Top Ten Tuesdays is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl!

This week was a Halloween freebie!

I decided to search up “cozy horror” on Goodreads and pick ones with red and black covers. While I cannot vouch for the cleanliness of any of the romance books, I have looked them up on Romance.io, and at the most there is closed door, so take that as you will 🙂

    I almost never read horror these days, but when I do it’s generally cozy horror. 🙂

      Same! The closest I get to horror typically are creepy pastas and other audio media like that. Luckily, there seem to be quite a lot of cozy reads for this season as well.
      Thank you for visiting as always Lydia!

    Death by Dumpling looks like a fun cozy mystery.

    I am not a horror reader. I have not heard of any of these. Have a great week!

● About Me

Hello! I am Ashley and I simply love to read, and hope you do to!
I am currently 29 years old and living in the state of Texas, USA.

My favorite genres to read and review include romance, fantasy, mystery, and many subgenres of those as long as it is clean. I mainly get my books from my Kindle Unlimited membership, but I also found myself checking out library books on Libby as well.

As you can see, I do not solely post book reviews, I also love posting daily prompt writing, as well as stuff that is going on in my life currently. That being said, my passion is reading and reviewing books to my heart’s content, so hopefully that is something you are also interested in.

I do have a Goodreads where you can follow if you desire (no pressure!) I also have a StoryGraph, of which you can follow me here.
