Ladies Of Horror Fiction: Day 3, 4 & 5

Hi everyone. Here I am already falling behind in my new daily posting ritual. So surprising, haha.

I'm combining days 3, 4 and 5 in this post so you can see what I'm showcasing in case you're not on Twitter or Instagram and want a peek. You can look up the #LadiesOfHorrorFiction hashtag at either place to find everyone's posts and grab some recommendations.

Day 3: Jewelry


I don’t wear a lot of jewelry because I have a bad habit of spending my money on books and bookish things instead. I m sure some of you can relate. If you look closely you can spy some rings on her fingers . . .

I bought this book sooo long ago and didn’t realize it was book #4 of the Sonja Blue series. I read book #1 a million years ago and remember nothing. Have you read this series? And, if so, do I need to go back and read books 1-3 to make sense of this one? Please tell me no! Blech. This is why I dislike series!! What are your thoughts on them?

Day 4: Grave


I plucked another book from my long suffering #tbrpile for this one. I have so many books I’ve yet to read and it makes me feel a little guilty when I see them all patiently waiting for their turn as I read another brand new ARC instead. Such cruelty! Do you ever feel the guilt when looking at your TBR piles? This is a book about gypsies and curses and it’s another that has mixed reviews so that means I cannot wait to give it a go!

Day 5: Favorite Color


What’s your favorite color? I love dirty pinks and went with the dusky pinks in this cover. I just love the contrast of the dirty pretty against the glare of that knife.  This is another from the frightfully large tbrpile that I need to read soon. It’s about a descent into into madness. Have you read this author? None of my GR friends have reviewed it so I’m very curious.


We now have 335 posts for our tag!! So many recommendations!

    I feel guilty all the time when I think about the books waiting on the tbr! I want to read everything next! I'd love to be following the posts on Twitter but most days I end up too busy to even get to Twitter!

    I always feel guilty about books - too many on the shelf, too many arcs, too many library books - just pick one :)

    My unread books always make me feel a bit guilty, too. But at least I'm giving them a good home while they wait. ;D The cover of Grave Intent is awesome. Makes me want to give it a try.

Got My Eye On (8)

I saw a post over at  Mailbox Monday  that was encouraging readers to share their best finds of the week via their  Books That Caught Our Eye  posts.

Tackling the TBR List in 2018: Time to Vote!

Image
I tried this meme last year and though it was incredibly fun I never revisited it because I spent the rest of the year breaking my promises to myself and reading ARC's and review copies instead of my TBR pile.I hope to change it this year and read at least one book a month from the TBR stacks. Michelle @  Because Reading  created and hosts the meme. Here they are, three actual books randomly plucked from one of my piles. Perfect for the Valentines season, right?!  Please feel free to let me know if any of these are not worth reading! I am determined to learn how to DNF properly. The Books              I actually picked these out for a Twitter post in January and meant to do the meme then because the Twitter-verse wasn't interested in my tbr pile. I did have one vote for Blood Rubies & In Cold Blood.  Click Cover for More About the Books             ...
