I am Electronica Babe, or Liz or Izzy or Elle or whatever you feel like calling me. :YAS: Give me all the nicknames! I am 23 and going to a university. Heading towards my Bachelors of Fine arts; Emphasis in drawing and painting.

I think it's pretty obvious that I love to read. Duh. Haha. I like to read: Paranormal, Romance, YA, Horror, Ghosts, Psychological, Dark, NA. I have to be in the mood for: Fantasy and Contemporary. I do have my own Guild called Readers Anonymous, it's a monthly book club on gaia. :muchfun:

Other than read I like to binge watch Netflix, eat nachos, hang out with friends, hookah, draw for fun, thrift shopping, drink, be nerdy, go to the beach, and play outside with my two dogs.

Welcome to the guild! biggrin I'm so glad that you joined us! I read most of what you read except for the Horror and darker genres. Do you have any recs for someone that hasn't dabbled in those genres? I'm always willing to try something new.

YES! I have many recommendations. I am always looking for more people wanting to try this genre. It's hard to find people. Which means I can't find anyone to fangirl with. :sadface:
I have many to recommend, I'll put them down below. I tried to not put two with similar plots, so people can explore different "types".

Willing Captive by Belle Aurora
Now this book isn't really "dark". But it deals with kidnapping and fear of the unknown (in a way).

A Letter to my Captor by Lucy Christopher
Kidnapping with some Stockholm syndrome.

The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan
Reality of what a zombie apocalypse would be like. Not idealized. Similar to The Road.

Dirty Angel by Karina Halle
Forced into an abusive relationship who is a leader in the drug cartel. Fear and some torture.

Dark house by Karina Halle
Ghosts, possible demons. Things to fuel your nightmares.

The Devouring by Simon Holt
Demons. I jumped a few times.

Fearscape by Nenia Campbell
Psychotic relationship turns to abuse. Then cat and mouse chase. Killer.
