Reviews

Under Her Eye: v. 2; A Women in Horror Poetry Showcase Edited by Lindy Ryan & Lee Murray, Booklist Starred Review

The Price of a Small Hot Fire

“Schraeder is delving deep into the emotional pain connected with this book, and using the dreamy images of horror — nightmares, realm of unconscious, etc. — drives that grief forward for her readers. This is a painful book to read, but the pain is cathartic and well worth the journey.” ~Joshua Gage, Cemetery Dance Publications

“This insightful collection of horror verse leaves us ruminating on every mother, every fire, every fear, every love, allowing us to reflect and so be nurtured by Schraeder’s work. Read The Price of a Small Hot Fire, and you will likely find yourself agreeing with E.F. Schraeder when they say “Life is full of poetry and horror. It’s up to any of us how closely we choose to look.” Yeva Johnson, Wild Shrew Literary Reviews

Liar: Memoir of a Haunting

“The author has an unrelenting grip on the types of subtexts that resonate in emotion, through and through. We’ve all felt alone. We’ve all felt despair. Schraeder prompts us not only to find these fears once again but face them head on, in a collision surely to inspire more than a few sleepless nights in your near future . . . the author’s depiction of inner alienation and isolation will force even the most jaded and cynical of readers to redefine fear. Suffice to say, the darkest of horror lurk directly within.” -Dave Gammon, Horror News

“a disquieting slow burn tale, full of small town superstition and guardedness, and a startling study of isolation and otherness. Highly recommended.” -Lee Murray, Mini Reviews

As Fast as She Can

“a shocking, pleasantly campy horror read! . . . ’80s era horror comedy with an LGBTQ twist” Anthony Avina
