#HorrorForLibraries Giveaway: 4 Book Creature Publishing Prize Pack Including a NEW Gwendolyn Kiste Novella

Today I have a four book prize pack, for one winner, from Creature Publishing, including one book I reviewed for Booklist Online back in June and a new Gwendolyn Kiste for which I have turned in a review and have extensive notes for here. To learn more about Creature Publishing click here as they were my featured small press for 31 Days of Horror in 2025. [Side note: I am compiling the essays for this year's featured publisher right now.] Details below but first, here are the rules on how to enter:

1. You need to be affiliated with an American Library. My rationale behind that is that I will be encouraging you to read these books and share them with patrons. While many of them are advanced reader copies that you cannot add to your collections, if you get the chance to read them, my hope is that you will consider ordering a copy for your library and give away the ARC away as a prize or pass it on to a fellow staff member.
2. If you are interested in being included in any giveaway at any time, you must email me at zombiegrl75 [at] gmail [dot] com with the subject line "#HorrorForLibraries." In the body of the email all you have to say is that you want to be entered and the name of your library.
3. Each entry will be considered for EVERY giveaway. Meaning you enter once, and you are entered until you win. I will randomly draw a winner on Fridays sometime after 5pm central. But only entries received by 5pm each week will be considered for that week. I use Random.org and have a member of my family witness the "draw"based off your number in the Google Sheet.
4. If you win, you are ineligible to win again for 4 weeks; you will have to re-enter after that time to be considered [I have a list of who has won, when, and what title]. However, if you do not win, you carry over into the next week. There is NO NEED to reenter.

The last winner was from Molly from GA. Now on to this week's giveaway. 

I have four ARCs for one winner from Creature Publishing. Again, to learn more about them, click here to see the feature I did on this small press last October, including Why I Love Horror essays by some of the authors included here.

Of the four books I am giving away, I have written Booklist reviews for two of them. As I mentioned  above, one is live already and the other is being published next month. 

First up, Witches of the Wheel by Lindsay Merbaum. Click here to access my review and detailed notes. But to give you a quick taste, here are my three words that describe this book: conversational storytelling, atmospheric, lesbians/goddesses/ witches

Next up, In These Gilded, Ghostly Hearts by Gwendolyn Kiste. I have turned in the review but it is not live yet. However, you can still access my detailed notes here. And, one the review is live, I will link to it on the blog in that Goodreads review. Here are my three words that describe this book: book about a book, immersive and visceral, reclaiming forgotten women (especially discarded daughters). 

The other two books for which I am giving ARCs away to this one lucky reader are The Patron Saint of White Menageries by Lauren T. Davila and Woodfeast by Meg Ripley. I highly recommend all 4 titles.

And in my October column for LJ I will have one more Creature title to highlight and give away. Here is a preview of that.

But for now, 4 books for one winner. 

Thank you to Creature for the ARCs.

Coming up in a few weeks I have a finished, hard cover copy of Ellen Datlow's latest anthology (to be paired with 2 other anthology ARCs) and so much more. 

Enter now and you are entered going forward. 

Good luck!
