On audiobook I'm working through "Sundial" by Catriona Ward, which I'd class as horror, with a heavy focus on toxic family dynamics. Too soon for me to make a judgement yet, but I will say the author has done a great job with the interactions between characters so far.

On paper I'm on "The Monster Baru Cormorant," sequel to "The Traitor Baru Cormorant" and I continue to be riveted! I can't wait to see how this story ends.

Is Sundial domestic horror?

I think it could be classified that way! Most of the horror presently does come from the characters themselves, with a hint at a minor supernatural element (which may not be supernatural after all).

Hmmmm maybe I should pick it up then, I want to read more domestic horror!
