 Hello everybody! Can you believe we are already on day 28?!?!?! This month has gone so fast it's unbelievable. Today I have a guest post from the wonderful Amy Lukavics! She has written some spooky books and her latest one, The Women In The Walls is crazy scary! Amy is talking about her top 5 spooky reads!  Ever since she was little, Amy was especially intrigued by horror books and movies. Raised in a small mountain town in Arizona, she sustained herself on a steady diet of Goosebumps, Fear Street, and Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark books before discovering Stephen King in her mother's bookshelf. Amy lives with her husband, their two precious squidlings, and an old gentleman cat by the name of Frodo. When she isn't writing, she enjoys cooking, crafting, and playing games across many platforms. TWITTER-WEBSITE 1. The Troop by Nick Cutter. Viscerally terrifying and equally heartbreaking. I could not put this book down no matter how hard I tried. 2. The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson. A legend of the horror genre, this book didn't have me entirely until the end, in which I was won over and then some. Shirley Jackson's writing is so good it hurts. 3. Through the Woods by Emily Carroll. My favorite story in Through the Woods is, by far, The Nesting Place. Skin crawlingly creepy and visually stunning. 4. The Cipher by Kathe Koja. A riveting, engaging, and perfectly Hellish ride. 5. Bird Box by Josh Malerman. Top notch storytelling. My favorite part about this book is that it never explicitly describes the monsters, leaving it to your imagination's wildest guesses. This one, like The Troop, really pulls at your heartstrings in unexpected but unforgettable ways.  Something isn't right in this house. Lucy Acosta's mother died when she was three.
