Here are some of the amazing horror books I’ve been reading lately! And you should definitely read them on Halloween😉
Books listed:
🥀 All These Sunken Souls edited by Circe Moskowitz
🥀 Dark Corner by Brandon Massey
🥀 The Forest Demands Its Due by Kosoko Jackson
🥀 Our Share of Night by Mariana Enriquez
🥀 Skin Thief by Suzan Palumbo
🥀 Never Whistle at Night edited by Shane Hawk and Theodore Van Alst Jr.
What’s the best horror book you’ve read so far this spooky season?👀 Comment and let me know!
This is a readathon taking place from November 1-30th, hosted by me and my wonderful co-host ReadLexRead on instagram, where we read gothic books all month!
There are 12 reading prompts, 5 activity prompts, and 2 group books (one chosen by me, and one chosen by my co-host, ReadLexRead over on Instagram)!
The only rule for the readathon is that all books must be gothic! And you can, of course, double up on prompts!
Prompts: read a gothic book by an author of color, read a gothic book featuring vampires, a gothic horror or thriller, a gothic book with queer representation, a southern gothic book, read a gothic classic OR a retelling of a gothic classic, a gothic book set in an isolated location, a gothic book featuring ghosts, a book with gothic AND dark academia vibes, a gothic romance, a gothic book set in a non-European setting, and a gothic book featuring a character’s descent into madness.
Activity prompts: post the books you’ll be reading for the readathon, create a photo with gothic vibes, watch a form of gothic media (movie, tv show, YouTube video, things like that), recommend some books for the readathon, read in a gothic atmosphere (maybe light some candles, put on some gothic music, things like that)
Group Books: Darknesses by Lachelle Seville and House of Hunger by Alexis Henderson
For book recommendations and to keep track of your reading, the Storygraph challenge is linked in my linktree on my channel!
Also I have a whole YouTube video on my channel dedicated to gothic books, both recommendations and books that I want to read soon, so check that out if you want ideas for what you want to read!
And if you post any content for the readathon make sure to tag me because we want to see all of y’all’s TBRs, activity challenges, wrap ups, and everything else!
We hope you join us this November for some gothic fun🥰🖤
Drop a Black heart emoji in the comments if you’re joining!🖤 And let us know what books you plan on reading OR give us a gothic book recommendation!
#readathonannouncement #booktube #gothic #gothicbooks #Gothicathon
It is the last day of the photo challenge and my personal favorite prompt! I couldn’t choose just one fave vampire! (Technically Akasha is my all time fave, but I couldn’t leave out my Claudia and Louis!)
I recommended Dark Corner to Akasha solely because, SPOILER ALERT, the vampires kill almost everybody in that book and she would absolutely love the carnage🤭😂
I recommended I Feed Her to the Beast and the Beast Is Me to Claudia because she would LOVE watching a young Black girl claim her power!
And I Louis got Darknesses because it is a vampire romance and you know that boy is a hopeless romantic (very much to his detriment😅)
🩸Who’s your favorite Black vampire and what’s one book you’d recommend to them?🩸
Thank you so much to anyone who participated in this photo challenge, you have my eternal love🫶🏽🖤 I hope it was fun!
#booktube #blackbooktuber #blackbooks #bookrecommendations #BlackVampires #vampires
My favorite thriller ever is definitely Ace of Spades by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé! The hype is well deserved for this one!
📚 What’s your favorite thriller or mystery book by a Black author? Lemme know in the comments!
#AceOfSpades #thrillerbooks #blackbooktuber #spookyseason #bookrecommendations
I own very few physical books, so this is all I got😅 I definitely wish I had some purple or something, but we’re going with!
I have read and loved My Soul to Keep, Darknesses, and All These Sunken Souls! A Dance for the Dead is still on my TBR!
📚 What’s your favorite book with a Halloween color on the cover?
(For more information on the readathon watch the announcement video on my channel!)
I’ll go even further and post my favorite book period, which is a Black horror book😉 The Good House by Tananarive Due!
If you’ve ever talked to me for longer than 15 minutes, then I have most likely recommended this book to you already😂 But lemme recommend it again!
🖤Synopsis🖤
Working to rebuild her law practice after her son commits suicide, Angela Toussaint journeys to the family home where the suicide took place, hoping for answers, and discovers an invisible, evil force that is driving locals to acts of violence.
What’s your favorite Black horror or paranormal book?? Let me know in the comments!

My favorite prompt is definitely Claudia’s prompt: read a book with blood on the cover!🩸
Both of the group books for the readathon fit this prompt! I Feed Her to the Beast and the Beast Is Me by Jamison Shea and Sign of the Slayer by Sharina Harris! Plus You’re Not Supposed to Die Tonight by Kalynn Bayron fits too!
Do you have any more recs for books with blood on the cover??👀
#booktube #blackbooktuber #blackbooks #spookybooks #spookyseason #bookrecommendations
If you know me then you know that I haven’t shut up about Tananarive Due since I first read her in 2021! Horror has always been my favorite genre, so to read a Black woman writing horror and doing it to ✨perfection✨ makes me so happy🥰
These are all the physical books I own by her! I’ve read all except for Blood Colony and Joplin’s Ghost! I’ve also read Ghost Summer and The Between as ebooks. And lemme just say, Tananarive Due never disappoints!🙌🏽 I love that lady real bad🫶🏽
Have you read any Tananarive Due before? Who’s your favorite Black author? Lemme know in the comments!
#booktube #blackbooktuber #blackbooks #TananariveDue #blackauthors #horrorbooks #readathon
Today is the start of the 7 day photo challenge! Today’s prompt is to post your readathon TBR😍 And I am so very excited for all these books!
Here’s what prompts they fit:
🩸There’s No Way I’d Die First: Claudia, Louis, Kendra
🩸 The Gilda Stories: Vampire in Brooklyn, Claudia, Tara
🩸 House of Cotton: Akasha, Marcel
🩸 The Year of the Witching: The Invitation, Claudia (I love how many blood covers I have lmao)
🩸 Debate and Decadence: The Invitation, Tara
🩸 Shadow Coven: Laurent, Vampire in Brooklyn
🩸 Off-Time Jive: Laurent, Kendra, Louis
🩸 Fang Gang: Vampire in Brooklyn, Claudia
As you can see I’m doing a lot of the prompts multiple times because I love them so much that I can’t just do them once!🥰
Have you read any of these? What’s on your TBR for the readathon?👀 Lemme know in the comments!

In this video i talk about 20+ gothic books that you should add to your TBR! Some that I have read & loved, and some that are on my TBR! We have gothic horror, gothic fantasy, and gothic romance. And I also talk about gothic shows & movies that I enjoyed!🖤 If you’re like me and are utterly obsessed with the Interview With the Vampire show, these books match that vibe😉

If you know me, then you know that Tananarive Due is my favorite author of all time, so I could not wait to read her newest short story collection and I really enjoyed it! I loved that so many of the stories connected to her previous books! We get to revisit Gracetown & a few other stories from Ghost Summer and read a story that was related to her graphic novel, The Keeper. It was exciting to revisit those stories! I also enjoyed the mention of the reformatory from Tananarive Due’s upcoming novel👀
Some of my favorite stories were The Biographer, Haint in the Window, Rumpus Room, and Migration! I will say that several of the stories felt incomplete to me. I think some of the stories should’ve been longer and could’ve had a more fleshed out ending, but overall I really enjoyed this collection! Tananarive Due never disappoints!
Story ratings:
* The Wishing Pool: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
* Haint in the Window: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨
* Incident at Bear Creek Lodge: ⭐️⭐️⭐️✨
* Thursday-Night Shift: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
* Last Stop on Route 9: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
* Suppertime: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
* Rumpus Room: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
* Migration: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
* Caretaker: ⭐️⭐️✨
* One Day Only: ⭐️⭐️✨
* Attachment Disorder: ⭐️✨
* Ghost Ship: ⭐️⭐️
* Shopping Day: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Average rating: 3.9 stars! (For an overall rating of 4 stars!)

There’s no way I’m reading 7 books in 7 days, but why be realistic when you can be delusional??☺️
I won’t be able to run my own fundraiser, but I’ll be reading along and showing love to books with trans rep or by trans authors!
For more information on this readathon, watch the announcement video & find out ways to participate and support: youtu.be/_nwqM6EX-NQ
Also, if you are able to donate, I ask that you please consider donating to an organization for Black & brown trans people. They are often forgotten and disregarded, so keep them in mind when supporting all trans people❤️
Book: She is a Haunting by Trang Tranh Tran
This is a sapphic, gothic, haunted house horror book set in Vietnam!
