About this Event

8/29: Ann Arborville Horror Book Club

Join us at Booksweet for our next Horror Book Club! Get ready to dive into chilling thrillers, discuss your favorite creepy stories old and new, and connect with fellow horror lovers. Whether you're a seasoned horror reader or just starting to explore the genre, this club is the perfect place to celebrate the macabre.

For this gathering, we'll discuss The Hollow Places by T. Kingfisher (a Booksweet book club favorite author!). We'll meet on Friday, August 29 from 7-8pm.

Your Eventbrite RSVP is super helpful to our planning!

About the book //

A young woman discovers a strange portal in her uncle’s house, leading to madness and terror in this gripping new novel from the author of the “innovative, unexpected, and absolutely chilling” (Mira Grant, Nebula Award–winning author) The Twisted Ones.Pray they are hungry.Kara finds the words in the mysterious bunker that she’s discovered behind a hole in the wall of her uncle’s house. Freshly divorced and living back at home, Kara now becomes obsessed with these cryptic words and starts exploring this peculiar area—only to discover that it holds portals to countless alternate realities. But these places are haunted by creatures that seem to hear thoughts…and the more one fears them, the stronger they become.With her distinctive “delightfully fresh and subversive” (SF Bluestocking) prose and the strange, sinister wonder found in Guillermo del Toro’s Pan’s Labyrinth, The Hollow Places is another compelling and white-knuckled horror novel that you won’t be able to put down.

So... what's this book club like? //

This is our sixth horror book club! We hope to invite a group of people who have read the book (or don't mind a spoiler) to discuss their thoughts. We will bring prompts but invite anyone to pose a question or share their thoughts!

After our book discussion, the group votes on the next session's read. Feel free to pitch a horror or thriller you've enjoyed recently or want to read with the group.

While we will have water and light refreshments (including nut-free and gluten-free options), Booksweet is located in The Courtyard Shops, filled with AMAZING dining options. Food and drinks are totally welcome at the meet-up; don't feel shy about sipping boba while we chat!

We hope to see you there!
