[close] This group is dedicated to an appreciation of important works of literature, both classic and contemporary... that happen to fall into the category of Dark Fiction. We tend to avoid the big, banal blockbusters (and the more lurid fare) in favor of beautifully written explorations of the unknown, many of them obscure, all of them extraordinary. [Note from the Moderator: A couple of years ago, we changed our group name from "Literary Horror" in order to expand our sphere of interests (and dislodge a few embedded trolls). Our enthusiasms embrace Gothic, Weird Fiction, and Noir, as well as much that might be classified as Horror, but we also appreciate literary fiction that cannot be easily fitted into a marketing niche. In fact, this latter group of titles has evolved into our primary focus. Most serious fiction deals (to some extent) with darker themes, and many works of distinction have employed supernatural, surreal or existentialist elements. These books have power. They endure, because they appeal to serious readers and provide thoughtful entertainment. Come. Explore them with us.]

[close] Hello! We are Inge, Aly, Anissa, Wren, and Ely of Of Wonderland, a book blog which mainly celebrates Young Adult and Fantasy. Welcome to #OWBookClub, where we choose monthly themes instead of a single title. These themes can range from genres to more specific prompts, but will always be broad enough to give you some play room. We didn’t want to send you to the bookstore every month, but rather we wanted you to be able to choose a book you may already own. This way, we’re hoping that #OWBookClub is accessible to everyone. On the first of every month, we will put up a blog post to announce the new topic for that month. In that same post, we’ll also add a poll with possible topics for the next month. As a group perk, the theme will be revealed a few days early here. We'll also send you a monthly message to remind you of the new theme and the poll. You call the shots in this group. Happy reading! ♥
