IndieReader Recognizes Suburban Monsters with “Approved” Review and Interview

IndieReader recently added Suburban Monsters to their list of Best Reviewed Books for the month of January. This chilling collection of horror short stories received 4.8 stars out of five, a near-perfect score, and puts it in a place alongside the other great independently-published books that have earned their “IR Approved” designation.



Here’s a sampling of what they had to say:

“Each of the stories in SUBURBAN MONSTERS is a masterful exercise in building tension and creating a sense of unease, as author Christopher Hawkins delves into the dark, twisted inner lives of characters who may not be all they seem.”

“Across thirteen tales of terror, Hawkins creates haunting, surrealistic narratives exploring themes of isolation, fear, and the unknown.”

“Throughout SUBURBAN MONSTERS, Hawkins employs rich, descriptive prose with vivid and haunting imagery that heightens the sense of tension and unease in the stories, making them all the more immersive and chilling. Whether it’s the fear of the unknown lurking in the woods or within oneself, Hawkins conveys his themes with evocative imagery and a flair for creating an eerie atmosphere.”

You can read the full review over on their website.

Along with the great review, they’ve posted a conversation with me as part of their IndieReader Approved interview series. You can read all about it here.
