*Book Blogger Hop* Novel Recommendations (October 18)



We are on to a new week for the Book Blogger Hop hosted by the lovely folks over at Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer. This weeks questions is: 

What novel would you recommend that blends characteristics of your favorite genre with horror concepts, and why? (submitted by Billy @ Coffee Addicted Writer)

So my favorite genre is horror so...I guess I'll have to go with my second favorite genre, which is probably science fiction. For that, I'd definitely recommend Dark Matter, which I guess should kind of be a given with that title. The plot of Dark Matter relies pretty heavily on Schrodinger's cat theory thing, and how you would get back to your universe if another version of you had switched places with you to steal your life. It's kind of horrifying to think about, right? My book club had a pretty interesting conversation about this one. 

What about you? What book would you recommend from your favorite genre that blends characteristics with horror concepts?

  1. Oh that sort of thing always creeps me out when someone/something else masquerades as you and basically plans to take over your life and then no one believes you're the real you! I don't know how to explain it, but it does terrify me even when I'm just reading about it! lol.

    Thanks for visiting my BBH!
