Well, the first year of I Read Horror YR is a wrap. So how did you do? I don't think I quite completed the category I set out for, but let me list the categories below and see how I stacked up...
- Winter theme, or winter appearance on the cover (snow, ice, etc.) - The Ascent, Ronald Malfi
- Ghosts or spirits - Come With Me, Ronald Malfi
- Psychological - Behind Her Eyes, Sarah Pinborough
- Monster or monsters
- A body of water (featured in story, on cover, or in title) - Cradle Lake, Ronald Malfi
- Really scary book cover
- Woman on cover - Mexican Gothic, Silvia Moreno-Garcia
- Written by a woman - The Witch's Trinity, Erika Mailman
- Written by a best-selling horror author -
- Written by an indie author - August's Eyes, Glenn Rolfe
- Historical horror - The Historian, Elizabeth Kostova
- Folk horror - Bone White, Ronald Malfi
Not bad at all! I was going for the Chilling level which is 12 books in a year. Only two shy so I'll take it.
