Bill Muganda Hey guys, Bill Khaemba from Kenya.... I literally wanted a group that offers good horrific psychological-thriller and just messed up books... I myself may not (maybe I am) be messed up but I love finding out and reading about fictional characters that are bad-shit crazy upstairs.

Some of the books that offer such that I have read are The Ruins The Shining Gerald's Game I really love to get scared shitless by a book so throw some at me..... thanks :)

Rebecca Amiss (rebeccaamiss) | 216 comments Welcome, Bill!

If you haven't read Misery by Stephen King, I highly recommend that. Also Chevy Stevens is a great writer as well. She's more psychological thriller than horror though.

Peter J. | 2 comments Peter J Larrivee

Greetings,

I'm Peter J Larrivee, an Indie author from Rhode Island. I have one debut novel published, and one episodic novella that I am publishing online, both within the horror/weird fiction genre.
My novel is called Revenant, and the novella is called Legend Haunted The first four chapters are already online, and the fifth should be out by e end of April.

I love a good horror story, one that doesn't just provide gore and bloodshed, but creates real tension and makes you think twice about turning off the lights at night.

Being a Rhode Island native, there's a lot of H.P. Lovecraft influence in my work, and I love finding similar stories that border on the weird fiction frontier.

C | 2 comments Hi, everyone. My name is Cecilia. I am a college English professor who reads for a living. I prefer reading to writing, for now, but do enjoy journaling. My favorite genre is psychological thrillers and feminist horror, both books and movies. One of my most recent favorites is Mind of Winter . Looking forward to seeing what interests this group.

Dennise Garcia | 2 comments Hello, everyone! My name is Dennise and I am a junior college student who is studying English Literature. I actually joined months ago but due to school and all, I forgot to participate..

Anyways, about me, I am 19 years old and I started reading horror in eleventh grade. I remember seeing a Stephen King novel in the school library and thinking, "Eh, it's probably not that good." I checked it out, read it, scared the crap out of me, and I went on to read all the novels I could find by him. Years later, I still love the genre but I haven't had any time to read any horror books. (Sadly, lit majors don't get to read what they want). Hopefully, this summer will be filled with a lot of reading.

I'm excited to see what adventures this group holds for me!

Matthew Allred | 2 comments I have no idea what I'm doing here, haha. This is my first time getting into Goodreads groups, but I've heard they are really good for self-published authors. I'm interested in getting to know people in the community, but I don't know where to start.

I've written a few novels, both under my name and as a ghost writer. Here are two of them, both horror. Any help in getting to know how to make connections on here would be great.

Tomorrow I Will Kill Again (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...)
Blocks of Color (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...)

I've gotten some very polarized reviews for Tomorrow I Will Kill Again. :)

S.J. Romero (sjromero) | 6 comments Hi all! My name is s.j. romero and I've written a horror story set in Hell. I enjoy horror, although not CRAZY graphic. More scary than gory, but I do find some dark stuff to be interesting. Looking forward to browsing and reading reviews to help me find my next read. Thanks in advance!

Hello! It's so nice to meet everyone!
I absolutely adore Stephen King, he's the inspiration behind my writing! I love to write horror/thriller as well though I like to add psychological twists to it like I did in my debut novel Dead by Morning.

I love to watch horror movies as well, though lately I'll admit they've been a bit disappointing. Nevertheless, I'm a horror addict through and through!
