Any genuinely scary books out there?!

I've mentioned it before but Tender is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica is a genuinely disturbing and haunting book. It's not "scary" in a traditional sense but rather horrifying in it's plausibility and execution (pun intended?)

Anyone read THE NEMESIS SAGA by Jeremy Robinson, six part kaiju action series?

Am considering it for my next popcorn fix. Informed opinions welcome.

I'm finding myself disengaged with Castle in the Air (Howl's #2). I know that it's more of a shared universe situation than an actual sequel to Howl's but I was hoping that it would capture some of the same feeling of magic. Have any of you read this? I'm trying to gauge if it's likely to improve orif I should move on to something else.

Do any of Garth Nix's books hold up if read as an adult?

I tried to read them as an adult for the first time, and they were not for me.

I found a bunch of his Abhorsen books in a charity shop so I'm planning on reading them at some point. I never read them while younger so I have no nostalgia for them. I'm going to approach them as an easy and possibly fun palate cleanser.
