Top Ten Tuesday; Underrated Horror Books To Read

It's Tuesday and time for another Top Ten Tuesday post, courtesy of That Artsy Reader Girl. As it was genre freebie week this week, I decided writing a list of underrate horror books to read. Fair enough, horror is an underrated genre in general, but these books are underrated in an already underrated genre.


Here's my ten underrated picks.

Tethered by Bryce Gibson

Greyfriars Reformatory by Frazer Lee

Misfits by Hunter Shea

The Thirteenth Koyote by Kristopher Triana

The Haunting of Lágrimas by W. M. Cleese

The Midwives by Duncan Ralston

Camp Firwood by Boris Bacic

Sallow Bend by Alan Baxter

The Cursed Among Us by John Durgin

Shepherd's Warning by Cailyn Lloyd

    This was fun! I hadn't heard of these before, so you're correct about underrated. I hope this post changes that!

    These all look terrifying! I enjoy a ghost story/light horror novel occasionally, but I'm too wimpy for anything TOO scary :)

    Happy TTT!

    Thank you for the recommendations! I'm in the mood for horror, but it's hard to find books that are actually scary.

Announcing the 2025 Diversity Reading Challenge

Even though I'm technically having a hiatus for my book blogging at the moment, I still wanted to announce the 2025 Diversity Reading Challenge, just in case anyone wanted to participate in it and start planning their TBR pile. I’m not going to make any categories or levels for this challenge, as I want it to be a bit flexible. Read as many books as you feel like reading and yes, it can be children’s books, graphic novels, e-books, non-fiction, audio books, poetry and you-name-it. As it is a diversity reading challenge, it would be mean to exclude some types of reading materials, right? Now, what is diversity you might ask? What I mean by diversity is, but not limited to; People of colour/non-caucasian characters/authors Native Americans and other indigenous people LGBTQIA+ Authors/characters defining themselves as trans, intersex, genderfluid or similar Refugees Religious minorities Mental illnesses/disorders Neurodiversity (like ADHD and autism) Feminist themes/issues Physical/m...
