An extremely funny take on portal fantasy - his Terrible Worlds series is absolutely amazing and this book is no exception. A reluctant, selfish hero meets the worst possible version of Narnia ever - say no more. I highly recommend this series of novellas and am so looking forward to the next one!

An amazing anthology of Black horror short stories! Like most anthologies, there were some stories that missed the mark for me, but overall this is a fantastic collection - highly recommended for any horror fan.

Much like Hallowe'en Party, I don't think her later books are for me. I'm also not sure if this could possibly qualify as a Ms Marple book - she was barely in it!

Not much Halloween in Hallowe'en Party. This is probably my least favourite of her books so far, despite the fact that it features my guy Poirot. I feel like the books she wrote later in life just aren't for me - too much complaining about the youths (more power to her on that, but it doesn't make for a compelling read) and some lazy plots.

A gorgeous southern Gothic tale from Alix E. Harrow. I absolutely loved the combination of fantasy, horror, and Gothic elements. The amazing characters are amazing, despite their flaws, and I loved all of the interactions between them. This book also depicts one of the best sibling relationships I've ever read. This will easily make my 'best books of the year' list!
