Some romantic movie with Dakota Johnson and Pedro Pascal. Materialistic, I think it is called…
Then Sinners! So good! I am sure it will become a favorite for Halloween
And some oldies: Little Shop of Horrors, Blade, and Haunted Mansion.

Calendar blocked!

I will contact you directly. Depending on the amount of time required, it may fit.

Flying to Ecuador messed up my reading plans.
I spent Tuesday packing and finalizing work.
Wednesday was just flying day (15 hours). I watched 5 movies on the plane but couldn’t concentrate on reading.
Thursday fighting with jet lag….

I hope to finish

I loved Woodworm and The Bloody Chamber! I hope you enjoyed them

I will be checking your review of The Unseen
Sounds interesting

I am planning on reading The Raven Scholar next month.

Sounds like a good plan!

Level of satisfaction: Total Bliss!

1. How did your Readathon go overall? What were the highlights for you? Disappointments? Things you might do differently next time?
Great! I never plan anything so it is very relaxing and surprising

2. Are you continuing to read for the rest of the weekend?
I doubt it. Hubby just arrived home and he isn’t a reader…

3. How many books have you read in this Readathon? How many have you finished? Which was your favorite?
3 books. I finished 2

4. Do you plan to do other reading events or readathons between now and October 18th (our next Readathon)?
Some non competitive readathons

5. Have you added any tempting books to your TBR during this Readathon?

I finished The Perfect Son. It was super fun!

Not sure about using the readathon time wisely. I am just listening to my audiobook while packing my luggage, buying bread for breakfast, preparing breakfast, and vacuuming.
Whenever I decide to get five minutes for resting, I post on discord or GR.

Never! I wish I could visit one of Sebastian Fitzek.

I read The Bloody Chamber earlier this year too! It was really good!

I love female horror writers like:
Laura Purcell
Isabel Cañas
María Fernanda Ampuero
Fernanda Melchor

I don’t read nonfiction as much as I would like. I try to read at least one nonfiction and one biography per year.
I just started The Menopause Manifesto: Own Your Health with Facts and Feminism…
