Today, a few days early, LJ published my April 2023 review column Horror Review Column in Library Journal with my three words and links to my full draft reviews on Goodreads.
Side note: I keep getting confused because I am currently reading for my June column deadline in a few weeks, but this is the April Column
First the STARS:
- The Salt Grows Heavy by Cassandra Khaw [Visceral, Reclaiming a Myth, Lush]
Everything the Darkness Eats by Eric LaRocca [emotionally resonant, cosmic twist on small town horror, strong characters]
- Bitters by Kaaron Warren [original, sinister, immersive]
- Interview with the author in this issue [link coming soon]
And the other 5 excellent titles:
The Screaming Child by Scott Adlerberg [haunting, portrait of grief, slice of life]
- Maeve Fly by C.J. Leede [Engaging Narration, Disturbing, Dark Humor]
- No One Will Come Back For Us and Other Stories by Premee Mohamed [confident, full spectrum of dark speculative, reclaiming Lovecraft]
- Graveyard of Lost Children by Katrina Monroe [visceral dread, horrors of motherhood, honestly thoughtful]
- Paradise-1 by David Wellington [action packed, intensely creepy, cliffhanger ending]
