      Thanks, Tammy. You can participate whenever you have time. I had to do most of my pics in July in order to participate because I knew I'd get busy and flake out.

    I was hoping you would have recommendations. I haven't read horror in so long that I don't know of many authors period never mind women.

    I'll have to see if I have anything that's considered horror on my shelf. I'll probably only get one book in but it's more than I would have lol

      I'm reading Jac Jemc's THE GRIP OF IT right now. It's a haunted house tale dripping in atmosphere. I'm loving it so far.

      I haven't looked into it but while doing my Blog Name in books tag I think The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff & maybe Sunshine by Robin McKinley (that would be a re-read and it's vampires) would work & I have them right on my shelf!

Horror Film Friday Returns with The Other Side of the Door

If you're new here, please know that my film reviews are crap and never to be taken seriously because I do not take notes and my memory is an unreliable thing but if you're okay with that, well, here's another! click on pic to rent/buy it yourownself Laurie from The Walking Dead stars as a suicidal, grieving mom. A terrible accident forced her to make a terrible choice that left her young son dead and she is not coping well. Still-sexy Jeremy Sisto plays the dad who seems to be coping with the death of their little boy by becoming a workaholic. He scours India looking for antiques that he resells for loads of money.

Review: Flowers for the Sea by Zin E. Rocklyn

Image
Go get yourself this book! It's out today. Flowers for the Sea by Zin E. Rocklyn Published October 19, 2021 Dark Fiction   |   Goodreads   |   Amazon   |  Bookshop Flowers for the Sea is a dark, dazzling debut novella that reads like Rosemary's Baby by way of Octavia E. Butler. We are a people who do not forget. Survivors from a flooded kingdom struggle alone on an ark. Resources are scant, and ravenous beasts circle. Their fangs are sharp. Among the refugees is Iraxi: ostracized, despised, and a commoner who refused a prince, she’s pregnant with a child that might be more than human. Her fate may be darker and more powerful than she can imagine. Zin E. Rocklyn’s extraordinary debut is a lush, gothic fantasy about the prices we pay and the vengeance we seek. My 2 Cents For Free! If you follow the bookish people on social media, I bet you’ve seen people praising this book here, there, and everywhere. There’s a reason fo...
