Horror Spotlight will be hosting a readathon from March 1-15! Won’t you join us? The calendar is full of celebration days!
Here are a few, with reading recommendations, if you need some prompts for ideas.
March 3 - I Want You to be Happy Day
Try out a toxic romance, like You by Caroline Kepnes or Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke by Eric LaRocca. Or, take out the toxic and add some spicy and try Someone to Share My Nightmares by Sonora Taylor.
March 8 - Be Nasty Day and/or International (Working) Women's Day
Why not combine them and look for women seeking revenge book, like Out by Natsuo Kirino, Go Down Hard by Ali Seay, or Hooker by M. Lopes da Silva
March 9 - Panic Day
Try some Satanic Panic Reading, like Girls on Fire by Robin Wasserman, The Fourth Whore by EV Knight, or Cirque Berserk by Jessica Guess.
March 10 - International Day of Awesomeness
Read a book you know will be awesome, either by a favorite author or a favorite trope such as Bunny by Mona Awad, Tender Is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica, or Cackle by Rachel Harrison.
March 12 - Plant a Flower Day
Try out some eco-horror, like the anthologies Chlorophobia or Field Notes from a Nightmare or the novels The Seep by Chana Porter or Sorrowland by Rivers Solomon.
March 14 - Pi(e) Day
Try some cooking/ baking horror, like the anthologies Slashertorte or Tales from the Crust, or the poetry collection Lady of the House by Grace E. Reynolds or novel Gingerbread by Helen Oyeyemi
March 15 - Buzzard Day
Try a book about beloved buzzards, like To Be Devoured by Sara Tantlinger or Wake of Vultures by Lila Bowen.
And all of March is Women's History Month, if you need more inspiration.
