So in the last couple of weeks I've discovered this manga and I absolutely fell in love with it! It's called The Summer Hikaru Died and while it's technically classified as horror it's so much more than that! And also, the artwork is absolutely gorgeous! 🥰

vivastory I have heard a lot about this & am super intrigued. I need a new horror manga to follow now that I finished Blood on the Tracks 2d

This is pretty spooky horror. The mother is in a coma of sorts but she moves around when no one is paying attention. The narrator acts like a petulant child at times. I started questioning if they were all ghosts. Amazing.

hopefully this novella is better than “nothing but blackened teeth”. #horror

edit: finished the novella in about a hour. 2/5. Interesting plot, but good god someone needs to rip away their thesaurus. “unhandsomeness” instead of ugly, “phalanges” instead of fingers, and so on. there is a bonus short story (like 4 pages) at the end that I liked more than the novella #mermaids #bodyhorror

The language & snowy atmosphere of this weird & ambitious sci fi novel immediately grabbed me. The voice is so exciting and unique, the set up bleak and Gothic, complete w/a cast of unsavory noblepeople. Like Mexican Gothic, it‘s a contemporary ex. of the genre‘s enduring relevance.

I wld‘ve loved to waller in the mood of the 1st 1/3, but it takes a turn that is less interesting both philosophically and narratively. Towards the end, it dragged.

#JumpScares aren't easy to do in books, but these titles all surprised me while reading in ways I didn't expect.

1. The Liminal Zone- this was my first Junji Ito, and he is a master of the horror manga.
2. Salem's Lot- the kid at the window has always freaked me out! A great read.
3. Night Film- this dark, twisted read will keep you on edge and have your heart pounding as it unravels.
4. Dead Silence- you never know what's around the corner. ⬇️

Addison_Reads 5. How to Sell a Haunted House- taxidermy squirrels! I was caught so off-guard by that scene. 😁 #HauntedShelf @PuddleJumper #HexesandCrows @Catsandbooks #BookRecommendations 6mo

Finally settled on this. Horror set on a remote Irish Isle? Yes, please. That Nghi Vo also looks fab. I generally enjoy her books. This was difficult.
