I CANNOT BELIEVE IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO GET TO THIS ONE. A KJK collection about GHOSTS?! Are you KIDDING?! Of course, I absolutely loved this one! (1/4)

Happy, happy pub day to The Brood by Rebecca Baum! www.ericarobynreads.com/the-brood-by...

Where The Soul Goes by Katherine Silva is a story that gave me such an intense book-hangover that a full month after finishing it, I'm sitting down for the who-knows-what-number of time to try to write up my review, determined to get something down this time. (1/3)

The Brood by Rebecca Baum is a tale that will make your skin crawl in more ways than one… Body horror fans, you have to check out The Brood. Ugh, I’m itchy and queasy just thinking about this tale (in the best way)! What a wild and intense ride this was! (1/2)

Hello, if you'd like to read and/or review my books, that would be really cool of you. You want to be really cool, don't you? I write all kinds of horror featuring strong women, their loyal animal companions, and storylines that get under your skin. See 👇 #booksky www.goodreads.com/author/list/...

Dark Worlds We Wander by Kristin Kirby is a collection of fourteen short stories and one novella that all center around the theme of survival in one way or another. From post-apocalyptic scenes to things like something odd in a dryer and something that’s up with some tattoos... (1/3)

Nothing Is Real by Kevin J. Kennedy is this author’s first non-horror tale that veers into some very dark existential territory. (1/4)

Song Dogs by Brennan LaFaro is another intense page-turner in the amazing Buzzard’s Edge Saga! Within these pages, readers will find more terrifying monsters, more nerve-racking shootouts, and some major character growth! (1/2)

In Kevin J. Kennedy Presents Horror Tales From Ireland, elements of death and loss are heavy. Covering such a wide range in just a few tales, this collection will leave you in a state of mourning. (1/2)

Strange New Moons edited by Stephen Kozeniewski & Kayleigh Dobbs is a collection of werewolf tales where every tale is an adventure and full of the unexpected! (1/3)

You could've at least warned me before tagging me in a review that's the equivalent of a direct hit from a carebear stare! Seriously though, thank you so much! 😭 This book means a lot to me, so it's extra special when people enjoy it 💚

Nothingland by @katsilvaauthor.bsky.social is a grief horror tale of a woman and her quest for revenge and the heavy despair that hits time and time again. (1/3)

Bottling His Ghosts by @pippinacious.bsky.social is an emotional journey that captures the pain of watching someone you love disappear into their bottles of alcohol & the determination to bring them back. Plus, there are some seriously terrifying ghosts! www.ericarobynreads.com/bottling-his...

It's been ten days since BOTTLING HIS GHOSTS' release and it's reached two dozen ratings on Goodreads! I can't express my gratitude enough to the readers who take the time to share their opinions. Word of mouth is indie book lifeblood! #booksky www.goodreads.com/book/show/23...

Still can't believe BHG is out in the world! Have you grabbed your copy yet? #booksky 📚👀 📚🩸

Portland, ME Friends! I'll be in town on 7/21 for work and don't have any afternoon/dinner plans. I'd love to meet up if anyone is free! :)

A Bleak Remedy by D.S. LaLonde (@glawackus.bsky.social) is a gripping exploration of immortality, morality & the horrifying price of survival. At its core, it’s a vampire tale, but not the kind you’re used to! And it’s not just the creatures that lurk in the shadows... (1/3)

Some short stories manage to pack more tension and emotion into a few pages than some full-length novels, and Ushers by Joe Hill does exactly that. From the first page, I was drawn into this wild tale that explores survival and suspicion. (1/2)

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know how much I adore Stephen Kozeniewski’s work... So this interview was seriously overdue! (1/3) @kozeniewski.bsky.social

A Graveside Gallery: Tales of Ghosts and Dark Matters by Eric J. Guignard is not a light read, nor does it pretend to be. This short story collection plunges headfirst into some of the darkest corners of human experience, unflinchingly portraying grief, trauma, cruelty & the raw edges of humanity.

If one of the LOONEY! characters came to life for a day… what would @gavindillinger.bsky.social do? “I don’t trust any of the characters in this book. They’re all unstable, and some are also evil.” Dive into this wild interview Gavin — if you dare! www.ericarobynreads.com/interview-wi...

Sooooo very behind on everything right now. Thank you all for your extra patience, as always. <3 Our poor little dude has had back-to-back ear infections since December 2nd (tube surgery coming soon!). Then recently, he had croup followed by hand, foot, and mouth... Poor kid can't catch a break!

Happy belated pub day to @catherinemccarthy.bsky.social and Death of a Clown (5/27)! Haven't picked this up yet? Now's your chance!! www.ericarobynreads.com/death-of-a-c...

New Hampshire!! Time to call Governor Ayotte to demand she veto the deeply unpopular book banning HB324. Remind her that only 39 people have spoken in favor of it, while more than 1300 opposed it. The phone number is 603-271-2121. www.wmur.com/article/nh-s...

Is anyone else getting repeated requests after being put on this list? I emailed noting that I was on there twice & that the info was not correct. Their reply was to "opt for Business Plus plan/ Business Pro plan to get placement higher in the list." 😑 bloggers.feedspot.com/horror_book_...

Black Out The Stars by Christopher Bond is a dark and twisted tale of generational horrors, spilling from one old man’s lips as fast as the water drains from the pond on his property. Content Warnings: death of a parent, animal death, child abuse, domestic violence, and more. (1/3)

Attn: #Booksky! Death of A Clown has everything: darkness, humor, great writing, wonderful scene-setting and emotions that are all over the map. I thought it was extraordinary and perhaps you will too? Full review at link below: www.facebook.com/CharsHorrorC... @catherinemccarthy.bsky.social

Everybody Is in the Place by Emma J. Gibbon is a nightmare wrapped in neon light. In this tale, we follow two characters riding the high of an acid trip while they enter a fairground for an evening of fun (or at least what they thought would be fun). (1/2) @emmajgibbon.bsky.social

Spider to the Fly by J.H. Markert is SO ADDICTING. Right from the first few pages, you just know this story is going to get your skin crawling. Content Warnings: Child abuse, mental illness, suicide, torture & more. (1/3)

The first installment of Kevin J. Kennedy Presents Horror Tales from Scotland was intense, but in Horror Tales from Scotland II, the authors take things to an entirely new level. (1/3)

The Invisible by Steve Stred is a jumpy and patchwork tale of a man struggling with the journey that he is on.  Anything Steve writes, I’m here for. This book was so brutally twisted. After reading, I was absolutely gutted.   (1/2)

The Old Man and His River by Matt Wildasin is a tale about a man searching for one last big catch, but who finds so much more out there on the river. (1/3) @mattwildasin.bsky.social

Below by Kev Harrison is a story of sheer determination in the face of the impossible. Every step of the way, this crew faces more and more horrific things, all while underground in an old mine. (1/2)
