d never think Jack the Ripper would be the good guy in a story 😂 if you can find a copy it’s short and worth it!
