Bram Stoker Award Winners

This past weekend the Oscars of the Horror world were given out in Atlanta-- The Bram Stoker Awards.

Here is the link to all of the winners.

This is a good time to remind you all to take stock of your horror collections. When these big genre awards come out, it serves as a reminder to look more closely at your holdings, assessing your strengths and weaknesses.

Specifically, from this year's honorees, the winner for First Novel, Mr. Wicker by Maria Alexander, is a great add for all public libraries.  It was the only book I felt could challenge Bird Box for the win in this category.

See my more general post on how to use awards lists as an RA Tool.

Congrats to all of the winners.
