Happy October, Friends 🍂

🎃 Some of the books I read in October! 🎃

[masterjedilenawrites]

A cherished companion to the To-Read list, my Done-Read list is a compilation of all the fics I read each month as I continue to read based on my notifications. If you missed the reblogs I left along the way, you can use these lists to find recs for your own reading journeys.

Another short list, but no less sweet. While there were some wonderful clone fics and headcanons as usual, I was also grateful to come across fabulous fics of other characters too... some long-time faves and new character friends alike. Thank you to the writers who intrigued and entertained me this month! 🤗

The effect of this cannot be understood without being there. The beauty of it cannot be understood, either, and when you see beauty in desolation it changes something inside you. Desolation tries to colonize you.

There are certain kinds of deaths that one should not be expected to relive, certain kinds of connections so deep that when they are broken you feel the snap of the link inside you.

That's how the madness of the world tries to colonize you: from the outside in, forcing you to live in its reality.

That which dies shall still know life in death for all that decays is not forgotten and reanimated shall walk the world in a bliss of not-knowing ...

I told my coworker that I was reading Frankenstein and she responded with “why”.

Like… because??? Since when did I need a have an assigned school essay to read a classic monster novel in the hallowed month of October?

[🎃 Spooky month studying 🎃 ]

October enthusiast right here! I've been reading some spooky books and doing some not-so-spooky studying 📖👻

October was full of bangers, every single one of them. Charlie Adhara's series was by far my favorite, the character development, different take on werewolves, and romance was just beyond anything I've read before.

The Bright Sword reminded me how much I love epic fantasy with outcast leads and dark whimsy, plus the queer characters actually have great arcs and endings. And Seducing the Sorcerer was such a good laugh, completely unexpected and feel good.

Liar City is another one that left me thinking about it for weeks, I can't wait for the next one. I'll be continuing the Souldbound series by Hailey Turner, I'm a sucker for grumpy and traumatized hero x cinnamon roll protector.

It’s finally October! And I have, once again, created an overly ambitious tbr. But I’m hoping the books I read will contain all the atmospheric, gothic, and witchy vibes I need to enhance my experience of my favorite month. 🪦🕸️🍂

Here are my October hopefuls:

The Invocations by Krystal Sutherland 🧙🏻‍♀️

Graveyard Shift by M.L. Rio 🪦

The Doll Factory by Elizabeth Macneal 🎎

The Briar Book of the Dead by A.G. Slatter 💀

House of Hunger by Alexis Henderson 🧛🏻‍♀️

The Dead Take the A Train by Cassandra Khaw and Richard Kadrey 👁️

A Night in the Lonesome October by Roger Zelazny 🦴

Midnight Rooms by Donyae Coles 🗝️

The Secrets of Hardwood Hall by Kate Lumsden 🕯️

And that’s not to mention my audiobook, American Scary: A History of Horror, from Salem to Stephen King and Beyond by Jeremy Dauber, or my current read, The Bone Key: The Necromantic Mysteries of Kyle Murchison Booth by Sarah Monette. It should be a full month!

I’ve decided to reread Harry Potter from the beginning 🖤

Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone,

I keep waiting for you, but you never come,

So tell me Romeo, what should I read next while I'm waiting for you?

[andreai04]

I don't mind being pitied. As long as it gets me what I want, people can think whatever they want about me.

First book of October finished. ☺️

It’s not my typical genre, but it was a darling book! Laughed a lot, cried a lot. Loved every step!

Definitely recommend!
