Hey guys! To get in the spirit of the season, October's topic is CREEPY READS.

Ideas:
-Horror recommendations.
-Paranormal recommendations.
-Mystery recommendations.
-Creature Feature. (books with werewovles, vampires, witches, zombies, aliens)
-Books that creeped me out. (regardless of genre)

Don't forget to aim for the first full week of October (the 4th - 10th) to get your posts up so that if anyone wants to pick up a book we recommended they'll have time to do so before Halloween time is over.

Please share you links in the designated thread, so others can find you!: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

By the way, you can use the hashtag #monthlyrecs to share your links on social media!

message 14: by Yvette (new)

Yvette (bookworlder) I thought I might have to skip next month, as I don't tend to read "creepy" books. But then it occurred to me that drinking blood is pretty creepy, and my list began...

With so many different ways to interpret creepy reads, everyone can join in! You don't have to read horror to have good recommendations!

That's it exactly, Kayla! I just had to change my mindset from creepy = horror.

Janie Johnson Agree with you Kayla this is a large plain.

Great list, Kat! Shadow and Bone wasn't one that came to my mind but you're so right, those shadowfold monsters gave me some freaky mental images!

Raleigh Daniels (raleighdaniels) | 3 comments A werewolf that can fly and a telekinetic/psychopathic vampire lord hellbent on bringing human extinction by raising an undead army. Just putting that out there. Lol

Hey guys, just want to make sure everyone knows there is a separate discussion thread for sharing links. I don't mind if you post your link here on the topic announcement, but they might get lost among other conversations & putting it here might make it harder for people to find it if they just look at the sharing thread. A link to that thread is above.

I am a little behind watching/reading everyone's posts right now but will definitely be checking them all out soon, thanks for sharing! And as always, thank you so much for making this group a success. I love seeing what you guys recommend.

Remember, it's okay to upload at any point in the month of October! Trina and I typically upload during the first full week of each month. :D
