A Discovery of Witches: A Novel | Deborah Harkness

pick

Well I managed to finish it. Phew! I can't say it was my favorite read from #Scarathlon2020, but I did enjoy it for the most part. I do feel it was a bit longer than necessary. #TeamHarkness #LittenListen #fallintoreadathon #CreatureFeaturethon #thrilloweenreadathon #bookspinbingo

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 3y

Gissy I concur with your opinion! But I think I like to suffer because I will read the second book🤣 3y

aperfectmjk Yeah, I'll probably get around to reading the rest of the series at some point. Though I will be honest. I am TERRIBLE at finishing a series. If It's a shorter series I usually do okay, but if there's 10 or more books in the series, then I get overwhelmed by the commitment. 3y

aperfectmjk @Gissy forgot to tag you in my reply. Lol 3y

Gissy I have the same problem with series so in my 2020 goals, I committed myself to finish at least 4 of those that I already started. I think I'm going to accomplish the goal🤞I'm trying every month to read at least one sequel. 3y

A Discovery of Witches | Deborah E. Harkness

Okay, so this whole time I've been waiting for this one to become available through Libby only to discover it was available through Hoopla the whole time. 🤦‍♀️

So here we go! This is 24hrs long, hopefully I can get it finished. Wish me luck #TeamHarkness #Scarathlon2020 #thrilloweenreadathon #CreatureFeaturethon #fallintoreadathon #littenlisten

Gissy You can do it! I'm still far behind. We can do it🤞 3y

aperfectmjk @Gissy thanks! I've already got just over 4 hours in. When you consider there are still 20 hours left... seems like I'll never get there. 😄 3y

The Year of the Witching | Alexis Henderson

"There is evil in the woods." Started #theyearofthewitching this morning. So far I'm loving the creepy atmospheric quality of this one. This is a nominee in the Goodreads People's Choice Awards for Best Horror, we'll see if it gets my vote. #Scarathlon2020 #TeamHarkness #CreatureFeaturethon #fallintoreadathon #thrilloweenreadathon

Eggs Great photo 3y

In_the_stacks Wait a sec...is this anthology actually edited or co-authored by Laura Ingalls Wilder?.. 3y

TheSpineView 👍😀📚 3y

aperfectmjk @NomiReads honestly I'm not sure, I'll have to double check, but that doesn't seem right. 3y

In_the_stacks @aperfectmjk haha I hope it is the case, though it does seem unusual! (edited) 3y

Reggie Omg, the girl who works in our employee dining room was reading this today. What a coincidence! 3y

Finished this one last night, and yes, it did terrify the hell out of me! #Scarathlon2020 #TeamHarkness #ReadYourWay #bookspinbingo #cocoturns50 #thrilloweenreadathon #fallintoreadathon #24B4Monday

Parasite | Mira Grant

Started this one this morning. I think now might be a good time to mention that I have parasitophobia. So I really hope this doesn't terrify me. #Scarathlon2020 #TeamHarkness #ReadYourWay #cocoturns50 #bookspinbingo #thrilloweenreadathon #fallintoreadathon #24B4Monday

Soubhiville Uh oh... how did it go? The premise here might be tough for you! It‘s pretty gross! 3y

Mongrels: A Novel | Stephen Graham Jones

pick

Well, this wasn't a dud, but I will say I would have liked just a bit more excitement. Somehow this just didn't thrill me in a way a horror novel should. #Scarathlon2020 #TeamHarkness #cocoturns50 #fallintoreadathon #readallweekcgb #thrilloweenreadathon #ReadYourWay

Ghost Road Blues | Jonathan Maberry

pan

Well I did it, I FINALLY finished this one. Ugh! 😒 You know how you listen to an audiobook and sometimes you notice things that maybe you wouldn't if you read it yourself? Like the overuse of certain words. There was just a combination of reasons this didn't work for me. A big one, the narrator. #Scarathlon2020 #TeamHarkness #thrilloweenreadathon #cocoturns50 #fallintoreadathon #readallweekcgb #ReadYourWay

@StayCurious @CocoReads @TheSpineView

TheSpineView I hate being disappointed by a book.📚😏 3y

aperfectmjk @TheSpineView that's two in a row for me. I'm hoping for a win with the next one. 3y

TheSpineView @aperfectmjk 3rd times the charm!🤞🤞🤞 3y

The Turn of the Screw | Henry James

pick

Well that was a quick one. I've said it before, the darker classics just appeal to me. It's hard to believe this was written in 1898. #Scarlathon2020 #TeamHarkness #OutstandingOctober #thrilloweenreadathon
