Yesterday, Robb Olson released an episode of his podcast, The ARC Party, featuring me and Emily Hughes talking doing part 2 of our 2024 Horror Preview. [You can listen to part 1 here]
Believe it or not this is just the tip of the Horror iceberg. I will be back next week with my annual Horror Genre Preview in the July 2024 issue of Library Journal. The issue also features an interview with Rachel Harrison as well. But this is a great place to start filling your carts.
See Robb's The ARC Party webpage or below to access the 2024 Horror Preview [Part 2] July-December with me, Robb, and Emily Hughes.
2024 is still here!
I know I’ve been planning my reading for the year for a while now. How about you? Are you in need of some recommendations? I have just the thing! It’s MORE ofThe ARC Party’s Horror Preview!
The reason this episode exists is because Emily Hughes aggregates a ton of information about forthcoming horror books every year, and posts a comprehensive, and frankly amazing list of them for everyone to use! You can find it here:
Becky wanted to celebrate the launch of the list by diving into some of the titles we’re excited about, so the three of us got together and did a month by month round table, talking about books we’re looking forward to.
Don’t worry! I know you’re going to want to do some shopping, so I made it super easy to pre-order these books, by putting together a list on bookshop.org. You can find it here, updated to include all of our new picks!
Here are all the books mentioned, their authors, and their current publication dates. If you want to read more about them, go to Emily’s list. If you want to preorder these books, go to my list!
