OOH, thank you for these! I've read two and have a couple more on my TBR already, and I'm definitely going to check out the others for potential future reads. :D
I've read sooooo much horror this past year and a half, I could probably easily do a top ten of my own (which would also have How To Sell a Haunted House on it), but I'll contain myself to my top favorite and one of my overall favorite books of the past year: The September House by Carissa Orlando. I don't want to give away too much about what the Real Horror is or everything I loved about it, because a lot of that unfolds slowly and/or is related to the ending, but it was darkly hilarious, scary, and a total delight. I almost reread it this September despite having just read it in December '23, and I'll almost certainly reread it in September '25 since I didn't end up doing it this year.
