I fully enjoy 99% of everything that makes Halloween a fabulously fun holiday! And the missing 1%? It’s the scary part. I really and truly do *not* enjoy the scary movies (or even the ads for scary movies) or the haunted houses or creepy costumes. Lucky for me, it’s only 1% and my coping mechanism is reading to distraction -not so bad! Are also looking for some distracting books? How about one of these:
Benediction by Kent Haruf
Lock, Stock, and Over a Barrel by Melody Carlson
The Returned by Jason Mott
Wonder by R.J. Palacio
My One Square Inch of Alaska by Sharon Gwyn Short
Or check out the books we read and shared in our last genre discussion Happy Horror-ween! (And eat some fun-sized candy while your at it!) Enjoy!
