Winston and Nova having a super dramatic 🐈 🐈‍⬛ standoff in the background, while you carry on talking about books! 🤣

[@223rajah]

I was gonna mention that! It looked like a stare off!

[@NerdyNatReads]

Good to know on sisters of the lost nation! I’m wanting to use it for a video. Oooo definitely gotta get to Natural Beauty! On reaper, I think I liked it more bc I liked having the multiple POVs. Agreed that El Norte isn’t a horror but I still loved it 😂

[@lotussong_]

What a great video! 1) The Reformatory was my pick for the awards. Something I've learned about myself this year is that I love horror in a historical setting, and this book was so constantly stressful and terrifying that I couldn't pick anything else for best horror. (I absolutely adored Mister Magic, but it was not the best *horror* novel of the year to me.) 2) I agree so much about Sisters of the Lost Nation - being nonlinear actively harmed the story + it felt more like a thriller than a horror. I also gave it 3 stars, but I will be trying his second novel coming out in 2024 (Indian Burial Ground). 3) You've sold me on Natural Beauty, and dissuaded me from Vampires of El Norte (I really don't like romance overall). I hadn't read anyone talk about Natural Beauty but I figured it was going to be non-stop body horror? But I love weird things, and my favorite novel of the year is a "literary horror" (The God of Endings) so I want to give it a shot now!

I love Her Little Flowers, but I completely agree with you. It's not horror. It doesn't belong in horror. It's 100% mismarketed. It's paranormal, but like a cozy paranormal book. I would personally compare it to Practical Magic.

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

Loving the kitty cats featuring ❤❤❤❤

[@Tal.Bibliotek]

I picked up Dead Eleven because of your video and I loved it!!! Thanks!

[@stephaniebookish]

Loved thissss! Also just picked up Natural Beauty and am even more excited to pick it up in January!

[@the_eerie_faerie_tales]

wow everybody seems to love Natural Beauty! I've now been convinced... just ordered it. 😄

[@Melissa-dg9tm]

Merry Christmas Lexie and family 🎄❄️

[@Ms.SpookyNerd]

Great vlog merry Christmas 🎄☕📚⛄🎁

[@halz1114]

I’m so happy you introduced me to horror this year :) excited to read more in 2024!!

[@Sandra.950]

This was interesting and very helpful. I’m still trying to find my taste in horror and now I definitely want to try the ones you placed in the top. The only one I have read of these is The September House.

[@dg_reads]

Excited to get to some more of these!

[@alexandrakeckmontanari5180]

Merry Christmas Lexi I'm ready I hope for 2024 up and down year and going through a reading slump!! Great books and recs 🎄

[@Alicia-606]

Well, now I need to read Natural Beauty.

[@Jonathan-B_]

Holy Crap, Lexie. SO MUCH READING. I'm really gonna have to pick up Natural Beauty I guess. Not surprised at what ended up being last on your list. Was hoping Don't Fear the Reaper would've been a little higher.

[@brittanyjean179]

Okay long videooooo 💅😊 so excited!!

[@bookswithlexie]

Yay!!

[@SuperStrangSshadow]

I read Chasing the Boigeyman and won't read his next one since I didn't like the writing style. Interesting video and merry christmas.🎄

[@stephanierenee7655]

I really want to read Natural Beauty & The Reformatory! My favorites of this top 20 were Black Sheep & Lone Women.

[@ourreadinghour]

my 2024 goal is to try more horror because of how much you seem to enjoy it! natural beauty going to the top of my tbr!

[@CoffeeOverApples]

just found your channel. me: waiting to hear your thoughts on the richard chizmar book you: I can't do this, DNF me: good taste *subscibes*

[@MelLenoreReads]

Woohooo let’s GO

[@bookswithlexie]

Finallyyyyy

[@the_eerie_faerie_tales]

Yes they definitely mismarketed Vampires of El Norte - that is a Western Historical Romance.. with a sprinkling of "horror" .. too bad because that cover is stunning! I rated it 3⭐ I think just because it was not Horror. I don't read Romance but I didn't DNF it, so that's saying something I guess lol.

[@ErinDatema]

I’m eating cherry pie.

[@katrinabrown]

Of course Holly won 😂 I actually like Holly in The outsider! I dnfd mr. Mercedes as well haha and I'm not excited for Holly. I voted for HTSAHH 👻 Pupkin forever ❤️

[@AndreaGReads]

I voted for September House! 🫣😅

[@bookswithlexie]

I'm glad you loved it!!

[@223rajah]

I did not love Her Little Flowers. It was boring and I HATED the romance in it!
