THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU— VIVA LATINOAMÉRICA

Thank you so much to everyone who voted for my Latin American Horror list to be made into a Side Quest and thank you to everyone who has already joined it!

I am overwhelmed by all the love I’m getting from everyone and I still can’t believe that not only was my list nominated, but that enough people actually voted for it to be made into a Side Quest! I am so honored and I truly have no words.

I never thought that making a little list would get me here. I’m from Costa Rica and I wanted to spread some love not only for Latin American authors, but for my favorite genre as well. To see that other people share my sentiment is so touching and amazing.

I can’t believe how much love my Side Quest is getting— it’s making me so emotional, especially during these times when Latin American people have been getting so much hate in the U.S. and some people would love nothing more than for us to be ashamed of our heritage.

To that I say: QUÉ RICO ES SER LATINO.

Ps. If you want to see more Latin American Horror recommendations, please check out my 🔗list that inspired this Side Quest. I am planning on keeping the list alive and adding more recommendations as I find them.

I'm okay, I'm just sad

Well, I fought it off as long as I could but I woke up with the Big Sad today. It was so sunny last week and the winter was pretty mild so I thought I had gotten away with it, but I woke up today to rain and cold and it just hit me.

And I think what triggered it was not having anyone to talk to about The Caretaker, which I just finished and absolutely loved!

I'm the only mega book reader I know (that reads the stuff that I read anyway) all the book peeps around me are romance/Romantasy readers and they have such a big community! I read horror, and I don't know anyone else that does. I helped start, what I thought, was a horror book club but it's turned into just 'weird fiction' and the last couple books haven't been horror at all so I'm feeling a little douped by it (the other person who co-found it, is steering the ship so, I can't really do anything about it)

I dunno, I just want some weird horror book nerd IRL friends who will read the books with me, go to the horror movies, go to the cons, do all the things. I guess I just feel a little lonely....

So in an attempt to cheer myself up, if you love horror, please let me know what your favorite horror books/movies/shows/anime/cons/what ever!! is and why you love it so much!!

Thanks in advance, and I'm sorry if this isn't allowed (please delete if it's not) 👻

The Eyes Are the Best Part

Monika Kim

“Violent, smart, gruesome and wildly original, this novel pulls readers into a horrific world of murder and cannibalism while also critiquing misogyny, exploring Asian fetishization and stereotypes, sharing what it’s like to navigate two cultures and telling a touching story of a family in turmoil.” —New York Times Book Review Crying in H-Mart meets My Sister, the Serial Killer in this feminist psychological horror about the making of a female serial killer from a Korean-American perspective. Ji-won’s life tumbles into disarray in the wake of her appa’s extramarital affair and subsequent departure. Her mother, distraught. Her younger sister, hurt and confused. Her college freshman grades, failing. Her dreams, horrifying… yet enticing. In them, Ji-won walks through bloody rooms full of eyes. Succulent blue eyes. Salivatingly blue eyes. Eyes the same shape and shade as George’s, who is Umma’s obnoxious new boyfriend. George has already overstayed his welcome in her family’s claustrophobic apartment. He brags about his puffed-up consulting job, ogles Asian waitresses while dining out, and acts condescending toward Ji-won and her sister as if he deserves all of Umma’s fawning adoration. No, George doesn’t deserve anything from her family. Ji-won will make sure of that. For no matter how many victims accumulate around her campus or how many people she must deceive and manipulate, Ji-won’s hunger and her rage deserve to be sated. A brilliantly inventive, subversive novel about a young woman unraveling, Monika Kim’s The Eyes Are the Best Part is a story of a family falling apart and trying to find their way back to each other, marking a bold new voice in horror that will leave readers mesmerized and craving more.

The Fellowship of the Ring (The Lord of the Rings, #1)

J.R.R. Tolkien

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them. In ancient times the Rings of Power were crafted by the Elven-smiths, and Sauron, the Dark Lord, forged the One Ring, filling it with his own power so that he could rule all others. But the One Ring was taken from him, and though he sought it throughout Middle-earth, it remained lost to him. After many ages it fell into the hands of Bilbo Baggins, as told in The Hobbit. In a sleepy village in the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds himself faced with an immense task, as his elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to his care. Frodo must leave his home and make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ring and foil the Dark Lord in his evil purpose.

The Hobbit (The Lord of the Rings, #0)

J.R.R. Tolkien

In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort. Written for J.R.R. Tolkien’s own children, The Hobbit met with instant critical acclaim when it was first published in 1937. Now recognized as a timeless classic, this introduction to the hobbit Bilbo Baggins, the wizard Gandalf, Gollum, and the spectacular world of Middle-earth recounts of the adventures of a reluctant hero, a powerful and dangerous ring, and the cruel dragon Smaug the Magnificent. The text in this 372-page paperback edition is based on that first published in Great Britain by Collins Modern Classics (1998), and includes a note on the text by Douglas A. Anderson (2001).

One of those books that hit so good when picked at the right time. I tried reading The Picture of Dorian Gray as a teen and couldn't understand much of it. Even the French translation, my first language, didn't do it for me. Reading it now in my mid-twenties was still a challenge (thankful for the PB forum), but I can say I loved it nonetheless and my gosh is it brilliant. Also props to Oscar Wilde for writing such a queer-coded novel at that time!

It's more of a character study than a plot-focused story, considering the complex discussions always taking place in repetitive settings. There are good twists though and things do amp up towards the ending (which is perfect by the way, no notes). Some parts were very dense and difficult to read, but they fully expose these characters' morals, and I found it so interesting to see how they shaped Dorian's (at first) innocent mind. Very happy to have finally read this!

The Picture of Dorian Gray

Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde’s only novel is the dreamlike story of a young man who sells his soul for eternal youth and beauty. In this celebrated work Wilde forged a devastating portrait of the effects of evil and debauchery on a young aesthete in late-19th-century England. Combining elements of the Gothic horror novel and decadent French fiction, the book centers on a striking premise: As Dorian Gray sinks into a life of crime and gross sensuality, his body retains perfect youth and vigor while his recently painted portrait grows day by day into a hideous record of evil, which he must keep hidden from the world. For over a century, this mesmerizing tale of horror and suspense has enjoyed wide popularity. It ranks as one of Wilde's most important creations and among the classic achievements of its kind.
