February 22 | Currently Reading

I had a much better reading week this past week. My family has decided to get well on me so things are getting back to normal.

If you missed my spotlight for Women in Horror Month, you can check that out here.

Books Read Last Week


The Giver by Lois Lowry

I finished reading Lois Lowry's The Giver. Unfortunately, I didn't like this book as much as I was supposed to.

I listened to this book on audio, and despite the really weird background music this thing had going on, it was a great audio. The book itself, though, left a lot to be desired.

4/10: Not My Thing

Shine Your Light On Me by Lee Thompson

Shine Your Light On Me by Lee Thompson

Lee Thompson released two books this month. What. Like I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, if he's writing, I'm reading. There was tough subject matter (I can live out all of my days without reading about kids being sexually abused) but my favorite Thompson books are always the supernatural ones.

7/10: Recommended Read

Books Currently Reading



I love these Fairyland books so much. I don't know why I'm reading this in the winter. Actually, I do know - my library had a copy available and I couldn't resist, but I'm a mood reader and these are definitely fall books.

I have a stack of books I keep saying I'm going to read next so hopefully I can actually get to some of those this week.

What about you? What are you reading this week? Be sure to let me know in the comments or leave me a link!

Women of Horror A - Z | Horror Spotlight

Horror Spotlight is a feature highlighting the newest in horror fiction. If you would like to connect with me or contribute to my Horror Spotlight posts, please feel free to drop me a comment or send me an email at bookdenblog(at)gmail(dot)com.

February is Women in Horror Month! This week I'm combining Women in Horror and my Horror Spotlight feature with an A - Z list featuring women who have published horror books within the last year. The first book you see listed is their latest release, but I'm also including some back titles because I really just want to share their work with you.

All photos including the author/editor photo will take you to the appropriate page on Goodreads.
