Finally! The days are getting shorter, there is a faint chill in the air and things go bump in the night. The best month of year is just around the corner and it's time for our October Group Listen.
This month the theme is, of course, HALLOWEEN. Send a chill up our spines and nominate books that have something to do with the best holiday of the year, the creepier the better.


Books that have been read by our group in the past 12 months are not eligible. As always, books with more nominations (seconds, thirds, etc.) have a greater chance of making it into the final poll. ***Authors, please no self-promoting here.***

Nominations close on Monday Sept 18.

Origin is a fun book, I loved it, but yeah, it doesn't have anything to do with Halloween.

That's why it pays to read the intro. You never know what you'll discover. ;-)

There have been some great suggestions. Keep 'em coming!

Dark Harvest was read in Sept '16. Just over a year ago and that puts it through! :)
Good book too.
