Polls
October Author Read: Some Scary Sh**
Vote for who we will read in October. Choose one of the listed authors, or add one of your own----please be sure the one you want to add is not already on the list. And please make sure the nominated author has at least a few books to choose from.
I'm looking for authors that do scary, spooky, gory, grisly, creepy, crime, deviant, deranged, chiller, thriller, killer or any other thing that fits this category. I want some real scary stuff here! More than a cozy mystery or a classic.
You can change your vote anytime before the poll closes. So if you've voted, and someone adds an author you want to change your vote to, feel free.
