Typical Books of Terror: Horror Books and Fiction Discussion

Typical Books: Horror Fiction Unbound talks about horror books each week - novels as well as anthologies, collections and novellas. From new releases to classics, Lydia pulls from being a writer and reader to bring you a digest of horror happenings. I curate the members new release page on the Horror Writers Association website, and check in each month with other horror books coming out that I can find. I also review a book or two each month, and have polls so you can weigh in on what I"ll read

2024/05/26

This is a very small horror book haul featuring the Boris Karloff Horror Anthology, Dead and Buried by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro, Fountain Society by Wes Craven, and The Worm and his Kings by Hailey Piper… with a special unboxing of D.L. Tillery's new poetry collection Thorns of My Heart. I'll talk a little bit about what I'm reading right now, what I just read, and about some reviews forthcoming. The Haunting of Velkwood by Gwendoline Krist may just be my favourite book of the year so far

What is my style of booktube? A booktube identity, as it were. A really good question to which I ask: is horror a style? I mean, on the surface level you could say there is a horror aesthetic that many fans embrace, and skulls often find their place in our decor. Horror novels and being a horror reader may not, however, be as obvious - especially when our bookshelves when only containing books look a lot like any other genre fan. So, for a little fun thinkpiece, we delve into six questions about

2024/04/13

Like a dark and twisted Anne of Green Gables, this book was a welcome addition for me; and very well written for a debut novel. I was happily surprised at how much I related to the very odd and “unlikable” main character Ada Byrd. There was a great balance of late-Victorian references and modern sensibility, as well as a cozy atmosphere created by the diary style of the book. The ideas of intimate desire, reckless abuse and longing for friendship were so blurred at times, that there was a lovely

While I am not in the habit of posting poor reviews, I wanted to talk about these three books - even if I didn't like them much. I’ve rarely posted reviews of books that were not for me mostly because I chose narrowly from a narrow genre: horror. It is not to say they were poorly written at all, they are all good. I had waited for Waif and am so happy to own a copy; Nineteen Little Stab Wounds was a delightful find; My Throat an Open Grave is just a wonderfully complete package from pillar to

My preorder, book of the month, and review copy horror novel stash had built up to eight books since November. So, here we are at the end of the month with a little unboxing. This also marks the end of my read-what-you-own challenge. I'll be updating that more deeply in another video as I did learn a lot over the last few months. I hope to incorporate more reading from my shelves and less book buying going forward, for sure, but in a subtle way. Here we have some excellent books! A patron pick

2024/02/26

Disturbing books are so often synonymous with horror fiction. While there are classics, nonfiction, memoirs and other genres that are 'disturbing' I've found horror tends to populate the tops and bottoms of these iceberg images that are popular online. Is there a level below, sinking deeper than the murky depths? I would say there is...I recommend In A Lonely Place https://amzn.to/3OXLDM5 for those who want to remain in the top two levels of books like this. There is the original

I am culling the shelf in this video. Some of these I liked and want to pass on, some were not for me and one... I did not even read. Most un-haul videos feature tens of books, or over a hundred. I simply don't buy books like that I suppose, and have six to talk about. These are not slam reviews either, but honest points as to why I am setting these books free, to be hunted by others in the wild. Also, my progress on James Patterson's 'Virgin', a release day for 'All These

If this isn't a nouveau gothic, I don't want to know what is. Truly. I had a lot of fun with this and if you are not having fun with fiction then...

There are not too many books coming out in January 2024 that really caught my eye. Certainly, if you look at some publishers lists there are more, but nothing that really strikes me as

2024/01/11

It has been a good year for horror, and while 2024 promises to be better, how will I get to it all while reading less books? To end 2023 I talk about social media and how I've been slowly ditching a lot of it, and podcasts. Between the fun that is making a horror film podcast on Dead Air, and this show which is a podcast itself (an award winning one at that), I listen to A Lot of podcasts. I also talk a little about stress and how I refuse to let it in the door... and kind of always have. As

Here are some of the best novellas I read in 2023. While I am on the hunt for books on my shelf I have not read yet, I thought novellas would be a good bet. Turns out, I've nearly read them all! Not a mystery as to why; they are great and short easy reads. Looking for something to read in an afternoon? Here we are. In the meantime, be sure to check out the new amusement park horror, Carni by R. Saint Claire! https://amzn.to/3sSt6ch as mentioned! In horror literature, novellas are perfect

Did you read a lot this past year? Or, like me, somewhere around a book every week or two? Did you read a book a month? Twelve books a year is the honest average and the healthy challenge ~ so many of us here on booktube read so much that some even dip into triple digits. It is all well and good, especially when you get the fun of ranking them to ferret out the top ten! While my goal is still around 30 books, I do hope to read more. Is that perverse?

I'd read a few ooky spooky books in October but the stand out novel was Night in the Lonesome October by Richard Laymon. "There are others out there in the night, roaming the streets, lurking in the darkness―waiting to show Ed just how different his world could be. Some of them are enticing, like the beautiful girl who wants to teach Ed about the wonders of the night. Some are disturbing and threatening. Some are deadly…And in search of prey." A wild ride, like most Laymon, but tempered with the

On the 1st of November I'll choose the 25 books I'll be reading until... well, when I am done reading them I suppose. This is part of the 'Read what you own' challenge and it comes at a good time. For now, I'll show some of the wonderful books that ended up being part of my last book haul. Merrickville itself is a perfect little Halloween

Enter Boogeyman was sent to me for review by Acheron International: Thank you, Melina! While I am late in getting the news and review out, there are still 4 days left to go if you want to fund the printing of this anthology. Poppy Z. Brite wrote an illuminating introduction... and we will need it to see by down these dark halls wherein the boogeyman dwells. There are 18 stories about various boogeys ~ and four of the eighteen stories are reprints: the ones by Stephen King, Joe R. Lansdale, Ramsey
