Oh my gosh...look how much Megan spoiled me! 😍

I didn‘t get a chance to open my #AllHallowsRead package until after conferences tonight, but it was so worth the wait!

A gorgeous tarot deck (with a book!), all of these lovely books (Made for Love! Craft!), Pennywise stuff, ghost socks, a witchy candle, Alice‘s Nightmare coloring book, a sugar duck!! So much more. And a string of lights I can use to make my posts 😎

Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️

ReadingRover Yay!!! I‘m so happy you like everything! It was so much fun shopping for you. I had such a blast!!! 7mo

ReadingRover Also the sugar duck lights up💡!!! I think there is a little plastic thingy in it you have to pull out. I tried to find one that wasn‘t already on. 7mo

sprainedbrain @ReadingRover oh yes, my little dude had it lit up right away. He also ate all of the skittles and wants the Pennywise keychain hooked to his backpack... never mind that he‘s 7 and has never read or watched It. 😂 7mo

ReadingRover @sprainedbrain 😂 that will go over well at school when the other moms see it! 🤡 7mo

The Lie Tree: Costa Book of the Year 2015 | Frances Hardinge

My #allhallowsread pick for this year. Loved it so much the first time I read it that I have been anxiously awaiting the opportunity to squeeze this back into my TBR for a re-read. My front cover blurb would be, “beautifully grim.” It‘s a delightful mix of historical fiction, fantasy, murder mystery, horror, and feminist credo. 🖤🖤🖤 What‘re you reading for Halloween? 🎃👻🦇

Happy Halloween! 🦇👻☠️🧙‍♀️🎃
I hope everyone has time to read something scary today!

Hocus Pocus and The All-New Sequel | A. W. Jantha

It‘s not midnight yet and I have to work so early but I really want to open my #LitsySwapoween and #AllHallowsReadSwap packages. So do I start Hocus Pocus in order to stay up, or go to sleep so I‘m not a real life teacher zombie tomorrow? Hmmm. The struggle is real. Cake picture included because I‘m eating it right now and it makes me happy.

StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego The struggle is real. Lol. 8mo

Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers | Mary Roach

The looks I got reading this in public!
This book is fascinating and I read this straight through. Highly recommended if you are looking for some non-fiction reading. I was afraid it would be gory because of the subject matter but she wrote this well. She was able to convey what she needed to without being gross. #allhallowsread

VioletBramble I frequently have conversations about the cadaver farms. Those were the most interesting parts of the book, to me. 8mo

The Last Apprentice: Revenge of the Witch | Joseph Delaney

I listened to this audiobook and I really enjoyed this creepy tale. Tom is the seventh son of a seventh son and is sent to apprentice with the Spook. His job is to contain the witches, ghouls beasties and boggarts. I actually held my breath a couple times. A great introduction to scary stories.

The Woman in Black: A Ghost Story | Susan Hill

I was waiting in the car parked at the curb when I was reading this.
I looked up and woman dressed in black was standing by my passenger door.
I screamed! I must have given the poor lady a heart attack. I know my hair has been a shade grayer ever since.

Frankenstein: ; Or, The Modern Prometheus | Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

This is a classic tale of Gothic Horror. A book you must read! This is a cautionary tale of the dangers of science. In today‘s world with genetic research and the wonders that can be accomplished in a lab this book scares me more each time I read it and I think that also makes it timeless!. This is the granddaddy of monster stories and definitely a must at Halloween. #allhallowsread
