The 1st Annual Halloween Reading Challenge!

So I'm browsing some book blogs today, and I see some Christmas Reading Challenges... and I'm like "oh that's awesome, I'll have to get involved in that this year..." But then I thought, "wait, you know what I love reading more than Christmas books... Halloween books..."

Am I the only one who loves to read as many spooky stories as I can get my hands on during the month of October?? Why can I not find any Halloween Reading Challenges out there?

If they exist, please point me in their direction. If they don't exist... well, I'm about to start one. :D

 { The Rules }

There aren't going to be a lot of rules, since I'm starting this so late into September... just an excuse to read some creepy books and have fun!

  1. Spread the word about the Halloween Reading Challenge! Blog it, tweet it, pin it, however you best like to spread info! We gotta get the word out since I'm starting this so close to October!
  2. Make a blog post about the books you intend to read for the challenge - you can find my list below. (You can of course read off-list... this is just a starting point.) Feel free to use the image above in your post if you'd like, but please be sure to link back to the Halloween Reading Challenge page so other bloggers can find the sign-up if they want to join in.
  3. Add your name and blog to the link-up here. Visit the other bloggers who signed up to see what they're reading too!
  4. You can link your reviews as you get them done, or you can link a wrap-up post. The last day to link up a post is November 2 (when Dia de los Muertos ends, in case you're wondering).
  5. Feel free to read whatever genres and subjects interest you - kidlit or adult, Halloween or Dia de los Muertos, fiction or nonfiction, horror, gothic, suspense, humor, romance... whatever gets you in the mood for All Hallow's Eve!
  6. Read as many or as few books as you want... just have fun!

 { My Halloween Reading List }

There's no way I'm going to get to read all of these this year, unfortunately. :/ Some of them are rereads, some are classics that I'm way overdue to read for the first time, some are new finds that I hadn't heard of until now... and I'm excited to read every one (eventually)!
