Reading Spooky Thrillers For A Week | Reading Vlog
In today's video I read spooky thriller books for a week. With spooky season coming to a close, I wanted to read some spooky thrillers that fit the mood. Reading thrillers is something I'm new too, so this was an exciting, thrilling week. Stick around to see which books I read, and what I thought about them. Thank you for stopping by!

Watching him starting to breathe faster and slightly panic because of the book is so relatable.
Hidden Pictures is what got me into horror/thriller vibes! I absolutely loved that book! I can’t recommend it enough! The plot twist and pictures were CRAZY!!!
The intimate reading associates is epic 😂😂
the spooky music made this video that much better, love it!!!

Thank you! It took days to find the right music for this project.
It was great to watch someone else read Hidden Pictures. All of your reactions made me smile. If you want one with twists and cliffhangers at the end of each chapter, you should read “The One” by John Marrs.

You and Ashlynn do what you need to do to be happy and take care of yourselves. Not only that, but it’s YOUR damn channels, nobody elses. You guys still make me want to start my own channel…maybe after the holidays. Finally, been waiting to chat with ya about this-FINALLY finished “The Stand” last week. And I’ll probably have people making my image into voodoo dollars after this, lol, but I LIKED it, didn’t love it. It had a major plot hole over something for me, and I felt the ending was tied up too fast. Which, as it was the extended version, I’m sure Sai King was like “Please, Lord take the wheel, pen, typewriter,” and was just thrilled to be done with it. I gave the plot three stars, the characters though-10 put of 5! I loved me some Trashy and Tom Cullen lol

The chestnut man by Soren sviestrop is sooo good. Was a 4.5 for me. I listened to the audiobook a few years ago and immediately had to buy the physical copy so that I could keep it forever.
Rock paper scissors was so amazing. Not many thriller can get to me. But it was one of very few of them Also Daisy Darker by Alice Feeney was such a great thriller too. You may get attached to characters which is rare in a thirller book.
So fun to watch your reactions to these books, I have Dark Matter in my TBR and really hope I can squeeze it in soon. As I mentioned in Ash's video when she read Rock, Paper, Scissors, I'd like to recommend you read Daisy Darker also by that author, I had a blast with it 😊

Awesome creepy soundtrack with this one!! I read Rock, Paper, Scissors a couple of months ago, and it kept me reading, but in the end, I still hated all the characters in it. I think there were too many obvious holes and too many twists for me to give it a decent rating. I'm looking forward to reading Dark Matter soon because I've read a lot of his other works and highly recommend his Wayward Pines series. And now I need to check out Hidden Pictures as it sounds like it right up my alley! 😊 Ty!

Hidden Pictures has been on my TBR for so long lol, yet I never seem to get to it. As I said on the video where Ashlynn read Dark Matter, I wish I'd heard your summary of it before I read it. I already knew the twist and didn't realize that it was supposed to be a twist until halfway through the book. I think I'd have liked it so much better not knowing, though admittedly spoilers are not usually an issue for me. Love your energy and your videos, definitely subscribing.

Just found your channel and binged a few. I’ve agreed with your ratings/comments for the ones I’ve seen so far (LOTR, GOT, Atlas Shrugged, Fahrenheit 451, HP series). Of the three on this video, I’ve only read ‘Hidden Pictures’ and this is the first time I slightly disagree with you. I thought a lot of it was boring and would have rated it a little bit lower. But I do also hate the whole miscommunication thing in books and agree that that side plot wasn’t necessary.
I was on the fence about picking up Dark Matter but you convinced me!

I couldn't stand Rock Paper Scissors. A common theme with psych thriller writers is the hint at the supernatural and there never actually is anything supernatural going on at all. At least Hidden Pictures owned the supernatural element and went with it. I love Blake Crouch, you should read ALL his books (except Upgrade maybe). Like Wayward Pines was WILD
You are braver then I would ever be.

I knew it! I knew we were best friends... Thanks for confirming in the beginning of the video. I just thought maybe I was being a bit stalkerish but I guess we really are beaties. 😂 So I started reading again the start of Jan. 2022. Rock Paper Scissors was my first 5 star read that year which was in May... I read 52 books that year so it took a bit to get my 1st 5 star. Well anyways I only know that from going back and seeing what I gave this book because I have zero recollection of it now. Lol I'm not a fan of rereads because there are so many books I haven't read yet but I may see if I can get the audio to this and listen to it while I work... Audios aren't reading... remember. Lol so for me technically it wont be a reread. Lol I think the sad point here is it's only been 1.5 years and I don't remember a great book. A mind is a terrible thing to waste. 😢 So I read Dracula by Bram Stoker which was amazing... I read The Ruins by Scott Smith which was good. I saw the movie so kind of ruined it for me. No pun intended. I'm finishing Ghost Story by Peter Straubs today (really good) and The Terror (pretty good so for) by Dan Simmons should be finished sometime this week. That will wrap up my spooky season reads. Pretty good month not many books but 3 of them were chunckers for my reading speed. All that to say The Pariah and Jade City are on deck and I will let you know what I thought... Why? Not because I have no life and live in this fantasy world where you really care but because we are best friends and I know you really wanna know my take on them. Lol Ok brother have a blessed day and I need to finish the rest of your video. I may be back for more comments.

Still have Jade City to read after that. Ahhh oh and 70% thru The Terror... So still have that to finish as well... Ugh... After these 3 books I'm going to take a break from the chunkers. Maybe a nice 250 page western or cozy mystery. 😂 Ok done rambling. Take care my friend.
I wanted to to pick up Hidden Pictures but idk If it's for me

It’s definitely a good cross between horror and thriller. It’s just very suspenseful, I’ll put it that way!!
