What I'm Reading: Horror Column in January 2022 Issue of Library Journal

I have 8 reviews in the January 2022 issue of Library Journal. Below are the titles with my three words and links to my full draft reviews. 

I want to remind everyone that I craft this column very deliberately to suit public library needs. Every single title is a great edition for all library collections. I do not allow myself more than 3 stars out of the 8 titles I review in each column. These are all Becky approved. Now the details.

First the STARS

• Felker-Martin, Gretchen. Manhunt. [band of survivors, thought provoking, action packed]
• Katsu, Alma. The Fervor. [constant unease, multiple storylines. historical]
  
• Madden, Hope. Roost. [original, constant unease, interesting frame]

And the remaining titles

• Barnes, S. A. Dead Silence. [visceral tension, engaging narration, excellent world building] 
• Bjerke, André. Lake of the Dead [translation, mystery-ghost story hybrid, compellingly creepy]
• Castro, V. Mestiza Blood: Stories [vengeance, unflinching, familiar tropes with new perspective]
• Mayquist, Kit. Tripping Arcadia [dark, lush, 21st Century Gothic] 
• Williams, Missouri. The Doloriad. [macabre, shocking, deeply unsettling]
