Recs if you like My Cousin Rachel...

A list of 100 gothic classics which covers over 250 years of literature, from the high-drama castles of the 1700s to the psychological "New Gothic" of today.

Here's me keeping track of (most) of the books mentioned in this non-fiction adventure, for the good of all of us.

There is also a reading list at the back of the book, but I think I got them all.

I love thrillers! I also...hate thrillers. 😅 This list is borne of a personal quest to find more of the thrillers I enjoy, specifically ones published in the 20th century. No Gone Girl or Freida McFadden here, I'm afraid.

Women caught in haunted houses, shadowed marriages, and dark obsessions.

List of classics for those interested in the genre.

Women pushing the boundaries of what’s acceptable in pursuit of their urges and desires. They’re behaving badly, unconventionally, and selfishly. Some are violent, some are horny, some are traumatized, some are angry—but all of them are finally acting for themselves.

An expansive list born out of combination of feminine rage, weird girl lit, “good for her”, women vs the void, monstrous feminine, and everything in between. Books written by women, trans, and nonbinary authors only.

Some spooky, some cozy - these are some of the best autumn books I've read.

a list for fiction books set in cornwall, even if only for part of the story. (title is from a quote by thomas hardy)

the perfect books to cozy up with on a chilly evening while leaves fall
