This book is essentially a list of books that the author just likes a lot. Each section starts with a brief overview of what she thinks about the subgenre and ends with an author spotlights (an interview or just a short bio). There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to why the books are included into each section, other than she just likes them. Some of them admittedly don't fit well into any section so they are just placed. I expected there to be some criteria as to why they were included or have some sort of connective tissue about horror literature, but it's essentially a personal shopping list turned into a book.

For the love of god, do not read this in ebook. What is a page with multiple book covers in the physical book is a single page per book cover in the digital version. The print book is less than 200 pages, the kindle version is over 500. So much tapping through random pictures of book covers.
