What We Harvest: Reinventing Zombie Horror
What We Harvest wasn’t what I thought it would be. I don’t mean that in a bad way. I just hadn’t expected a zombie story. The synopsis suggested creeping slime.

The Nothing That Is: The Scariest Book I’ve Read
The Nothing That Is sits on the list of books I’ve reviewed that scared me. Only certain scenes in The Twisted Ones, The Night Will Find Us, and some Fazbear Frights moments caused similar reactions in recent memory. Since I finished listening to The Magnus Archives, it takes a lot.
The Twisted Ones: Slow-Burn Nightmare
I wish I had more nice things to say about The Twisted Ones. Given how impressed I was with The Hollow Places, I expected another creative cosmic horror with a breezy pace. And while I will ultimately have several nice things to say about the book, it’s a step down in quality.
40+: Short, Clever, and Flawed
40+ is a novella with a powerful hook but is hampered by a few things, including how short it is. It would be easy to imagine it expanded into a larger novel, detailing both the world as it was and how the change affected it.
Fazbear Frights Review: Book #12: Felix the Shark
We’ve arrived at the final Fazbear Frights book. This digital-only (at least at the time of writing) novella ends our little odyssey into the series, with only the police bonus stuff to explore.
The Night Will Find Us: Slowly Keeps Improving
My initial interest in reading The Night Will Find Us was because it appeared to be a classic “friends camping” horror story with a heap of cosmic horror on top. And I got what I wanted. Those two things are a big part of the story.
Wilder Girls: A Strong Story Lacking Something
Wilder Girls is missing several things. The book has a lot of truly impressive aspects to it, and a heck of a hook—but doesn’t play with its toys nearly enough.

(A blast from the past. This peculiar series was both very in step with the popular books of the time and yet unlike them. If you haven’t read it, here’s an old review of the first book. – Brandon Scott) Originally Published: September 16th, 2019 Miss Peregrine’s: A Peculiar Hit Of A Book My initial…
The Between: A Cool Premise Dragged Down
The Between is a novel of interesting ideas, but sloppy execution.

Fazbear Frights Review: Book #11: Prankster
Well, it took almost six months, but we’re to the final canonical Fazbear Frights book. The only one left is the odd Felix the Shark book, which won’t be out until next year. So, in the meantime, let’s look over Prankster.
The Hollow Places: Breezy Lovecraftian Horror
I’d not read anything by T. Kingfisher before this novel, but given the grace of the prose, The Hollow Places will not be the last. She’s shown her sureness within both this subgenre and in the art of simply telling a good story.
