I don't know what it was about 2024 but for me it was the year of the scary mushroom. I love having a nonbinary mc and how normal it feels. Fall of the House of Usher is one of my favorite Poe works, and I have a high bar for adaptations for it after falling in love with Mike Flanagan's Netflix series. What moves the dead does a great job of conveying gothic moodiness, body horror. I think it also does a great job of implementing Easton's PTSD into the situation they face. Short, horrific, and fun, once you can get past the slower setup you're in for a good time. 4/5

This is the only review I’ve written after seeing other people’s interpretation of a book and I think some folks are just kind of missing the point?

The main themes of this book are addiction, loss, and manipulation. The protagonist and secondary characters morals are intentionally superficial. I don’t think they’re meant to be “likable.” 

This story gives its characters and readers false hope throughout and it’s crushing. Are there a few plot beats that get dropped? For sure. But it’s also got nasty mushrooms and ghosts so. Ya know, not too bad. 3/5

Read my first T. Kingfisher book this year, Thornhedge. I have a few of their other books, and I'll probably go through their back catalogue soon. What Moves The Dead, a retelling of Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher, has me particularly intrigued.

This has gotten mixed reviews and yeah it’s predictable and not that scary, but I really enjoyed the atmosphere and had fun reading it

⭐️4/5 stars🐇🍄‍🟫

Very behind on my reading goals, but finished #WhatMovesTheDead by T. Kingfisher. Inventive retelling of Poe's 'House of Usher' that adds an intriguing new element to the famous story. Subtle, & manages to respect original while making it her own. Recommended reading. 4/5🍄

I often find myself thinking of T. Kingfisher’s Sworn Soldier series and how much I adore the character of Alex Easton.

Please let What Stalks the Deep be longer and give us more time w/ Alex and co. 🙏🐇🐴🦑

#Reading #WhatFeastsAtNight, a sequel to #WhatMovesTheDead. I don't remember the first volume being so terribly slow in moving the plot.

First book of 2025! Happy New Year's, folks! This was a fun read and it's a quick story. For a Poe fanfiction, I say it's a classic! Published in 2020, this story is so freaking good. Also mushrooms are cool, I agree Miss Potter #whatmovesthedead #tkingfisher #horror #fungus #houseofusher #books

Pues ya he terminado #WhatMovesTheDead. Ha estado bien, tiene vibes de capitulo de serie sobrenatural de Monster of the week. Los personajes tienen encanto, y el monstruo está bien, pero no te cambia la vida.
Ahora me toca esperar (Im)pacientemente al 24 de diciembre que sale #HeavenlyTirant *^*
