Classics are a bit hard on my ADHD but I love to read a good Stephen King, Dean Koontz, or Gillain Flynn thriller/horror in October. I’ve even found some decently spooky YA for when I need a really easy read. This year, I’m on the hunt for some kind of sci-fi horror. I find that googling subgenres is a great way to find recommendations because people tend to be more passionate about a smaller niche
Since no one else has mentioned it: Shin Godzilla. While I’m happy to watch some goofy movie about giant monsters punching each other as well, this movie brings Godzilla to his roots as an allegory for disasters. The movie was apparently influenced by the 2011 earthquake/tsunami and Fukushima nuclear accident as well as the classic Hiroshima/Nagasaki reference that inspired the original Godzilla. To top it all off, it was directed by the creator of Evangelion.
