Today we are doing the You’re Not Good Enough Tag! #yourenotgoodenough
Super tank you to Mers at Harpies in the Trees for doing a horror version of this and inspiring me to follow along!
Watch that fun one here : https://youtu.be/ktw9J4r0KiI
And the questions :
1. You only have one more spot on your Spelling Bee team, who would you pick to complete your team?
2. Both characters want to kill you, which one would you kill first so you have a better chance of surviving?
3. You’re on the bachelorette and you’re down to these two characters, which one are you going to give your rose too?
4. You’ve been chosen for the Hunger Games, who would most likely volunteer in your place?
5. You’re stranded on an island. Which character would you sacrifice to engage in cannibalism?
6. You’re the next DC/Marvel superhero, who is your sidekick?
7. You’re a manager of an Avocado admiring company, who would you fire for lack of communication skills?
8. You’ve just finished a book in which your favorite character dies, which character is most likely to comfort you?
9. Ugh, it’s high school. Who would most likely be part of the popular clique?
10. The day has arrived; you’re finally a year older! Who would have the nerve to forget your birthday?
11. You’ve just found an upcoming booktube star? Who would it most likely be?
12. Sleepover time! Unfortunately, you can only invite one person, who would you invite?
13. Bam, you’re pregnant. Who’s the father?
14. You’ve just written a super important text. Who would ‘see’ it, but not reply?
15. You’ve just woken up and it’s time for breakfast. Your mum’s been replaced by..who?!
Sorry if I missed anything as I am rushing out the door on an early weekend. Have a wonderful one!

Today on Typical Books with Lydia we have Horror in the Woods by Lee Mountford. This was a Book Market find from a previous haul, so I am glad to bet getting to it. A perfect little splatter novel to follow House of Leaves.
Lee's work is on Amazon ▹ https://amzn.to/37CWQuw

Today we have a little show and tell of five horror classics in augmented reality editions ~ just in time for Halloween from Augmented Classics ~ you can see more at https://www.augmentedclassics.com
We talk about Dracula, The Phantom of the Opera, Jekyll and Hyde, Frankenstein, and The Picture of Dorian Gray. Beautiful and terrifying stories, all.
While this is not a sponsored video, Augmented Classics did send two of the books along after I provided review snippets for each of the five horror classics, unrelated to the video, for the print run only. Very grateful to be included in this cool project so thank you!

If there are #horror books out there that you think I ought to read, let me know. I talk scary books, extreme horror, classic, gothic, and everything in between. Helping you find the next best horror book to read is the goal, and sharing new and old horror from my #booktube shelves and new releases is how! Horror, nonfiction and even true-crime can be found here as I find that human beings the scariest thing of all ~

Today on Typical Books we have a little A to Z of horror literature! A while ago, I did a 26-video run of recommendations on TikTok so I thought I'd share it here too!
✮
There are more than one book for each letter and sometimes it is an author name since this is not as easy as it seemed!
Happy Halloween!

Normally I review horror books but today it is all about my pewter ornaments. Why would a quasi-satanic untrad-goth horror fiend like #Christmas #decorations so much? Because it is pagan as hell, that's why. My grandmother was an Avon lady, and as such, we had a very Avon christmas each year. This explains my adoration of Martha Stewart, Courier and Ives, and holly over jolly. The closest I can come to all that now is keeping my mother's tradition of decorating a tree and also stocking up on these lovely pewter ornaments. Only half of my collection is here so maybe next year I will do another with the rest. Enjoy, and as ever, enjoy any amount of comfort, food, and the warmth that can be found in the cold.

Today on Typical Books we get into my final thoughts on House of Leaves. It was... okay. Okay? Well, it does say on the facing page "This is not for you".
Thank you to Jo-Anne for piquing my interest in this book all over again. I did like the horror aspects here and it was a perfect time to read it!
Mentioned in this video... a link to a wiki which is a potential spoiler so I regret I cannot type it here. Unfortunately in saying as much, I fear I am feeding the unearned (? perhaps) mystique that this book already has enough of. What a Catch-22.
I gave it 2.5 stars... and I liked it.
