Laurie  (barksbooks) (barklesswagmore) | 1471 comments Hey, everyone. It’s time to start thinking about our April Group Read. Please nominate any *horror novel you'd love the group to read that hasn't been a HA read in the last year. A list of our previous reads can be found here. There is no theme this month.

Authors please do not nominate your own book.

Books with multiple nominations are more likely to make it to the final poll so please “second” and “third” and suggestions you'd like to see included on the poll.

*Any books nominated that do not follow these rules or are not horror fiction will be deleted from the nomination thread.

Thanks, everyone!

Kyle Stotts | 10 comments Dracul, please! Dracul by J.D. Barker . This was the best selling horror hardcover in the UK last year and I really want to see us do a group read or listen before the movie comes out. It's also nominated for a Stoker Award this year.

I had the opportunity to do so as the second post, but I used restraint, lest I accidentally start a movement.
