Sepulchre is pretty cool, The Rats is OK, but kinda dated and not Herbert's best work. The Dark, on the other hand, is arguably my fave of his. It really was Herbert in his prime.

Rachel Bea (gekrepten) | 1761 comments In April I will be reading:

The Blind Owl by Sadegh Hedayat - Iranian horror, not really sure how "horror" it is but the blurb references Poe. I'll be starting this one soon.

Under a Watchful Eye by Adam Nevill will be picking this up from the library in a day or two so will probably start in a week?

The Prisoner of Hell Gate by Dana I. Wolff flexible on start date, i don't have the book yet but my library has it available. This has a lot of bad reviews it looks like but I am still kind of curious lol

anyone wanna join in one ?

I would join you with Nevill's Under a Watchful Eye, I already have a copy of this and wanted to read it soon, so why not in April. :)

Mehmet | 1241 comments A question for the moderators , would it be ok to ask to do buddy read for a sci fi or fantasy book ? Know its a horror group, but its my favourite place to chat books.

We can start next week if it's okay for you :)
Then I can finish my current reads this weekend and maybe someone decides over the Easter holidays to join us.

In my opinion, a buddy read is a buddy read. It doesn't matter what genre. HA is about bringing like-minded people together.


message 1663: by Mehmet (new)

Mehmet | 1241 comments Thanks Ken :-) , you planning on doing a buddy read for Catacombs ?


message 1664: by Kenneth (new)

Omg if y'all aren't reading Glenn Rolfe's Land of Bones, your missing out! He's one of Aprils guest authors. Anyone want to buddy read one of his books? I ask him for a suggestion so I'm waiting to see which he suggest but I'm thinking around April 20th?

Ginger | 3903 comments It seems like a few of you have read and like Adam Neville's books. I just found House of Small Shadows and would like to read it this year. If you're interested, we could do a buddy read in the future!
I'm scared to death of dolls and puppets so this is right up my alley.


message 1673: by Mehmet (new)

Mehmet | 1241 comments If I am free i would join in for this buddy read Ginger. I have this book House of small shadows

Nickronomicon | 179 comments I’d like to join this too, depending on when you start. There’s a Buddy Read going for Under a Watchful Eye right now. Adam Nevill is becoming one of my favorite modern horror authors.

Awesome Mehmet, Nickronomicon & Latasha! I could read this next month or whatever works for all of you. April is slammed packed with my book greed. hahaha

Continuing in May with another Nevill book would be great :)

Sweet!! I could start a buddy read for it in the next few days if that's good for everyone. I know we'll be starting at the beginning of May but this might give more people time to plan if they want to join. Does that work?
