These are some great noms, some way out of the box and I love that. Keep em coming!

The Merciless

All the Truth That's in Me

I'll +1 The Troop because I loved that book. It f*cked me up but in a good way. I'd love to read people's comments on it.

+1 The Traveling Vampire Show
+1 Children of the Dark
I'd also like to nominate:
- Coraline by Neil Gaiman
- The Bottoms by Joe R. Lansdale

Jedi Summer: With the Magnetic Kid
and Children of the dark by Jonathan Janz
Children of the Dark
a..."
Children of the Dark is excellent

+1 for Mystery Walk
+1 for Boy's Life
+1 foe The Traveling Vampire Show
and I would like to nominate my personal favorite coming of age novel...
Summer of Night, by Dan Simmons
Sadly,
is NOT eligible because we read it in August 2018. (It's one of my personal favorites too!!)
Also,
The Saturday Night Ghost Club was read in October 2019, and not eligible.

Also,



+1 The Bottoms
+1 The Summer I Died
+1 Until Summer Comes Around
+1 Stolen Tongues
+1 Fear

Cool! They appeared on our buddy read thread too! You rock, Char!


No worries, Char! You will be the first to know - I will keep my eyes peeled. :)

Summer of Night is by Dan Simmons and has that kind of Stephen King vibe but a lot more frightening and not to start a fight but I think Dan Simmons just has a better writing style or is at least something different if you are a Stephen King fan but want to read something else. Part of a series called the Seasons of Horror. I think all the books can be read as stand alone books regardless but Summer of Night is the first.



December Park by Ronald Malfi
Boy’s Life by..."
I haven't really been as active as I should be, either. It's been crazy for me the last couple of months.


Summer of Night—Dan Stevens
The Twisted Ones—T. Kingfisher (SO good!)
Voices in the Snow—Darcy Coates (the first of the Black Winter series and it’s my favorite series!)
+1 for Children of the Dark because it was THE best book I read this year
+1 for The Ghost Tree because it was the second best book I read this year.
