I’m a big baby and I never read scary books. Glad others enjoy this genre so much. Teach me how to be brave!

Deb-
My boys contribute with reviews of Halloween picture books! I try to make it fun and interesting for all involved!
The books don’ t have to be scary! Anything Halloween related (favorite Halloween memories, pictures of Halloween decorations, Halloween recipes) works as well

I wish I enjoyed the genre more, then I’d be able to get into all of the scary book review posts and leave better comments.
As it is I think October is the month that I comment the least on everyone’s posts because I’m a big sissy about horror books.
I was wondering–have you ever heard of the Readers Imbibing in Peril (RIP) Challenge hosted by Stainless Steel Droppings? It’s basically a challenge through the months of September and October to read lots of creepy books
) Since you like the genre so much, just thought I’d mention it. (http://www.stainlesssteeldroppings.com/r-eaders-i-mbibing-p-eril-vi)

Thank you! I’m terribly excited about winning! I’ll admit that despite the literary aspect of the prize, the vampire plushy is also most excellent! I’m already planning on reviewing the prize books for next years Mx3!
