I've read almost all of these and loved every single one, especially The Boatman's Daughter, one of my fave novels ever! Fantastic list! The books recommended to you sound good, too!
Just found your channel. Thanks for the recommendations. Definitely going to read these books. Sadly Worst Laid Plans is already out of print, according to Amazon. Hopefully, it will be available again.
Appreciate you watching! The editor for Worst Laid Plans had some personal issues in her life and took down all her books from Amazon. I think she is back now and they are slowly coming back into print with various publishers.
Great list Brad! I've only read The Elementals, but would love to add most of these on my tbr list. I have heard that the Blackwater series is insanely good!
Thanks, Cliff! I'd been wanting to read The Elementals forever and finally got to it a year or so ago. I definitely need to read more from McDowell and the Blackwater series sounds like it is his epic.
Love your channel, I subscribed. You have great taste in horror. My tbr just exploded, thanks!😂 Btw, the only one I've read is the Elementals, one of my fav books. The Black water books have been on my tbr forever also! Just can't find them anywhere unless I spend an arm and a leg lolxx
Thanks, Angel! Exploding TBR's should be my mission statement haha. The Elementals was a fantastic read. I'm excited to finally start the Blackwater series hopefully sometime soonish. All of his books are hard to find. I was lucky and got an audiobook copy of Blackwater.
Great video! I own Jedi Summer. My copy came from Sadie's horror box a few years ago and has a longer title: Jedi Summer with the Magnetic Kid. I've now pulled it from my shelves to read this summer.
Thanks, Josée! I have that same copy from the Night Worms package too. As far as I know the contents inside are all the same just has the original title. I really hope you enjoy it. John Boden is an amazing writer.
I've only read Ghost Summer by Tananarive Due out of this list of books. I loved it but then again I love short story collections. I want all of these books that you've listed.
Dude! what a rad video, Brad! I love summer horror so I must recommend a couple!😁🤘 The Kill River trilogy by Cameron Roubique is quintessential summer horror!😃🔪 The Forgotten Island by David Sodergren and The Ruins by Scott Smith are both classic tales of vacation gone very, very wrong. I seriously love those books! Summer of Fear by Louis "I Know What You Did Last Summer" Duncan is a super fun YA horror! And, let's not forget The Lifeguard by Richie Tankersley Cusick, a fun 90’s YA horror! So much summertime goodness! 😃🤘☀️🔪
Thanks, Russell! I just started The Ruins a day or so ago. They just made it into the jungle so things are about to go bad soon I am pretty sure. The Kill River books have been on my radar for a while now. I read Roubique's Disco Deathtrap a few years back and had fun with it. The other books you mentioned I'll need to be sure and check out, especially Forgotten Island. Hope you enjoy your summer reads man!
@@BradProctorReads Awesome! I'm glad that you're reading The Ruins! Actually, wasn't that in one if your book haul videos where you'd found some books at a thrift store or a library sale or something? It's so great! Things are about to get pretty dark!Disco Deathtrap does look really fun! I'd like to read it one day. 😊😊 Thank you! I wish you spooky fun summer reading too!😃👻
@@BradProctorReads And it only gets worse! I felt so bad for them! I hope you do a video for it but if not I'd love to hear your thoughts on the book as a whole! Oh, it'll be in your monthly wrap up, duh! Haha! Happy Tuesday!😄😄

The Boatman's Daughter was such an amazing book. I need to read more from Davidson.
That was a great episode. I've just added five books to my TBR list.
Thanks, Ron! My mission is accomplished if you have added some of these to your TBR lol.
Cool, I've built a new bookshelf just for indie horror books. Looks like I'll be getting some of these.
I'm in desperate need of another bookshelf. I have stacks of books taking over the floor in my office lol.
@@BradProctorReads I've just converted my cellar into a new office, so I have plenty of bare shelves. Not a bad problem to have...
Not a bad problem to have at all.

@@BradProctorReads Thanks, looking forward to it!
I've only read Ghost Summer by Tananarive Due out of this list of books. I loved it but then again I love short story collections. I want all of these books that you've listed.
I just checked it out from my library today. I've never read anything from Due so I'm looking forward to it.

Awesome list! Many of these I still need to get to.
I got so many recommendations for books that I need to get to. I just need more time to read them all lol.
@@BradProctorReads seriously! 😩
Great list
Thanks!
