Horror Reviewers


An Easy Guide to Locating Horror Reviews Without Losing Your Mind

Are you a reader looking for scary book recommendations? Are you an author needing some reviews but money is tight and you can't afford a PR team? Well, look no further than this list right here. These are the people you need to know. They live and breathe horror and LOVE to talk about it all over the internet.

Please know that this list is a work in progress. I will be adding more names and social media links as they are submitted. If you find an active blog/booktube/bookstagrammer that reviews horror fiction regularly (at least 50% horror fiction) please let me know with a link to the blog/website in the comments. My end game is to include every active horror fiction reviewer in our community but I cannot do this without your help. Feel free to share this post but please credit me as the originator of the list. I will also be checking it every month or so to remove inactive blogs and those who have switched their focus from horror to other genres. If you do not review at least one true horror novel a month you will be removed from the list. If I have to dig for pages to find a horror review you will not be put on the list. If you decide in the future to cover horror fiction regularly and want to be put back on the list please leave a comment. 

Readers: If you do not want to be included here please let me know in the comments. If you'd like to be on the list please leave your social media links in the comments. Also let me know which category you prefer to be listed under. I had to guess on a few of you with multiple platforms. If you spot an error please let me know in the comments. Please do not sign up if you only read horror during October.

Authors: These are all active reader/reviewers but some may be "booked up" with tbr piles at the moment. You will have to review their individual review policies to see if they're currently accepting books to review.

If you discover a reviewer on this list is charging for reviews please contact me ASAP and they will be removed. This list is comprised of people who love the genre, not for those trying to make a buck off of reading.

It's such a great time to be a horror fiction fan, right?! If you haven't ventured over to Twitter, Booktube or Instagram or even the vast land of blogging, what the heck are you waiting for? All of these communities add so much enthusiasm and fun to the horror world. Now kiss your free time goodbye and start clicking!

    This is outstanding, Laurie. You rock! The only thing that's notably absent to me is HorrorTalk. If you want it, this is their staff page with all their reviewer contacts on it: https://www.horrortalk.com/staff/staff/

    Cheers!

    Much thanks from all of us who are too damned lazy to do this ourselves.

Hottest Horror Books of the Summer

Image
So there was a thing on Goodreads that made me feel a little excluded. This thing was hard to avoid seeing because they placed a big, ugly banner atop the website that was hard to miss. This thing was a link to their list of the Hottest Books of Summer. This list was lukewarm for me, at best, because it excluded many genres and seemed a wee bit uninspired. I put out a snarky little tweet on Twitter to voice my frustration and Toni the Reader agreed that we should create our own epic list of books that showcased our horror love so here we are!
The Hottest Books of Summer?! Says who? There is no horror! 👿 Not a single one. 💔 Horror Peeps should we create one?https://t.co/KmFutLiQIO via @goodreads — barksbknonsense (@barksbknonsense) June 22, 2018
Well. the horror people came through! A giant thanks go out to the best read horror readers in the Twitterverse for making it possible to create this list that will enable us to spend all of our money and have a summer filled with horrorific …

A LIttle Life by Hanya Yanagihara
Fiction, Unabridged Audiobook  32+ Hours
BUY
When four classmates from a small Massachusetts college move to New York to make their way, they're broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition. There is kind, handsome Willem, an aspiring actor; JB, a quick-witted, sometimes cruel Brooklyn-born painter seeking entry to the art world; Malcolm, a frustrated architect at a prominent firm; and withdrawn, brilliant, enigmatic Jude, who serves as their center of gravity. Over the decades, their relationships deepen and darken, tinged by addiction, success, and pride. Yet their greatest challenge, each comes to realize, is Jude himself, by midlife a terrifyingly talented litigator yet an increasingly broken man, his mind and body scarred by an unspeakable childhood, and haunted by what he fears is a degree of trauma that he’ll not only be unable to overcome—but that will define his life forever.
If you’re feeling a little too thrilled with yo…
