We Have Always Lived in the Castle - Shirley Jackson
The Haunting of Hill House - Shirley Jackson
Ghost Eaters - Clay McLeod Clay
The Luminous Dead - Caitlin Starling
The Hollow Places - T. Kingfisher
The Twisted Ones - T. Kingfisher
The Lost Village - Camilla Sten
Sour Candy - Kealan Patrick Burke

Small Angels by Lauren Owen was excellent. The sense of pervasive dread was really palpable while reading. One of my favorite reads in the last few years.

Oh this one sounds great! Definitely going to check it out. Love it when a book can capture that feeling of dread and anxiety well.
