If you want a really good horror novel that's truly scary AND with great fleshed out characters, anything by Nick Cutter.

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue was the most recent book I read, and I LOVED it. It might open some doors though, because I had a couple sketch dreams of Lucifer lol

If you're into science fiction and a little satire Dad's Nuke and Kalifornia are both great reads from Marc Laidlaw. He wrote the entirety of the lore and story for the Half-Life universe and contributed significantly to the Portal games.

I would recommend the Thirst series. As well as the Zodiac Legacy series (its a Stan Lee series and it is AMAZING!)

Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi. It slows down near the end, but overall I loved it. I'm also currently reading Into the Wild, and I can say the first half is excellent!

I really enjoyed The Catastrophic History of You and Me


It's about a teenage girl named Brie who dies of a literal broken heart and she goes through the 5 stages of grief alongside a handsome ghost named Patrick who knows more about Brie than he lets on.

I recommend :)

seven husbands of evelyn hugo defo!! Very good complex characters, you become very attached to them quickly and this makes the book so much more emotional. It has thought provoking themes and discussions in it, to do with LGBTQ in Hollywood and in the past, the social ideas of marriage and abuse in different ways, domestically and in the film industry. One of my favourite books ever.

Scabbajack by Peter J Murray


Read it years ago after the author came to my school but it always stuck with me. It's a ghost story with occasion gruesome moments and can be a bit sad (especially towards the end).

 if you like non-fiction I'd recommend Three Mothers by Anna Malaika Tubbs

or the daughters of Kobani by Gayle Tzemach Lemmon. 
if you like historical/contemporary fiction; The Kite runner by Khaled Hosseini, A little life by Hanya Yanagihara. and more the romantic side (but also heavy themes) I'd recommend Colleen Hoover :))

Mexican Gothic by Silvia Monero Garcia was great! 
I read it for an english class a while back but re-read it on my own because it was just so good. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who likes mysteries, gothic novels, and/or mushrooms!

TW Mention of A_use

Mmm, this is already a well-known one but this one has such a personal meaning for me so, It Ends with Us! I read it, and just recently bought the physical version of the book and it really tackles the topic of abuse! It handles it well and really gets you to look back to the beginning of the book to see when you missed the signs that lead up to the climax of the book. it's a good short read and definitely recommend it to anyone!!
