Not much into horror, but really just leaving this comment for the algorithm. How you do t have millions of subscribers and views, I just don't get. Keep up the excellent recommendations!

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Aw your sweet. I don't have the production value to warrant a giant subscriber base. But I enjoy what I do... thanks

[@wilthomas]

if you want thrillers, pretty much anything by s.a. cosby! razorblade tears and blacktop wasteland are amazing

[@zombiehead9163]

Just picked up blacktop wasteland.

[@jamesmitchell2114]

I just completely love all of your reviews. I have bought at least 20 books strictly from your reviews. ❤️🥰

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Yay

[@CriminOllyBlog]

I’ve not tried Tami Hoag, but that one sounds interesting!

[@clubkitten]

Thanks for the recommendations !

[@ChristinaJenkins36]

Just got deeper than the dead from my library. Can’t wait to read it! 📚

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I hope you enjoy

[@AntisocialAuntie]

Definitely going to try a few of these. Thank you for the recommendations!

[@kimo2608]

I am so happy you discovered Tami Hoag! She is my favorite thriller writer and has an extensive backlist [with a new book out later on this year!] . After the deeper than the dead series, I would try "ashes to ashes" or a "thin red line", the 1st books in her other series. I like how she varies the settings of her books, montana, the bayou, minnesota. Lends alot of atmosphere to the stories. Happy reading!

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I appreciate the other recommendations

[@sherryallison5258]

Great video! I’ve added Indian Burial Ground, Missing Clarissa and Deeper than the Dead to my TBR. Hanks for the excellent recommendations!!😊

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I hope you enjoy them

[@josephiyeke8946]

I love these kind of videos! And I was planning on going to our independent book store this weekend, so lots to add to the list.

[@MaduroMan]

I enjoyed the Girl With All the Gifts movie more than the book.

[@melissalang3851]

Would love a dark academia recommends from you!! I adored “If We Were Villains” - I fall into the “you can’t give me enough Shakespeare” so I loved it, esp since I felt it dealt with Shakespearean themes well. It felt like the author had thought about them for a long time. Can’t wait for a dark academia video! Thanks!!

[@TheShadesofOrange]

It definitely seemed like it was written as a love letter to the Bard

[@Roondawg_Valhalla]

Indian burial ground sounds like a banger. I preordered on kindle just now. Im working my way thru wheel of time and im thinking this will be a great palate cleanser for in between books. Thanks for the recs!

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I hope you enjoy it

[@Nina_chitchat]

another great recommendations video. i love thriller especially crime thriller like Tami Hoag - but better to read Chris Carter or Jack Kerley, or even darker imo Mo Hayder also i haven't given YA Thriller a great chance tbh. should try the ones you recommended. in my youth (12-14) i read mostly John Saul and some Stephen King but never really YA thrillers. need to check them out most def as palate cleansers

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Thanks I will check out some of those authors

[@radiatorpasta]

Great video!

[@andrewrobbins1060]

This Book is full of Spiders by David Wong is an awesome horror/cosmic horror/comedic book...John Dies at the End by the same author is also very entertaining. Great video by the way!!!

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Thanks for the rec

[@tonycarel1785]

Another awesome review of some good books. Love your channel, I have taken many of your recommendations and have enjoyed them. Thank you.

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Oh thanks

[@cindywingetbooks]

I also loved This Dark Endeavor 😊 just so you are aware, it's actually part of a duology. The next book is called Such Wicked Intent.

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Oo I didn't realize that. I need to keep reading

[@cindywingetbooks]

@@TheShadesofOrange yes, you do! Lol

[@TiborHorvath-w2g]

You made me check out Indian Burial Ground, looks promising, can't wait to read it. Thanks for the great vid!

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I hope you enjoy it

[@BookishDaddy]

Thank you for the recommendations!!!!

[@tcdewijk3511]

I have loaded the Hoag book onto my Kindle. I enjoy mysteries that are set in a particular time and place.

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I hope you enjoy it

[@amandabarrett7945]

I really liked the movie version of The Girl With All the Gifts

[@christirandazzo3769]

Well, these all look great. I think I’ll be headed to Barnes & Noble’s. Lol

[@leezirkle7840]

There's more than half that I'd like to read

[@SR-no8sr]

I agree with you on execution on BYT. I am currently reading The Quiet Tenant, curious about your thoughts.

[@karinscott4455]

LOVED that! 5 stars.

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I enjoyed that Quiet Tenant. Not greatest thriller but I am easy to please with kidnappings

[@cmmosher8035]

Talking about Indigenous Horror, have you read Bad Cree by Jessica Johns? It is about a young Cree woman forced to return home to confront her past after she begins having dreams that bleed into reality. Sorry if you already covered it.

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Oh yes! I liked that one last year

[@FrankOdonnell-ej3hd]

currently reading Lilith by Eric Rickstad after her son is severely injured in a shooting his enraged mother takes matters in her own hands and extracts some rough justice from gun makers and the pols who allow them to get away with anything including murder ⚛😀

[@karinscott4455]

That sounds awful.

[@orange_octopus_oo]

I'm new to reading horror and fiction in general. I had no idea that there were horror novel series 🤯

[@jansmith9391]

Like this compilation. Also, Bright Young Things was very successful for me. I’m sorry it didn’t make the grade for you

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I'm glad it worked better for you

This dark endeavour :)

[@SuperStrangSshadow]

I miss reading books that scares me. 💀

[@karinscott4455]

I just read A Killer Harvest, and it was quite good. I DNF;d a Tami Hoag once. It was cheap and lazy. I turned to the end to see who done it, and it was of course some rich conservative woman. In California. As if.

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Do you remember the name of that Hoag book?

[@CyraNoavek]

Not a supernatural thriller, but have you read Winter Counts by David Heska Wanbli Weiden. I think you might like it if you are in the mood for a Native American setting mystery.

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Oh yes I loved that thriller

[@zubaerchaudhari8267]

Hello there hey there hey

[@TheBookclectic]

🪦 👻🔎🌹🔪 🎁 💀 🧟‍♂️ 🍂 Oh I loved The Dark Descent Of Elizabeth Frankenstein! I will definitely have to read This Dark Endeavor!👍🏻

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I hope you enjoy it

[@Some-Guy-]

I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with your assessment of The Girl With All the Gifts. I don't think it's entirely in the post-apoc/zombie genre, IMHO this is a book that explores so much more than other zombie stories. Without giving anything away to anyone who hasn't read it yet - I'll just say that the hybrid situation adds dimensions that other stories don't even try to explore. Also, TGWAtG has lines like "You can't save the world. There's nowhere to put it." MRCarey's books have lines that haunt me years after I finish the book. Just my opinion, if you don't like it I'll give you a refund :) I noticed the Peter Watts books aren't visible on your shelf anymore :/

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I always appreciate other opinions. No refund necessary. (Lol) It's hard book to describe without giving away too much so sometimes I default to oversimplified descriptions. And no worry, I didn't break up with Peter Watts. I am working on a video project so they were on my nightstand
