October | Gregory Bastianelli
5 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
A magician and a dark evil at Halloween come together an an intriguing coming-of-age thriller. Readers of Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way Comes and All Hallows by Christopher Golden will love this. In 1970, four boys on the cusp of becoming teenagers notice strange events occurring in Maplewood, NH, timed with the late-night arrival of an old magician who has taken up residence in a boarding house in their neighborhood where one of the tenants is a reclusive pulp horror writer. The writers fears have kept him from venturing outside in over forty years, fears linked to the magicians previous visit. As children go missing in town, the four boys try to piece together seemingly unrelated phenomena and realize dark forces are at work, but no one will believe them. FLAME TREE PRESS is the imprint of long-standing independent Flame Tree Publishing, dedicated to full-length original fiction in the horror and suspense, science fiction & fantasy, and crime / mystery / thriller categories. The list brings together fantastic new authors and the more established; the award winners, and exciting, original voices.

CloakNQuill 1 - Middle of the Night 05/10 3🌟
Not my favorite RS book. Didnt give me the atmosphere & driving plot like the others.

6 - Mexican Gothic 02/10 2🌟
For a book so massively praised... expected more than Crimson Peak combined with What Moves the Dead

14 - Library/We Used to Live Here 05/10 4🌟
Probably my favorite of the week. Eerie, creepy, filled my love for gothic horror.

16 - Audio/Coven 06/10 4🌟
🌶🌶🌶 Badass FMC, enemies to lovers 😍

CloakNQuill 21 - FREE/Seventh Bride 04/10 3🌟
I absolutely loved Maria& both familiars! 💜 Its a good adaptation of Bluebeard. I wish the tasks were longer portions of the book. Rhea grows into herself & her courage very well.

22 - FREE/Stalked by Seduction & Shadows 01/10 4🌟
🌶!!! There arent enough peppers. An intriguing story surrounding a possessive vampire Lord & seductive FMC with war lingering. Dark, dual perspective, kinky/BDSM, touch her & 💀

These are 4 recommendations of books I enjoyed. I hardly recommend to read them with the audiobooks, I use both simultaneously, specially Stolen Tongues. Not the best ending but I enjoyed the story.

#HauntedShelf #FrightClub @Jadams89 I don‘t know if it 25 pts for the post, only one post? Or if it is for each book? 🤷🏽‍♀️

Jadams89 25 for this post 👻💚 2mo
Jadams89 Though if any of these fit the recommendation prompts, you can post about them individually for 30 points once the games begin 2mo
Gissy @Jadams89 Okay, so I wait then until tomorrow? 2mo
Jadams89 Right! 2mo

October by Gregory Bastianelli is a book that serves as a perfect love letter to the Halloween season. It wraps nostalgia and terror beautifully within its crisp fall pages.
