SWOONING FOR ALL THINGS BOOKISH.
Two Twisted Crowns by Rachel Gillig
TWO TWISTED CROWNS was everything I wanted in a sequel and gave me the epic ending I craved. Rachel Gillig writes a darker read with plenty of deadly consequences, turmoil and moodier atmosphere as Elspeth must come to terms with what she has brought upon herself and those she cares about.
The Daughter of Doctor Moreau by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Moreno-Garcia sweeps readers into a world of dazzling and horrific scientific experiments in her retelling of H.G. Wellโs The Island of Doctor Moreau.
What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher
This little novella is packed with all kinds of gothic horror, dripping in atmosphere and psychological tension. Itโs the retelling of Edgar Allan Poe's classic โThe Fall of the House of Usherโ that you have been waiting for.
The Bone Orchard by Sara A. Mueller
I loved the unique concept created in The Bone Orchard. Dark, full of political machinations and necromancy, Muellerโs debut is filled visually with decadent descriptions and intrigue.
