Spooky Season is Almost Upon Us! Who's Excited for October?

 

In the fall I enjoy reading/listening to spooky/light horror/paranormal books.  I used an audible credit to listen to this book and I listen to the book at 1.3 speed.  I enjoyed this reader and would listen to other books read by her. 

This book is YA and it has some of your classic YA tropes.  Alexis Henderson does a fine job creating a creepy atmosphere and throughout the book, I was not sure who was 'bad and who was 'good'. I liked that I was constantly questioning everyone's motives.  I could not even be sure  Immanuelle was a reliable narrator.   

This isn't the sort of horror that will give you nightmares or make you freak out about a bump in the night, it is the sort of horror that really puts one in the Halloween spirit.  Oh now if you do want to take to the next level, listen to it while you walk in the woods, at night.

Four Stars!


And in decidedly not spooky Autumn fun, I found the perfect shower curtain to hang from now until December! It's from Bed, Bath and Beyond--I finally used one of the 50,000 coupons they send me in the mail. :-)
