What better way to get ready for the spooky season than a conversation with @mother_horror author Sadie Hartmann with our favorite horror book recommender, @redreadreviews?! Sadie's book, "Feral and Hysterical: Mother Horror’s Ultimate Reading Guide to Dark and Disturbing Fiction by Women" takes a close look at horror stories written by and/or featuring women. What could be more fun? We already know that women (or female identifying) can be equally disturbing to their male (or male identifying) counterparts - I mean, we birth babies, right?!?! - so we're looking forward to this fun and enlightening conversation. Bring your questions because we'll have plenty of time for a robust Q&A!
About the book:
Bram Stoker Awards® winning author Sadie “Mother Horror” Hartmann has curated the ultimate collection of recommendations from the leading ladies of horror! From classic authors such as Mary Shelley, Shirley Jackson, and Daphne du Maurier to the modern wave of indie names and all the underrated voices waiting to be discovered, there’s enough deadly damsels in here to leave you feeling distressed long after you’ve run out of shelf space.
Each recommendation includes a spoiler-free synopsis and has been carefully catalogued and organized into thematic reading lists making it easier than ever to sate your darkest desires. Are you in your Gothic Era? Love watching a marriage gruesomely fall apart? Just finished Mexican Gothic and need more Sporror in your life? Whatever you’re vibing with, there’s a list for that.
Featuring a foreword by prolific horror author Ania Ahlborn and five essays from Alma Katsu, Alexis Henderson, Christina Henry, Rae Wilde, and Laura Purcell, this fully illustrated reader’s guide is a must-have for any horror fanatic looking to get out of a reading slump or diversify their TBR pile.
