It's time to spotlight the new horror releasing in June. I'm very excited about In the Valley of the Sun and Mapping the Interior. (I just finished reading In the Valley of the Sun, and I highly recommend it.)
I believe The Halloween Children (as well as Come To Dust) was originally a limited release so I'm happy to see to it become available. It looks like a perfect read to me.
The new Hunter Shea (Just Add Water) is based on those little sea monkey ads we used to see on the back of comics in the 80s. It sounds like a very fun read.

As always, let me know if there are any June horror books I have left off of the list. I have fallen behind on my horror spotlight posts over the last few months. I'm curious if anyone would like me to do a catch up post on the months that I missed.
I love that you highlight horror. Not many people read it. These look creepy.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jenny. I love doing these posts.
DeleteI've heard a few things about A Thousand Paper Birds; it looks like there are some great horror titles coming out soon.
ReplyDeleteA Thousand Paper Birds is completely new to me. I'd love to read it at some point and see what it's about.
DeleteSo thrilled to hear that you would recommend In the Valley of the Sun! I'm really looking forward to it, hoping I'll be able to fit it in soon :)

Yeeees. I'm having trouble reviewing it, though. Hopefully I will be able to post something this week.
DeleteJust Add water- that cracked me up. Reminds me of gremlins for some reason- wasn't one of the things that they couldn't get wet? In The Valley of the Sun sounds good, and Halloween Children- ooh I bet that's creepy! :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome To Nuke Jersey lol- love that title!!
Ha! Right? You couldn't get Gremlins wet or feed them after midnight. :)
