It's a new month which means it's time to share my June reads! Thoughts below!

The Only Good Indians: Okay, wow. This book was INsane. It was horrific, sad, and beautiful all at once. All things that, imo, make a great horror story. At its heart this is a story about love, revenge, and vengeance, and it's wrapped up in a box of creepiness, chills down your spine, and brutality. The older I get the more I love a tale about a woman's revenge. Absolutely recommend this book to fellow horror fans! However, if you're squeamish about animal harm I would really look at other reviews first to see if it's something you'd enjoy

Six Scorched Roses: Yet another novella in the Crowns of Nyaxia universe! This story delves into Lilith and her tale, and how she and Vale crossed paths. I've praised the lore and world building for this series multiple times for good reason! I LOVE this world! Lilith's story is quite sad. I really enjoyed reading this!

Hunted: If you like thriller/horror movies with dumbass kids being the main characters (they're technically college age but to me that's still a kid LOL) then check this one out!! A young woman goes missing in a big ass old ass forest and her friends try to find her since the police aren't doing much. But there's something else in the woods messing with them while they search. This book is told from multiple perspectives - the kids and the detective - and it's really great. Personally I didn't see the big twist at the end coming! This was a fun, creepy, tense read!

The Manor House: Pretty sure I got whiplash reading this book! There were SO many twists and turns it was hard to keep up sometimes! If you like twisty thrillers, characters with little to no redeeming qualities, and a wild ride all around, this book is for sure for you!

Dragon Queens: My sapphic heart! Since it was pride month I couldn't NOT read something like this! Honestly I loved this one haha, it was like a tropey Shrek with lesbians and it was a lot of fun. VERY spicy, however! If you aren't a fan of smut then do not read this book - there's a lot of it! It was sweet, hot n' heavy, with a happy ending. A great palette cleanser book!

The Deep: Technically I have 1hr left of this book but I wanted to include it anyway! After reading The Troop earlier this year this book has been on my tbr. Nick Cutter is great at writing unsettling themes, horror, body horror, and diving into different types of character psyches. In this book there's an illness attacking and killing humans, and after a discovery they think the cure is at the bottom of the ocean. VERY creepy stuff in here. Deep dark water freaks me out any ways, and this is the epitome of deep and dark. Insanity comes easy and no one is immune to it. Once I finish this book for real I will report back! So far though, I'm really liking it!

Overall it was a great month of books and I recommend all of these!
