Brother by Ania Ahlborn totally belongs here!

I added it to the list!

If you take any recs: You Weren't Meant to Be Human by Andrew Joseph White would fit the theme

Yes I do. Thank you, I'll add it to the list

I actually have 100% overlap with this so I added it immediately 😆

❤️❤️ I really want to read the Bog Wife sometime. I write Appalachian horror myself, love finding other good ones to read

I loved the Bog Wife, I can't stop recommending that book. Appalachian horror is such a cool subgenre of horror.
