March 2020 Group Read Nominations
Mandibles by Jeff StrandThe Conqueror Worms by Brian Keene
Cows by Matthew Stokoe
COWS might be a bit extreme for the group though. I don't immediately recall anything that intense suggested previously.
+1 Slugs+1 Cows also but, from what I understand, that may be a bit strong for some folks (like Mike mentioned above).

Excellent read!!"
This one sounds fantastically interesting.
I heartily nominate Cows by Matthew Stokoe!!! A sometimes disgusting and disturbing ready but by turns also hilarious and with some fascinatingly original social commentary! Some pretty grotesque imagery but a very interesting narrative that for those of you with strong stomachs, this one could be right to your alley.
The Roo by Alan Baxter! Brand new kangaroo horror from an Australian author
I just picked up Animal Kingdom by Iain Rob White. I have not read it yet... but it sounds good!
On This, The Day of the Pig by Josh Malerman!
I second The Conqueror Worms by Brian Keene.
I nominate the horror anthology, Animal Uprising!
Does a creature feature count? I’ll nominate Brian Keene’s Pressure.
How about ZOO by James Patterson? I don't know if it fully classifies as horror but thought I'd throw it out there.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
or, The Dark Portal by Robin Jarvis? I remember being horrified by some parts of this book.

I have "Cujo" and "the Lost World" in my to-read list, but I could nominate "The Hound" by H.P Lovecraft.

The Dark Portal is YA fantasy, so that can't be nominated.
First rule of Bunyip club - We don't talk about Bunyip club.
Not sure if High Moore would count. But if it’s allowed, +1
