The month of October is all about the scary, and there's nothing like reading in bed with all the lights on scared out of your mind. I thought it was the perfect time to spotlight some great authors, and books for the ones that want to get SPOOKED!

I read
The Shining last October and it did a great job of creeping me out. Also, I really wanted to bring attention to Alexandra Sokoloff.
The Harrowing is one of my favorite scary books ever, and I have a couple more of her books in my TBR. I will be pulling
The Price off my shelves in a couple of days, I'm looking so forward to reading it.
Any scary books you can recommend?
I met Alexandra Sokoloff at BEA this past year. I wasn't able to get any of her books though. My friend did and she loved them!
ReplyDeleteI'm always craving early John Saul around this time of year. Super spooky!
Oh Rosemary's Baby! A good one!
ReplyDeleteI did not care for "Heart Shaped Box" it got old 1/2 way through.
"The Exorcist" was probably the scariest book I have ever read! Couldn't read it past 5:00!
