The Cursed Among Us
Thoughts:
This author's work kept coming across my Goodreads feeds last year and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about so we had a buddy read of the book this year in one of my groups with the author coming over as well to discuss the book. I read this book fast as I could hardly put it down and I loved it so much that I grabbed his other work too. Planning on read his book Inside the Devil's Nest soon.

Churn of the Soil
Thoughts:
I had been seeing this author's books for awhile and I do have a few of his books on my kindle. This book came up as a guest author read in the group, Horror Aficionados last month (March) and I decided to join the group read with author to check out the book. Loved this book so much as it was very creepy and mysterious that I cannot wait to read the other books I have by him.

Through the Surface
Thoughts:
I like checking out books by "new to me" authors and I read the synopsis on this book as it is wrapped around the occult. It sounded really good so I decided to jump into it as I was in the mood for something spooky. I ended up with more than spooks as this book was scary wild and kept me up a few nights reading it! I even had some wicked dreams with this one but that always means to me that the book was excellent enough to wrap itself around my psyche core! :) Looking forward to reading more books by this author.

And the Sea Called Her Name
Thoughts:
I kept seeing the book "And the Sea Called Her Name" coming across my Goodreads feeds a few years back and wanted to see why some of my friends were reading it. The book definitely was a creepy ride and then I noticed that his other books looked just as creepy so I read his book Lineage next and that book also was spooky. Looking forward to reading more books by this author.

Werewolf on the Western Front (Avery & Carter #2)
Thoughts:
I wanted something different a few years back and came across the book "Vampire on the Orient Express" by this author. I loved it so much as the gothic writing style reminded me of the days of old and the writing style just flowed along. Then I read his book "Werewolf on the Western Front" and I loved it as well. I now have his third book "The Heart of the Mummy" on my kindle which I will be reading it soon.

New Year's Bloody Eve
Thoughts:
I hadn't really seen the books by this author come across Goodreads feeds. I had actually been reading something and one of his books came up as a comparison on Goodreads so I checked it out which was the book "Windows to the Soul" and ended up really liking the book, so I went and grabbed more books by this author. I have a couple more spooky books to step into at some point.

Scar
Thoughts:
I had been reading something about sharks about four years ago and the book "Thresher" popped up as a comparison so I grabbed it and decided to check out this author. I am so happy that I did as I loved the book and was actually looking up stuff while reading it to learn more about this type of shark in that story. Since then I have read his book "Scar" last summer and really enjoyed it as well.

The Haunted House from Hell
Kraken
Thoughts:
This author is another one that popped up with a comparison read from Goodreads as I had been reading a book with a haunted house and the book "The Haunted House from Hell" came up. So I checked it out and ended up loving the book which sent me on a quest to see what else this author had out there. I have a few more of his on my tbr that I need to read at some point in the future.
Final Thoughts:
So that is my wrap up of 10 more authors that I have discovered within the last few years. More to come of this series soon.
Happy Reading! 😊📚
