My April 2026 Horror Review Column is now live on the LJ site and in the current issue of the print magazine!
In this post I have gathered the titles with my three words and links to my full draft reviews on Goodreads. Click on the titles for readalikes and more appeal information.
First this month's 3 STARS:
- I Know A Place: Rest Stop and Other Dark Detours by dark humor, immersive, a road map to a singular voice)
- Dead but Dreaming of Electric Sheep by AI Horror, character centered, unique, disorienting (on purpose) and compelling narrative style)
- But I Won't Miss Me by Tiffany Tsao (maternal/body horror, slightly askew to our world, discomfiting)
And the other 5 excellent titles:
- I'll Watch Your Baby by Neena Viel (physically upsetting, generational trauma of systemic oppression, possession)
- Interview with the author in this issue. Link will be added when it goes live online
- She Waits Where Shadows Gather by Michelle Tang (Spotlight on International horror lore, intense unease, dual points of view)
- Accumulation by Aimee Pokwatka (immersive, quickly escalating terror, haunted house)
- Dead Weight by revenge, unsettling first person narration, visceral)
- Abyss by Nicholas Binge (intense disorientation, Lovecraftian, Tech/corporate horror combo)
