Hey Everyone, it’s been a while again. I’m currently on my half term after one really busy first term of the academic. My goodness, that was a long one. But I’m survived, I’m here.
Now, I’m living for the autumn, cosy vibes that this week and a bit off will bring including some spooky books I can’t wait to read. In a way I’ve set myself quite the pile of books but I’m joining the Spookathon that Booksnest is hosting this week on her patreon and I can’t wait!
I would love to know what yours would be. Let me know in the comments. Also thank you to all the publishers who have sent me these copies. So without further ado here are my book recommendations…
My 5 books I can’t wait to read this cosy, spooky season 🎃
Twelve Bones by Rosie Talbot
I’m so excited to read the sequel to Sixteen Souls. It will be great to be reunited with Charlie and Sam in their next adventure.
But when a new threat lurks in the shadows, this time to the living, and all who Charlie and Sam hold near, they must put everything on the line – including their lives – to work out who is behind it. And even then, it may not be enough!
Wise Creatures by Deirdre Sullivan
I was very lucky to receive this book in a Hot Key Books event goodie bag and this is one of 3 books I hope to read this week. I mean look at the cover it’s giving creepy vibes.
I always thought that hauntings began with houses. They don’t, of course.
It’s people, isn’t it? It starts with people.
Suddenly a Murder by Lauren Muñoz
I love a good murder mystery and especially love it even more in autumn.
This is giving me YA vibes of Knives Out and I loved that movie.
Everyone has a secret. Everyone has a motive. But only one of them brought a knife to the party . . .
I Feed Her to the Beast and the Beast is Me by Jamison Shea
The cover and the vibes radiating from it. I’m very excited for this. It’s a queer YA debut from Jamison Shea too.
There will be blood.
Ace of Spades meets House of Hollow in this villain origin story.
The Skeleton Key by Erin Kelly
This one is the odd one out as it’s not YA and the biggest book of the bunch. But this is my October Book club pick and I know I will love this. It’s a gothic, atmospheric thriller and I’m here for it.
A thriller about a decades-old literary treasure hunt and the sinister passions and obsessions that are reignited when a cult mystery picture book is reissued.
