9 Thrilling and Spooky Reads for the Halloween Season
The Reading Lists Staff, Medium -
Halloween's Most Horrifying Horror
The Chill Quill, BookTrib - Dave Simms offers a stunning review of The Daughters of Block Island for Cemetery Dance: "The gothic horror novel just received a massive shot of adrenaline to its bleak-but-beautiful-heart...a stunning novel that arrives in the final month of the year, just in time for the calendar's longest nights of darkness. In this debut novel, Carmen doesn't attempt to top the classics; instead, she subverts them in a unique manner. She embraces the tropes that made the subgenre what it is and forges an enthralling tale of two sisters, a strange town, and a cast of characters that would make the masters proud...If this is any indication of what Christa Carmen can bring into the world, readers will be smiling under candlelight for years to come. An exceptional new talent has arrived."
