    If you want a creepy book I definitely recommend "Shutter Island" by Dennis Lehane. It's a great psychological thriller about two policemen who try to investigate a missing persons case on an island for the criminally insane, except things start to happen and... will have to leave it at that! Such a trippy read, but if you're not up to the book then you can always watch the movie, it has Leonardo DiCaprio in it and is also very good.

      I've seen the movie but haven't read the book yet!

    I just finished The Troop by Nick Cutter. Very creepy and not what I expected. I read The Library at Mount Char based on your recommendation and really enjoyed it. Great vid, Emily!

    • @BookswithEmilyFox
      @BookswithEmilyFox  Před 7 lety +1

      The troop is already on my TBR! I'm waiting to find it used somewhere :D
      The Library at Mount Char is such a tough sale but a lot of people end up liking it!

  • @MusingsofaCat10
    @MusingsofaCat10 Před 7 lety +17

    I'd recommend The Butterfly Garden! I just read it recently and loved it :)

  • @jessreadscards
    @jessreadscards Před 7 lety +4

    I definitely recommend The Witch's Daughter and the sequel, The Return of the Witch both by Paula Brackston! Same with A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness. As you can tell, I love witch books...lol. Recently I read Frankenstein, The Magicians, and Stalking Jack the Ripper which are all fantastic books to read during the fall time.

    The movie It is soooo worth it! I am TERRIFIED of clowns. like, I have anxiety attacks thinking about them. and I loved the movie. can not wait until Chapter Two! I also got the audio book. and some of the language and words make me so uncomfortable. but I’ll eventually finish it.

    • @BookswithEmilyFox
      @BookswithEmilyFox  Před 7 lety +1

      I never watched the first movie so I never understood why people were scared of clowns lol Maybe it will change now!

    • @qwertymanova2652
      @qwertymanova2652 Před 5 lety

      I didn't find it scary,but enjoyable and intricate

  • @RiverArmada
    @RiverArmada Před 7 lety +9

    Stephen King definitely has an issue ending his novels. The only book of his that I have felt satisfied with is "Needful Things." It is very much in the vein of classic Twilight Zone. Definitely creepy and riveting with the perfect ending.

    • @BookswithEmilyFox
      @BookswithEmilyFox  Před 7 lety +1

      Thanks for the recommendation I'll try to get my hands on it!! :D

    • @veronicapurro1519
      @veronicapurro1519 Před 6 lety +1

      Oh yeah Needful Things may be my favorite book written by Stephen King, I DEVOURED it even if... Stephen King’s books don’t really scare me or creep me out so I was kinda rooting for the bad guy. The last one hundred pages were just really funny to me and I know this isn’t the classic thing you should expect from a horror book but, like I said, I’ve never read something that made me feel anxious or scared so that’s probably a personal problem. But I agree the ending was really good.

  • @laynaaa
    @laynaaa Před 7 lety +3

    I'm reading the Long Walk right now and I really, really like it. Thank you for recommending it! The other day I was so tired after work, having to stand/walk all day, but I reminded myself of the book and thought 'pff, I'm not tired at all! I got to sit for about an hour and a half' lol The Running Man is next to be read. Xx

  • @Allison-kq3zc
    @Allison-kq3zc Před 7 lety +1

    Because of you Emily my reading list keeps on getting longer and longer, but I have to say that I love your books recommendation. I wish all the books you talk about in your videos were translated in Italian. I usually read before bed and if I read in English my brain doesn’t shut down and relax as if I was reading in Italian. But it doesn’t matter cause I love your videos and an untranslated book will not stop me from reading 😂🙈😘

  • @user-ie9gq5hr4j
    @user-ie9gq5hr4j Před 5 lety +9

    Pet Sematary by Stephen King. Super terrifying and creepy. Highly recommend.

  • @samanthagiffin203
    @samanthagiffin203 Před 7 lety +1

    I completely agree with you about The Library at Mount Char. I read a library e-book of it and, immediately after finishing, I went out and bought myself a copy. It was bizarre and a little disturbing but written in such a way that I was constantly compelled to keep reading. Would also recommend this book.

  • @AshtheViking
    @AshtheViking Před 7 lety +4

    Yes, I definitely recommend the movie IT. Also that scene, you know the scene, doesn't exist so the ending isn't ruined.

    • @BookswithEmilyFox
      @BookswithEmilyFox  Před 7 lety +2

      I really don't think anyone would have liked the movie if that scene had been included lol

    "This is one of the weirdest books I've ever read."

    Yes, Emily. Yes, IT DOES.

  • @nutshell93

    The way you described The Long Walk gave me It Follows vibes for some reason so I'm definitely going to check that book out.

    • @BookswithEmilyFox
      @BookswithEmilyFox  Před 7 lety

      I don't think it's similar but I'm still traumatized by that movie lol
      I don't think was "good" per se but seeing it alone a night was a really bad idea haha

  • @halogamerghost97
    @halogamerghost97 Před 6 lety

    I’d recommend reading the Escape from Furnace book series, because it’s my favorite horror book series due to how it’s the first horror book series I read and how it always sends chills up my spine as well as the unique perspective the author gives on the juvenile prison system

    @Sarlocked Před 7 lety

    If you're looking for good thrillers, I would recommend you the books by the german author Sebastian Fitzek. But I'm not sure if they're all available in English and/or French. (Or if the translations are any good) But he wrote some really creepy books and they really go deep into the psyche of people, so ... I enjoy them especially in the fall months. Thanks for your recommendations (I always have a Goodreads Tab open while watching your videos and afterwards my "want to read"-list has grown).

  • @martyfree2389
    @martyfree2389 Před 6 lety

    I read a couple of good books lately one is called madness burns by stevie kopas it's a series of short horror stories and was very good. My last read which I finished 2 weeks ago was an ebook I downloaded called the undesirable encounter by toby torrance. This one is a full length novel based in the English countryside. It's one of the freakiest stories I read in my life.

  • @jazmynesimington7773

    I actually hated the movie It, it was so boring and I didn't like any of the characters at all, though I just don't think I like movies/series that follow a group of middle graders since I never liked Stranger Things either. It's seems to be only me and my friends whom think It is one of the worst movies ever.
    Oooh I need to read Bird Box, sounds really intriguing. I just got Her Every Fear from the library, sounds like it's going to be good.

    Extra creepy that people were creeping on you while you filmed your creepy recommendations...
