May update: New reviews and Spring into Terror

We here at MonsterLibrarian.com are pleased to announce the fourth annual “Spring into Terror” horror book review event. Starting on May 1st, outstanding horror fiction review sites will come together to create a virtual guide to titles that will keep readers up at night.

“Spring into Terror” is an excellent way for librarians to get acquainted with horror genre titles both mainstream and small press.  The event provides a tool to help librarians with reader’s advisory and collection development as well as become familiar with online review resources for what can be a challenging genre.

Each participating review site will have a project page dedicated to reviews of horror genre books that links to the other participating sites’ review pages. We will also be including a list of book recommendations that can be paired with horror movies to promote reading horror.

Participating sites in this year’s project include MonsterLibrarian.com, Horrorworld, Hellnotes, Horror Fiction Review, and Spooky-Reads. Each site will be updating their page and reviews throughout the month so remember to visit often.
