I don't read much horror so this list is going to lean more towards ghosts and witches. Witches count, right?
1/ Hell of a Witch by Rachel Aaron
This is book two in the Tear Down Heaven series that started with Hell for Hire. The two main characters are demon queen Bex, who is fighting to save her people from enslavement by Gilgamesh and his sorcerers and Adrian, a male witch with a magical forest. Every bit as much fun as the author's Heartstriker series and with a very nice romantic subplot.
2/ Demons of Good and Evil by Kim Harrison
This is the latest-in-paperback Hollows book with witch Rachel Morgan in trouble again. The high-magic high-action series dates back to the urban fantasy heyday, but you may not be aware that it has restarted after supposedly "ending" with Witch with No Name. I'm halfway through reading this one.
Now on to the books I'm planning to read:
3/ Bag of Bones by Stephen King
King can be a little hit or miss for me, but I really enjoyed Fairytale and have been meaning to try this ghost story for a while.
4/ Cunning Revenants by B.D. Wilson
This is third in a series of novellas (starting with Phantom Echoes) about a blind man with a talent for psychometry who gets roped into helping with his friend's ghost podcast. I think this one will delve deeper into Holden's backstory and I'm looking forward to it.
5/ Blood Ties by Skyla Dawn Cameron
I love this author's Livi Talbot series and have been meaning to try this one with a witch main character.
And that's all my planned spooky reading! Please share your reading list or recommendations in the comments.
