Locus Amoenus: All By My Shelf

I'm in! This should be fun: my favorite holiday and two of my favorite genres!

Horror or Mystery?

BOTH!

Although lately, I've had a harder time finding good horror. I prefer creepy, unexplainable events style horror to slasher stories; in fact, the less violence the better. It's scarier when it's implied, and just at the edges of one's peripheral vision.

For mysteries, I like old-fashioned whodunnits (Christie!) or cozies (there's a great series I read based around a cross stitch store, whose title I can't remember at the moment).
