Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia is one of the best books I've ever read. Seriously, this inter-text woven with gothic lore, fantasy hijinks, a dash of romance, and riveting plot twists make for an excellent book. I haven't binged a book this hard in a while! I was skeptical at first about this book because… Continue reading Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia – Book Review

Fazbear Frights #1: Into the Pit by Scott Cawthon Book Review
Welcome to a world of middle-grade horror inspired by everyone's favourite animatronic pizza parlour. Five Nights at Freddy's is a staple in indie horror (and now mainstream horror as well), that of course they decided to open up their lore-filled world into the land of literature. We saw the introduction of FNAF into our YA… Continue reading Fazbear Frights #1: Into the Pit by Scott Cawthon Book Review
#BookReview The Cemetery Boys by Z Brewer
Z Brewer has always been one of my faves. Back in my high school days I binged Vladimir Todd over and over. I distinctly remember going to Borders (RIP Borders) and requesting a great YA read that would keep me hooked. They presented me with Vladimir Todd and instantly I was in love. Z Brewer's… Continue reading #BookReview The Cemetery Boys by Z Brewer
#BookReview The House with the Clock in Its Walls by John Bellairs
The House with a Clock in Its Walls is a delightful read for middle graders. Last year I finally got to see the film adaptation and I was blown away! I had so much fun with the legendary tale that was packed full of colour and imagination. Naturally, I wanted to give the book a… Continue reading #BookReview The House with the Clock in Its Walls by John Bellairs
#BookReview His Name Was Zach by Peter Martuneac
His Name Was Zach by Peter Martuneac is a thrilling and horrific zombie novel. In the last year or so I've been reading more zombie books. It's kind of amusing because I'm not the biggest zombie apocalypse fan, yet I just kept picking them up. People lent me zombie books, I accidentally stumbled upon them… Continue reading #BookReview His Name Was Zach by Peter Martuneac
#BookReview Bunnicula by James & Deborah Howe
Happy Spooky Month! This is my favourite time of year, so it's time to share some of my fave spooky reads! This particular book is a personal fave from my youth. Enjoy! Back in the day, Bunnicula was THE book to read in elementary school. The class clambered to the front of the classroom… Continue reading #BookReview Bunnicula by James & Deborah Howe
#BookReview Say Cheese and Die by R.L. Stine
Happy Spooky Month! Here's another spooky filled book to brighten up (or darken) your shelf! Who doesn't love a good throwback? Especially one from the master, R.L. Stine. I loved Goosebumps as a kid and I still love them now. They are the ultimate throwback and totally brightens my day. Sure, these books don't… Continue reading #BookReview Say Cheese and Die by R.L. Stine
#BookReview Blood Rain by Rajeev Singh
Blood Rain by Rajeev Singh is another dip into erotic horror that will steal the spotlight. Erotic horror is one of those criss-cross genres. It's creepy yet sexual (as the name implies) but hits in such a strange way. I don't know whether to be scared, horrified or shocked. A group of five get isolated… Continue reading #BookReview Blood Rain by Rajeev Singh
#BookReview Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
One of my life long reading goals is to pick up more classics, and since I am ALWAYS in a Halloween mood I figured Frankenstein would be right up my alleyway. But let me set the record straight, Hollywood has done Mary Shelley some dirty. This book was NOTHING like what Hollywood told me, and… Continue reading #BookReview Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
#BookReview The Fourth Closet by Scott Cawthon
The Fourth Closet by Scott Cawthon tied up some of the FNAF literature universe, but opened up a whole 'nother can of worms. I was a little too hooked to this book, but mainly because I am totally obsessed with the FNAF lore. The video games, the potential movie, the books! All of them… Continue reading #BookReview The Fourth Closet by Scott Cawthon
