Book Blogger Hop's purpose is to give bloggers a chance to discover and follow other blogs, learn about new books, befriend bloggers, and gain followers. Each week the hop will start on a Friday and end on Thursday where there will be a weekly prompt following a bookish question.
Question:
Recommend one horror novel for non-horror readers. (submitted by Billy @ Coffee Addicted Writer)
Answer:
I am going to cheat and recommend two. The first being a middle grade horror, City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab and The Dreadful Tale of Prosper Redding by Alexandra Bracken. I think these two middle grades have the right amount of spook and adventure for me. I absolutely loved them. My second recommendation would be either Horns or NOS4A2 by Joe Hill. When it comes to Halloween reads I tend to prefer atmospheric spooky reads versus full blown horror/mysteries, which is why I tend to lean middle grade/young adult. But I do like to read Joe Hill, Stephen King, and Neil Gaiman. I definitely need to read more Gaiman. I’m hoping to make that a 2019 goal of mine.
I have both of the Joe Hill books and still need to read them!
ReplyDeleteI highly recommend them!!! They're so good.
DeleteGreat picks Heather I absolutely loved and enjoyed reading City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab so much, and I really want to check out The Dreadful Tale of Prosper Redding by Alexandra Bracken and Joe Hill books as well.
