We here at MonsterLibrarian.com are pleased to announce the fifth annual “Halloween Horrors!” horror book review event. Starting on October 1st, outstanding horror fiction review sites will come together to create a virtual guide to titles that will keep readers up at night.
“Halloween Horrors!” is an excellent way for librarians to get acquainted with horror genre titles both mainstream and small press. The event provides a tool to help librarians with reader’s advisory and collection development as well as become familiar with online review resources for what can be a challenging genre.
Each participating review site will have a project page dedicated to reviews of horror genre books that links to the other participating sites’ review pages. We will also be including a list of book recommendations that can be paired with horror movies to promote reading horror.
Participating sites in this year’s project include MonsterLibrarian.com, Horrorworld, Hellnotes, Horror Fiction Review, and Spooky Reads. Each site will be updating their page and reviews throughout the month so remember to visit often.
