Oh my gosh, not only is there less than one week until October, there is less than one week until OCTOBER SECOND! Ack!

So yes, #BookSpin day is coming, so if you want to play for October, it's time to start thinking about your lists!! Several of you are more organized than I am and have already posted them, so sorry if you're getting tagged when you've already posted!!

As a reminder, you can totally combine this challenge with #Scarathlon - ⬇

#OutstandingOctober @Andrew65

My favorite October reads!! 👻🎃☠️🦇

Sorry that I haven‘t updated my hours for readathons, but I have been participating. My final week points for #teamslaughter with books, TV, & #slaughterthon are 526. Total for October is 1,992. #scarathlon Thanks @Clwojick for being a fun team leader!

It was a good month. A lot of REALLY GOOD books.

#OctoberReads #OctoberWrapUp

I'm still reading 2 of them but they will either be done tonight or in the morning so I'm counting them for October.

I read 8 books on October, no bingo, when was my last bingo?🤔I can't remember☺️never mind, they are 8 less from my tbr. If I want to be sincere, one book was almost all pictures and extremely short but it counts. Thank you to @ladyneverwhere for Discovery of Witch book which she gave me 2 years ago in #HocusPocusSwap I really enjoyed all readathons and loved all swaps.Thank you to the coordinators. It was a fun, magical reading month🎃🖤👻🖤💀🖤

A busy, but great month of reading for me!

#OctoberWrapup
#OctoberStats

Hey #TeamHarkness! Here‘s my final tally for #scarathlon2020. Got a lot of reading done (for me) and had a great time doing it! I definitely could have been more up on the small readathons that popped up along the way but not bad for a first effort. Thanks to allllllllll the hosts and my teammates for the wonderful book and movie recs too! See you for the WinterGames next month!

I read 13 books this month and enjoyed all of them, except Covet was not really for me. The Ballad of Black Tom and Luster were both 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 and excellent. Dracul and The Only Good Indians were really perfect for Halloween. I am sad that October is over.

I need to read the following by the 24th, as a pre-readathon challenge for @DeweysReadathon

1. Book over 500p.
3. Randomised genre: supernatural/cosmic horror
4. A spooky book
5. 75% one colour on cover
7. Published more than 100y ago
9. Set in spring/spring-like cover
12. Animal on cover
15. Set in location I wish to visit or live in.

Goal for #OutstandingOctober is to complete at least five of these!

#October

For me, October is all about Halloween, fall colors, weather cool enough to enjoy walks, and rainy days staying indoors reading.

October is a scream! 😱 #chillingphotochallenge

Total: 85* (I‘m unsure of my total at this point lol)

My October #tbr so far! I‘m very close to finishing Fluffy and Meet Cute, then I switch to scary and monsters for the #scarathon!! Also several of these will count towards the #ScaryScavengerHunt go #teamstoker! @TheReadingMermaid

Happy October! It's my favorite month. Fall is here with its cooler temps, vibrant colors, and wonderful smells. And Halloween!

October's #BookishBingo
I'm gonna dominate this board by reading all of the paranormal romance/urban fantasy books that I've got laying around in my TBR piles 🤓💯👊🏻

🎃🤷🏻‍♀️🧟‍♀️👹💀👻🦹🏻‍♀️🦸🏻‍♀️🧙🏻‍♀️🧛🏻‍♀️

Thought I‘d share the #Scarathlon point tracker again, and take this time to answer some FAQ.

☠️ Children‘s books, graphic novels and anything of the like DO count towards points. So if you read a Halloween picture book - that‘s 5 pts!

🧛🏻‍♂️We‘ve decided that TV episodes will not count, due to a matter of scoring. It‘s too hard to track how many episodes everyone watches

🧟‍♂️All books finished during Oct #24B4Monday is worth 2 points!

It's been awhile since I've participated in one of @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks and @OriginalCyn620 photo challenges. They are always so much fun! I'm looking forward to this one
