Yay! My favorite fall activity, second only to Halloween itself, is upon us! Dewey’s 24-Hour Read-a-thon!
The October read-a-thon is always my favorite. It’s likely because I tend to focus on reading horror and all things spooky! The weather here is cool, perfect “leggings/layers/books” weather!
I have a pretty insane TBR pile (photo to come later)! I don’t plan on reading all of these, but I like to have options:
- Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo
- Thirteen Doorways, Wolves Behind Them All by Laura Ruby
- In the Hall with the Knife by Diana Peterfreund
- How to Survive a Horror Movie by Seth Grahame-Smith
- The Haunted by Danielle Vega
- Small Spaces by Katherine Arden
- Dead Voices by Katherine Arden
- His Hideous Heart edited by Dahlia Adler
- Institute by Stephen King
- The Toll by Cherie Priest
- Out of Salem by Hal Schrieve
- Curious Toys by Elizabeth Hand
- Missing Person by Sarah Lotz
Our menu, the second most important thing, has also been planned:
- Cheese and fruit tray
- Totinos Pizzas (tradition!)
- Cinnamon rolls (tradition!)
- Trail Mix
- Apples and peanut butter
In interesting twist to my reading plans: the water department has been doing repair work in our neighborhood for some time. We just got notice they are replacing water valves; we’ll be without water service from 9 AM to 3 PM! This should be interesting! John returns from visiting his parents tomorrow afternoon, too, so I’ll have a bit of a break in my reading for a little while at least!
Are you joining in on the readathon fun? What books (and menu items!) are on your list!?
