What is my style of booktube? A booktube identity, as it were. A really good question to which I ask: is horror a style? I mean, on the surface level you could say there is a horror aesthetic that many fans embrace, and skulls often find their place in our decor. Horror novels and being a horror reader may not, however, be as obvious – especially when our bookshelves when only containing books look a lot like any other genre fan.

So, for a little fun thinkpiece, we delve into six questions about what sort of booktube channel we have here.

Questions discussed here are::

1. What do you want your channel to be known for?
2. What content will people find on your channel?
3. What is the most represented genre of books?
4. What book are you known for championing?
5. What author is regularly featured on your channel?
6. What can people expect in the future? (reveal some exciting plans)
7. Tag people and state ‘what you know them for?’. (wherein I just leave this an open tag)

I talk horror books; extreme horror, classic, slasher, gothic, and everything in between. Helping you find the next best horror book to read is the goal, and sharing new and old horror from my shelves and new releases is how! Horror, nonfiction and even true crime can be found here as I find that human beings are the scariest thing of all.

✮ Thank you! ✮
