Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by The Artsy Read Girl.
Each week features a book related topic to spotlight your Top Ten.
Topic:
Halloween Reads
I will admit it....I don't read horror style books, I don't watch horror movies either. Hocus Pocus is right up my alley for Halloween Movies. My husband wishes otherwise, but oh well.
Now, I love a good mystery that make you jump and be surprised, but I just can't do crazy creepy. However, if it is a good criminal thriller, I'm your girl.
Here are some books I think are perfect for this time of year.

It's a dark setting, very mysterious based on one of the wonders of the world.

This is a gothic style series. So much suspense and unknown.
by J.K. Rowling
Just fun in general and Halloween is featured.

It's a very dark and grisly series of sorts, but is so well told.
by Abigail Wilson
Gothic style stories. Written with mystery and similar to Jane Eyre.

Historically accurate and a bit of a darker story. Very gripping.
What books do you like to read this time of year?

Same. I like a story that sends shivers down my spine but doesn't give me horrible nightmares. I've only read one of the books you listed—I'll have to give some of the others a go.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
Pretty much the same! And...Jaime Jo Wright made my list this week too. https://cindysbookcorner.blogspot.com/2021/10/top-ten-tuesday-morbid-titles-on-tbr.html
ReplyDeleteI don't do horror either, but I love a good mystery! Harry Potter is definitely perfect for this time of year. Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI'm not one to read spooky books either.

I love horror! But, a creepy thriller is good too. :) Thanks for the recommendations!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. Leave a word, leave a line, I would love to hear what you have to say.
