Top 10 Horror Novels of 2023 👻🩸

I think out of everything that I read in 2023 this is probably the book that I was most invested in this is the book that I had the most like visceral reaction to when I was reading those last couple of pages before it finally ended

I found the story to be like super enjoyable it's kind of one of those books that reminds me of like why I love reading horror so much

I picked it up not really knowing much about it and it ended up completely blowing me away it's dead relatives by Lucy mcnight Hardy I had this like weird feeling that it was like written for someone like me it had everything that I really enjoy in horror

it just was a completely solid horror novel I enjoyed the creepiness of it so much and the lore of the house and the history of the things that had happened there and all that sort of thing

this was fantastic this really lived up to my expectations of it based on the reviews that I had seen of it

it had the social commentary it had the actual horror it had incredible body horror it had an incredible message to it had characters that you could really get behind and want them to you know win the good fight it just had like everything it was just a perfect story

this really exceeded my expectations I didn't really know anything about David Mitchell's writing style I didn't really know anything about the actual story of it there was something strange about the writing that just really resonated with me in such a way that it made me kind of feel nostalgic

it was just such an entertaining read it's only like 120 Pages or so and it always really impresses me when I go back and I read certain horror classics

it ended up being the last book that I read in 2023 and I ended up like binging through this like a few days before the end of the year because I enjoyed it so much and I really appreciated and understood what people said when they compare Christy Logan's writing style to like Shirley Jackson and Angela Carter

I am so glad that I did because I loved this was an absolute binge read for me
