No matter how many books are in my TBR, I always want more. And I’m not alone.

There aren’t any requirements for being a bookworm, but if there were, searching for books while currently reading a book with full knowledge that you have piles waiting in the wings would definitely be at the top. Besides, it’s not my fault.

Authors keep writing killer books and publishers keep adding them to my favorite retail sites, which means I have to keep buying the books. I may read horror, but I’m not a monster. Those books need homes, and I’m more than willing to provide one.

If you’re like me, you probably are dying to know what is coming down the pike.

Here are nine new horror books releasing this spring that I can't wait to dive into.
