October 2020 - Thrillers/horror/spooky Book Help

Post by gali »

For this month, we will read thrillers/horror/spooky Books.

Thriller: This genre leaves readers at "the edge of their seats." There are feelings of suspense, anticipation, and maybe even anxiety as the reader dives deeper into the story. Plot twists, red herrings, and cliffhangers planted throughout the read is common for this genre.

Horror: This is a genre of speculative fiction that is intended to frighten, scare, or disgust.

Reading suggestions:

I am reading A hive of glass by P.M. Hubbard, but it isn't that suspenseful.

I'm reading
The Whisper Man
by Alex North. It is pretty spooky and I'm only 120 pages in. So far there are ghosts, a serial killer, and a possible copy-cat killer.
