March 2022 Group Read Nominations
I think there must be a problem with the Goodreads notifications. I'm getting any at all :(Cursed objects is a great theme. My nominations are:
The Amulet by Michael McDowell
and
The Good House by Tananarive Due
Mod
The Good House is a terrific book, +1 for that :)I'll nominate-
Coraline by Neil Gaiman
The movie is one of my all time favorite, but I never quite got around to reading the book.
+1 Coraline (I’m also a “loved the movie, never read the book” person)+1 The Good House
Mod
The Graveyard Apartment"
This one was read as a group in June of 2020, so it is not eligible. Please feel free to nominate something else.
*I noticed that the link to previous group reads wasn't working earlier; if this is the case, you can find it on the Horror Aficionados home page under GROUP READS, (subtitle) Previous Group Reads and Listens.*

It's not out yet so don't know if I should nominate it, but I will anyway, lol. Comes out March 1st.Sundial by Catriona Ward
(and yes I really should learn how to link and post pictures!)
My nomination is an indie read by Brian Asman called Man, F*ck This House. It’s a quick and entertaining read.
Mod
Radial buttons at the bottom of the box give you the option of adding photo or text..
I nominate Man, F*ck This House by Brian Asman :)

+1 for The Good House, Coraline, and Christine!

Sundial"The book sounds interesting but since it isn't expected to be widely available until March 1, I'll have to pass on it. It's cutting it too close for members to acquire a copy for the group read.

Amazing book if you want to read about haunted places. How about a church that is always in a man;s sights.

The theme for March is OBJECTS OR PLACES THAT ARE HAUNTED OR CURSED .
I can't wait to see what books you horror-lovers come up with.
Books read or listened to as a group within the past 3-4 years are NOT eligible. You can find a list of those books here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
Nomination rules can be found at this link: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
As always, authors may not nominate their own work. Books with more than one nomination ( +1 ) are more likely to make it onto the final poll, so feel free to second a book you'd like to read.
Most of all have fun and try to out scare each other!
