- Typical Books EP147 - New Horror Books for October
Here are a few Typical Books and atypical ones too! There are so many new books coming to horror this month and this is just a tiny sample I'd say. First, a two-book haul from the thrift store where I also found a nice pumpkin tea light holder, so I share a few photos of some of the pumpkins around the house.

14 min - Typical Books EP145 - Mina's Child Review
Mina's Child by Paul Butler is a Typical Book and it fits right up on the Vampire shelf beside Dracula et al despite not being hard-boiled horror.
This was absolutely enjoyable. Not knowing what to expect, as there are so many vampire stories related tot he original Stoker book, this fits alongside Dracula and the Dacre Stoker books as well. While relying less on a supernatural angle and much more on setting and character, this is a new gothic that will please readers of literary fiction, historical, and horror alike.

15 min - Typical Books EP144 - Devil's Creek Review
It is a Typical Book in that I have a morbid fascination with cult and fundamentalist... zealots? Having grown up in a very spiritually open-minded home and town, this is creepy to me on other levels perhaps. Devil's Creek by Todd Keisling - Religious or Cult Horror Fiction Review I was having some sort of small allergic reaction so my skin is rough and maaaaaybe should have held off on the video but I wanted to talk about this one!

12 min - Typical Books EP138 - August Haul featuring Dracula
It is a Typical Book, and how! We went out this weekend as noted in photos I posted Sunday. Among the treasures - or loot, in keeping with the Diablo III Collector's Edition we brought home - I spied a new and lovely edition of Dracula on the shelves.
This, an almanac, and I'm Thinking of Ending Things by Iain Reid came home, which has been on my list for a long time. Just a small haul, as it is not like I don't have many lovely books to read right now. In other news, we are back at it on Dead Air Podcast at https://soundcloud.com/deadairpodcast, and you can catch me daily at 12:30 EST playing Diablo III as noted on https://www.twitch.tv/typicallydia!

About Typical Books of Terror: Horror Books and Fiction Discussion
From the publisher's feed
Typical Books: Horror Fiction Unbound talks about horror books each week - novels as well as anthologies, collections and novellas. From new releases to classics, Lydia pulls from being a writer and reader to bring you a digest of horror happenings.
I curate the members new release page on the Horror Writers Association website, and check in each month with other horror books coming out that I can find. I also review a book or two each month, and have polls so you can weigh in on what I'll read next.
Check out https://typicalbooks.com for more!
