Have you added @brennanlafaro.bsky.social's THE DENIZENS to your Goodreads TBR yet? If not... we'd love it if you would :) 🦇📚🧟‍♂️

Jessica Fletcher called a dog to the stand as witness to a murder literally all your arguments are invalid.

SST has the best special editions. No notes.

It feels like a win whenever I see a horror author make the New York Times bestseller list but this? This is everything. This is a victory. Take your lap RACHEL HARRISON.

Again, I'm happy to compare and contrast DC's extreme corporate response to Felker-Martin's speech while tapping the stack of Neil Gainman backlist titles still on the shelves despite his sounding off about the credible allegations of sexual assault against him.

Home is where the horror is... 😈 PLAY NICE by @rachelharrison.bsky.social is out in the UK today! In this devilishly clever take on the haunted house novel, a woman must confront the demons of her past when she attempts to fix up her childhood home. Out now! tinyurl.com/4kjjhchh 💜

These two door stoppers came home with me today from work like the way, I must’ve walked in at the exact right time today because I would’ve thrown elbows for both of them. 😭❤️

Happy release day to Where the Soul goes by @katsilvaauthor.bsky.social, published by @nwreader.bsky.social! So honored to have been its editor. It’s fantastic. Grab now where books are sold, it’s so good!! And there is a launch party (Tues) on YouTube at 8p EST. #horror #books #foodish

Ready for my book tour to begin tonight at An Unlikely Story in Plainville, MA! Event at 7 pm. I’ll be there with Chris Golden. Wear all black if you can. 🖤

I cannot stress enough how much I love this book. Without any spoilers I just absolutely think you need this book . adding it to a shelf on my heart marked “books that fundamentally changed me. “

And another release today that is vital! And I devour short stories, it's like I have a taste for them.

Happy release day can't wait to celebrate you later! I don't know how to describe this other than it made me feel like I was unaware of time it put me just outside of reality while pointing fingers into the wounds of our reality. Just wonderful, as always.

I'm back from vacay with a massive post. 5 reviews in the Sept 2025 issue of @ala-booklist.bsky.social. Great reads by @brianmcwriter.bsky.social. @carsonfaust.bsky.social, @jimchines.com, A. Rushby, and @johnhornor.bsky.social. raforall.blogspot.com/2025/09/what...

New from me at @fangoria.bsky.social: I interviewed @ericlarocca.bsky.social about BURNT SPARROW, transgressive fiction, and launching his first horror epic. www.fangoria.com/we-are-alway...

You know how everyone says they have like a book crush like a crush on a character from a book? Whenever somebody’s asked that question I’ve never really had an answer because I don’t feel like I’ve ever had one before. I certainly do now. Clio Louise Barnes break my neck.

Listen. I just wrote two paragraphs at the end of chapter 10 of reading Play Nice by @rachelharrison.bsky.social and when I tell you this book is spectacular and special, I mean it with my whole chest. It's dangerously sharp, and cutting with such precision I am beyond floored. And I'm only just in.

Tonight!!

Also send good thoughts my migraine has made my entire face numb and we have an event in store tonight & I move my only kiddo into his college dorm tomorrow. So if you see me and I seem A loopy (migraine) and B cry don't worry about it!!!

I cannot tell you how much I love love LOVED this book, one of my favorites this year the ebooks on sale right now. It's like if John Irving wrote Little Miss Sunshine it deals with heavy stuff, but in a way that is so funny and heartening. www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-road-t...

Beach body tips: eat bug

man, wow. who'd have ever guessed. vampires go everywhere, yeah? so do Blackfeet:

Holy shit!!!! When I tell you I’ve already been selling this book like crazy and then Obama comes out as a fellow SGJ fan, we love to see it.

I don't know when we are going to get to the point where we are loudly saying ALL OF US or NONE of us. And I LIVED in Cali and still consider it *home* in so many ways & I know this coward is putting on a tiger suit but it's paper mache and we will rip it up every time. Our people deserve better.

So so so happy and lucky to have this happening at our store, black flame is incredible. Like truly worked for me on so many levels.

Exactly this.

Next on the September 2025 LibraryReads Top 10 list is WHY I LOVE HORROR: ESSAYS ON HORROR LITERATURE by @raforall.bsky.social! @simonandschuster.bsky.social

At the end of the world, I was here with you. No place I would rather have been. @bookmonstergeorge.bsky.social @cgolden.bsky.social @paultremblay.bsky.social @rioyouers.bsky.social

A literal steal

What success you fucking chud? "It’s not like I say to Bobby, ‘Let’s talk about this’ while we’re playing cards or having fun or having dinner. I’m not going to pick his brain to find out exactly which of those things are true." The whitest of male privilege there could be. Fucking wanker.

Had the time of my life. Thank you @doylestownbookshop.bsky.social for this great event! @paultremblay.bsky.social the only person who talks about Stephen Graham Jones as much as I do(❤️) @johnlangan.bsky.social who failed one of the dudes who was in The Blair Witch project. An icon honestly.

For real cried on the drive home (and not just because of the traffic). I will miss you all so desperately until I see you again. So thankful for the friendships, and none more than yours Peg. I love you all, I love you all, I love you all.

I hope everyone takes a moment today to wish @emilyhughes.bsky.social a very happy birthday. Wouldn’t be as good of a world without you in it. ❤️❤️❤️

I was talking to someone last night saying I feel a way about saying this is my favorite @ericlarocca.bsky.social book but I really think it is (so far) and if you haven't read it the 50% sale is a great time www.barnesandnoble.com/w/at-dark-i-...

Black Flame.Erotic, vulnerable and visceral this is easily one of my fav reads of the year. Like a cigarette burn there were flashes through the story of where it was going & I was mesmerised the entire time. There were images in this story that will haunt me for a long time to come as they should.

Thank you to @hauntedbydeadlines.bsky.social for this incredible write up of Broken Dolls. And to be in the same company as @paultremblay.bsky.social @jwocker.bsky.social is such an honor. hauntedbydeadlines.com/2025/08/15/t...

I am one of the 14 authors who chose to leave the Polari Prize, and I find myself frustrated and saddened at the way this entire story has been represented. 1/

It has been an incredibly hectic few months for me, so much going on so I chose to love myself and start Black Flame - like I'm not done yet but its so brutal and so vulnerable and I did a wince gag while driving (delightful!!!) I love this book.

hated it. That director just not for me. Shew.

Seated for weapons. Wish me luck 😂

Immeasurably proud, shout it from the rooftops.

Couldn't sleep last night because of migraine pain, then at six am I heard the jays screaming and the crows screaming. Like. REALLY loud. at 7 let the dog out only to see my squirrel friend on the deck going "Oh dear" with her little hands fretting over the body of one of my bluejays.

Not only am I so lucky to get to sit and talk with some of my absolute favorite authors. I also get to do it with an incredible group of people who are so thoughtful smart and just the coolest. Love you all.

One of my favorite ways to be a helpful menace is to request books at the library!

This!!

Hey, one of my favorite collections from @sgj.bsky.social is on sale today! To celebrate, I've posted a few redemption codes in the reply to this post. Happy reading!

I’ve thought this for over a decade. So well said. Also, remembering all of my friends who decided to look down on me/say horrible things about mothering once I had a kid because their idea of feminism doesn’t include motherhood. Wild times.

I'm stunned this morning to see TEENAGE GIRLS CAN BE DEMONS got a STARRED REVIEW in Library Journal 🤩 With shout-outs to brand new stories "The Long Flesh of the Law" and "Magical Girls Child Crusader Squad" + Benny Rose himself 😈 out September 16 from Titan! www.libraryjournal.com/review/teena...

Probably a dumb question but I was looking at upcoming releases and just wondering if there's a way to figure out the book cover artist bc Im finding some that look like AI and even if they're not like--ya'll let's not be normalizing AI looking crap either.
