Book #90 for the year. I set my goal lower this year (72) because I was busy with contract negotiations, but it looks like I’ll crack 100 after all. I’ll start posting some highlights of the reading year through December. It’s been rather random and unfocused but still lots of great books. 📚💙

Starting to see ads for Black Friday sales so time to remind people to support your local independent bookstores and don’t give Bezos any more money. This applies year round, but is extra critical this time of year.

Just finished Absolution by @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social Absofuckinglutely brilliant. Best in the series for my money. I seem to be in the minority who liked Authority best of the original trilogy though, so what do I know. This series demands a reread. #BookSky 📚💙

I’ve been wanting to read Thomas Ligotti for years and finally took the plunge with this incredible collection of stories. The Foreward by @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social is excellent as well. Following up the Ligotti by finishing the Southern Reach series with Acceptance and Absolution. #BookSky 📚💙

Hell yeah! Two more bangers from @sgj.bsky.social Thankfully, I have many more of his books still to read. #BookSky 📚💙

Spooky Season 2025. Books still in progress. It’s the last day of October and I am still too far from the end of these books to finish by the end of the day. It’s been a lot of fun doing this deep dive into horror this month and I may just continue into November. #BookSky 📚💙

Spooky Season 2025, Book #19. The sequel exceeded my high expectations. As expected, I am now going to have a tough time waiting until book 3 is published in October 2026. #BookSky 📚💙

Spooky Season 2025, Book #18. I am so happy the second book in this series is already out, but I already know I’m going to be chomping at the bit waiting for book 3. Do yourself a favour and set aside a morning or afternoon to devour this in a single sitting. #BookSky 📚💙

I credit @johnlangan.bsky.social with helping me see I had been negligent in ignoring the Horror genre. After The Fisherman, I decided to see what else I had been missing. I’ve discovered many new favourite books and authors, but Langan still stands out in the crowd.

Spooky Season 2025, Book #13. So good. My first book by @tananarivedue.bsky.social but I will most definitely be reading more.

Spooky Season 2025, Book #12. This book’s reputation is well founded. Brutal. Not for the faint of heart or weak of stomach. #BookSky 📚💙

Spooky Season 2025, Book #9. This is the second book I’ve read by @silviamg.bsky.social and I am officially hooked. I loved Mexican Gothic but Silver Nitrate has a special appeal for this film and horror buff. #BookSky 📚💙
