Running Scared
Running Scared: A Novel of Romantic Suspense | Linda Ladd
4 posts | 1 read
Kate Reed is surely the happiest woman alive when her husband Michael arranges the adoption of baby Joey after the many years they tried unsuccessfully to conceive a child. From the first moment Kate embraces little Joey, she feels as though everything is finally complete. And when Michael suggests they escape the noisy city to find solace and comfort in the Missouri countryside, she feels like everything is falling into place for her and Michael. But when Michaels behavior suddenly becomes bizarre and unexplainable, Kate wonders whether he has got a bad case of the fatherhood jitters. It seems reasonable enough until sinister men arrive on her doorstep to claim her little one. Kates only escape seems to be the woods, where she fearfully remains with baby Joey. When she encounters an unkempt man named Booker, and the two learn she is wanted for kidnapping and murder, this old friend of her grandfather does everything he can to protect Kate and Joey. Of course she has no idea just who this man is, but suddenly she trusts him more than anyone else . . .

1. A participation post is anything using one of our hashtags
2. Simply tag your own team captain. You do not have to tag both of us.
3. For the scavenger hunt Ex: #ScaryScavengerHunt #TeamStoker #Scarathlon @TheReadingMermaid
4. No. if you are re-watching things that you have seen/read in the past that is fine. However you cannot re-watch/reread the same film/book this October to accumulate double points.
Anything else? 😁

TheBookDream Is it too late to sign up? I can‘t find the appropriate post 5y
BeansPage @TheBookDream I just tagged you in the sign up post. And no it is not too late 😊 5y
InkedBookworm13 Do we need to count up our points ourselves and put it in our posts? 5y
See All 40 Comments
BeansPage @LokiDokey no that's okay sweetheart. Cassandra and I will go ahead and tally your points 😘 5y
jessinikkip Okay, I have yet another one... 🤦 Id like to keep up with my points, to keep myself going this month. If we read a book on the theme and post about it, is it JUST 2 points for the book or also another for participation so 3 points? (Hope that makes sense...) 5y
BeansPage @jessinikkip don't worry I got you girl, so if you read a book under the team theme it would be two points for the book and one point for the participation post. So three points total. That is how we are scoring. 5y
jessinikkip Awesome, thanks! 5y
AsYouWish Do episodes of scary shows count for the movie? For example if I watch 2 hour long episodes of American Horror Story, would that count as 1 movie? 5y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa I signed up yesterday, but didn‘t hear anything back... did it not go through? 5y
BeansPage @AsYouWish no. Unfortunately we have decided to only include scary films not TV shows. Maybe next year though 😉 5y
BeansPage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa hey sweetie I'm so sorry but I've been bogged down today and my head feels like it's not screwed on right. 🤪 You are on my team sweetheart. #TeamStoker 5y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @TheReadingMermaid Ok, sorry your day I had been blah. I hope tomorrow is better for you. Great, now I know who to tag! 5y
AsYouWish Awesome! Thanks, just thought I would check! 5y
BeansPage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa so it hasn't been a bad day it's just been super crazy that's all. Haha first day of the month! 🤪 Yep you just tag me and TeamStoker 🖤 5y
BeansPage @AsYouWish 😘😘 5y
Lizpixie Oh, so I don‘t have to tag you on everything coz I‘m on #teamslaughter 5y
BeansPage @Lizpixie no ma'am, you only have to tag your team captain 😉 5y
Laughterhp Do we have a schedule of pages/chapters to get through each week for Dracula? Or is it just read at your own pace? 5y
BeansPage @ElizaMarie this post should clear up some of your questions. Please feel free to ask me more questions on this post here. 5y
BeansPage @Laughterhp I am making up a post for that right now sweetie 5y
ElizaMarie So team stroker is vampire only? Or what other books fit in the theme 5y
BeansPage @ElizaMarie oh no sweetie, it encompasses all monsters and ghosts. Pretty much any horror book that you pick up would be under our team theme. Except for the slashers, those are for Team Slaughter. 😉 What other questions do you have? 5y
ElizaMarie @thereadingmermaid Yes, so psychological thrillers? And I‘m retreading You would that give me points? Or no? Also was planning on retreading Doctor sleep for the movie... oh and YA count? 5y
BeansPage @ElizaMarie oh yes all books count as well as children's books and graphic novels and comic books. As long as they fall under the team theme of monsters, ghosts and/or gore. Now thrillers is where it gets a little tricky, because most of those do not have monsters in them or ghosts. For the books that will really count you have to look more towards the horror section. And Doctor Sleep is more of a mad/slasher I believe. 5y
ElizaMarie Thanks. It‘s making more sense. But it would be a book read so that‘s good. Thanks for being so patient with me ;) 5y
BeansPage @ElizaMarie of course sweetheart. Anytime you have a question you can simply ask me. I'm always here to help ❤️🤗❤️ 5y
ElizaMarie What‘s the scavenger hunt? 5y
AsYouWish Quick question about the movies, some of the movies I planned to watch this month are Halloweenish, but not necessarily scary (examples: Practical Magic, Halloweentown, etc.). Would those still count for points? 5y
BeansPage @AsYouWish yes yes and yes 5y
ElizaMarie Oh and when is 24b4 Monday? 5y
AsYouWish Yay!!!!! Thank you!!!!! 5y
BeansPage @ElizaMarie #24B4Monday will be held on the 25th through the 27th this month 👻 5y
ElizaMarie Thanks. I hope I have that weekend off so I can participate. I work weekends sometimes 5y
BeansPage @ElizaMarie don't worry sweetie we all make our own goals for that readathon so it's no worries if you do not hit the 24 hours. No goal is too small. Some people make their goals for only 5 or 10 hours and that is perfectly fine. It's whatever you can do. The main goal is just to read and have fun with your fellow bibliophiles 😁 5y
JacqMac Thanks for this. I think I finally figured out the points system. Maybe? If you post the photo challenge for the day it‘s one point and then it‘s one point for participation, so 2 points? 5y
BeansPage @JacqMac no sweetie let me break it down for you... So for the photo challenge we're only allowing one point because it's one post. But for things like movies and books we are giving you the points for the movies and the books and then an extra point for the post. 5y
JacqMac Ok. That helps a lot. Thanks for your patience. (edited) 5y
BeansPage @JacqMac of course sweetie. If you have any other questions don't hesitate to ask 😘 5y
BeansPage @thereadingunicorn this might answer some of your questions 😘 5y
coffeewithbooks @TheReadingMermaid yes it did thank you (: 5y
