October Coming Attractions

 


Seems like I manage to complete one of these posts every two months.  There's just been a lot going on behind the scenes which I promise I'll explain one of these days.  So, let's jump right in and look at some things you might see on the blog this upcoming Spooky month.  October is one of my favorite months of the year so I'm going to do my best to make it count!


First up are my buddy reads with my friend Stormi of Storm Reads.  I remember reading Watchers as a teen when I was on a huge Koontz kick but remember nothing about it except the dog.  Don't be surprised if you see Domain (Rats #3) show up again in November.  We didn't realize these three books alone are over 1500 pages of reading.


By the time you see this, I've already finished The Haunting of Paynes Hollow.  There is a reason Armstrong is one of my favorite authors.  Look for my 5-paw review soon.  And what is Halloween without a holiday themed slasher?
  

I really hope to get to all three of these.  Murder Most Haunted looks like a Christmas book but I've read the synopsis three times and don't see any indication.  I love Jenn McKinlay and Slayers of Old is too good to pass up.  Plus, tentacles!


And finally, here are some hopefuls.  Maybe it's because I read horror all year long, but I plan for spooky season reads and then when October rolls around, I want to read a Christmas romance.  So I've added Undead and Unwed in here in an attempt to scratch that itch.

Have you read any of these or are any of them on your reading plans?  Let me know your most anticipated read this month in the comments below.

    1. Hoping to read it close to the holiday. I have a friend coming in from out of town for Halloween weekend so I will need to get to it before then because we will be binging on horror movies that weekend.
