The Month in Reading - Spooky Books for Fall

I love Halloween! It's my absolute favorite holiday, which is why I always reference it in my books :)

Here's me with my brother one Halloween. I'm Minnie Mouse. 

Growing up, I regularly dressed up my pumpkins and named them.
Meet Ernie and Fred. Lol.

There is certainly something about fall that makes me want to curl up with a good book - especially one that's dark and brooding.

If you're looking for something to read, here are some of fall favorites:

Frankenstein by Mary Shelley

 

Dracula by Bram Stoker

The Witching Hour by Anne Rice

Ghost Stories by M.R. James
