No reader's bookshelf is complete without the brilliant @elizabethhand.bsky.social. I picked up a copy of "Hokuloa Road" at my local bookstore. I can't wait to travel to Hand's haunting and atmospheric mystery island. #writingcommunity #writerslift #readmorebooks #booktok #bluesky #Booksky

@mattdinniman.bsky.social's 3rd Carl and Princess Donut adventure, "The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook," is set among the train and subway system. What else is there to say? The Carl sticker is a bonus. #writingcommunity #writerslift #writers #readers #readmorebooks #booktok #booksky #bluesky

@elizabethhand.bsky.social: I loved your version of Hill House more than Shirley's. Your way with words is incredible, evocative and atmospheric. I enjoyed "Curious Toys" and your short story, "For Sale By Owner" in the collection, "When Things Get Dark." I hope you write another spooky tale.

After scaring myself silly with @michaelwehunt.bsky.social's "The October Film Haunt," Wehunt returns with the perfect Halloween read. This time, I am bracing myself for more spooks and scares. #writingcommunity #writerslift #writers #readers #horror #halloweenreads #readmorebooks #booktok #booksky

Resident Evil was a blast. I hope Zach Cregger, with all his brilliant genius and vision, directs another Resident Evil movie. I do not remember when I was deeply entertained and transfixed the entire time watching a horror movie (this year). #writingcommunity #horror #bluesky #movies #zachcregger

Gripping, beautiful, brutal, and a must-read, James writes with such depth that "The Disappearers" is hard to put down. #writingcommunity #writers #readers #lgbt #gayfiction #bluesky #Booksky #Booktok #readmorebooks #literary

One of my automatic, go-to authors, Ragnar Jonasson's "Death at the Sanatorium" is a must-read mystery. I can't wait to read the third book in the Helgi series, "Body in the Bath," coming November 2026. #writingcommunity #writerslift #booksky #bluesky #readmorebooks #booktok #writers #readers

@ThomasGrantBruso @thomasgrantbruso.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Are you looking for a last-minute summer read or spooky fall read? I highly recommend my new novel, "The Dead Hour." The paperback is available and more menacing in person. Read with the lights on! #writingcommunity #writerslift #readers #lgbt #readmorebooks #writers www.amazon.com/Dead-Hour-Th...

Spooky book titles for the fall/Halloween season. I have heard nothing but inviting criticism for both of these books. Has anybody read them? #writingcommunity #writerslift #booktok #readmorebooks #horror #booksky #bluesky #writers #readers @spookypurcell.bsky.social, Scott Thomas.

Told in an epistolary style, Janice Hallett's newest novel in the Appeal Series centers on Lower Lockwood's stage production of Agatha Christie's "The Hollow." What could go wrong? #writingcommunity #writerslift #booktok #readmorebooks #horror #booksky #bluesky #writers #readers #mystery

@rachelharrison.bsky.social's latest horror, "Kiss, Slay, Replay," was hard to find. It was sold out at every bookstore I visited. I finally found a copy at an independent bookshop. It has "Happy Death Day" vibes. I am already invested. #writingcommunity #writerslift #Booksky #booktok #readmorebooks

I've enjoyed Smith's 44 Scotland Street and Isabel Dalhousie series, but I have never, until now, read a No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency book. I don't know why, but I thought "The Great Hippopotamus Hotel" sounded like another easy, laidback reading experience. #booksky #writerslift #writers #readers
