Books in the Freezer discussion

What do you have your eyes on for this one?

I just ordered The Valancourt Book of World Horror Stories -- not sure if that counts as a theme but I'm really excited for it.

I'm really trying to take advantage of my Kindle Unlimited subscription...so I picked C is for Cannibals. After reading the first story, I might have to put it in the freezer...

Halloween edited by Paula Guran.

I’m thinking Classics Mutated.

Tales From A Talking Board edited by Ross E. Lockhart.

Would Christa Carmen’s Something Borrowed, Something Bloodsoaked count for this category?

I believe anthologies are, by definition, a collection of works by different writers.

Reading Tainted Love - Women in Horror Anthology which showcases the many ways love can go wrong

I read Ellen Datlow's Nightmares: A New Decade of Modern Horror 2016.

Oh my goodness. Datlow is hardcore. Some of these stories still pop back up in my brain months later and I shudder- in a good way. Some of them were too disturbing. Some of them were forgettable. All in all, I am a big time Datlow fan now.

I discovered authors whom I'd never heard of and now follow. What a treat. Kaaron Warren, Ray Cluley, Livia Llewellyn. The collection ended with a fun, charming story by Garth Nix. I haven't read him since high school and he is still great.

I haven't read this one yet but I'm halfway through Datlow's Best Horror of the Year volume 11 (2019) and it's wonderful so far. Will add this one to my list.

I've never encountered a bad collection from Datlow. Haven't read that one, but will move it up on the list. Her "Best Horror of the Year" collections are always top notch.

I read Lost Signals, stories of creepy transmissions of all kinds. Excellent collection, highly recommended if, like me, you love those bizarre radio signals on dark empty highways and sitting in dim light listening to numbers stations.
