Spooktober Reading Wrap
The overall month has been jampacked with festive events and the busier I get the more I read. Here is a bird's eye view of the books I covered this month.
The Spooky season is here to an end and on the day of Halloween, I sit here reflecting on the various genres I covered this month. Now because when you think spooky, people have different ideas in mind and I wanted to give most of them a try. So I went ahead and read some horror books, murder mysteries, witchy and magic books and a handful of adventure, non-fiction, greek mythology and fairytales.
Here are a few classifications around them:
This has been by far my most read month despite the festivities going on where I pulled off some 15 books or so. Out of these, I do have my favourites that managed to make an impact on my mind.
- How to kill men and get away with it by Katy BrentBlurb: Have you ever walked home at night, keys in hand, ready to throw a punch in self-defence? That’s how it all started. The killing spree, I mean.I sort of tripped into this role… Literally. The first one was following me. That guy from the nightclub who wouldn’t leave me alone. I pushed him, he stumbled, and fell onto his own broken wine bottle. Oops. It was such a waste of a good house white.But now I can’t seem to stop and nor do I want to… I’ve got a taste for revenge and quite frankly, I’m killing it.
- Misfit's Magic by Fred GracelyBlurb: When he’s accidentally made a wizard, a young misfit boy is called upon to save the town he’s been desperately trying to escape in this spooky, whimsical tale of magic and mayhem.Thirteen generations ago, Goff's ancestor stopped a dark wizard from performing an ancient ritual to become invincible. Now, due to magical laws, Goff is the only one who can stop the present-day counterpart from performing the same ritual in Spraksville on Halloween night.It's a deadly, winner-take-all battle where one side has prepared for centuries, and the other doesn't have a clue.
