I'm working my way through Dead Sea by Tim Curran, maybe 25% in. So far I like it but there are times when I feel like it's dragging a bit.

Also listening to the audiobook for Let Me In by John Ajvide Lindqvist. Almost finished and have been really enjoying it.

I just finished Echo by Thomas Olde Heuvelt. I found it to be a more unique story, pulling from a wider variety of influences for the sources of the scares, than his previous novel Hex even if it ended up being a bit more uneven as result. I still think when it works it really works, but there were certainly portions of the book where it lost steam for me as well. Definitely looking forward to seeing how his next book Oracle turns out!

Next, I'm planning to start The Hacienda by Isabel Cañas for some classic gothic haunted house vibes hopefully!
