The 10 Best Sci-Fi/Horror Novels To Add To Your TBR

We encourage our community to share their favourite sci-fi books and take their vote into consideration when we pick our book of the month.
If You Like ‘Goosebumps’ by R. L. Stine Add These Adult Books To Your TBR!
Since the 90s, Goosebumps by R. L. Stine introduced pre-teens to the supernatural and fantastical. Thanks to Stine, his stories were the perfect balance of horror and thriller. The story in each book often mirrored a situation the protagonist was going through. Whether it was grief, trauma or loneliness, the character’s pain would parallel the supernatural events.
If You Like ‘The Fall of the House of Usher’ Add These Books To Your TBR!
If you’re a fan of Edgar Allan Poe then you know about The Fall of the House of Usher. It is one of his most well-known short stories. In one of my film lectures at University, we studied The Fall of the House of Usher and watched how the short story was translated into film. Filmmakers had adapted it as early as 1928 and remade it in the 50s. There have been many iterations, but no one has done the story justice like Mike Flanagan.
If You Like ‘The Exorcist’ Add These To Your TBR!
For years, the film and the novel have been highly regarded as the best of the horror genre. The people who were old enough to read the book and watch the film still talk about the frenzy in the 70s. Everyone was traumatized by The Exorcist.
The film and the book paved the way for horror writers to tell their stories and spook many new audiences for generations. The newest addition to The Exorcist world is The Exorcist: Believer. A film meant to reintroduce new audiences to the work of William Peter Blatty and William Friedkin.
