Yay!!
Should be fun, Lady D!
I'm in! I laughed at Overdue Book Fines because I flip out if I come close to racking those up, haha. I'm thinking about reading some scary/horror/thriller-chiller types of books in October but I haven't figured out what I'm going to call my challenge here yet. I'll do some thinking and plotting and we'll see what I come up with!
Oh, brave you, Teresa! Welcome to the challenge.

I have some scary books, so I should be able to come up with something!
Looking forward to your list!

Way to go, Brandilyn!!! You reading demon, you!
I finished the ten books for the challenge earlier than I planned, so I think I add three more books for lucky thirteen.
Congrats, Ora! I'll wait for your next 3 to update!

I might just have to jump to building a November list - I've bombed out on a scary list - just wasn't in the mood for scary this month. Did just finish one, tho, where the main characters see and talk with ghosts, so even tho they're kindly ghosts, they were murdered, so I'm counting it!

Welcome to October's Build Your Own Challenge!
Duration - October 1 - October 31
Theme - All Things Spoooooooky!
How does this work?
Well, we all have fears. Things that scare the bejeebus out of us. Skeletons. Zombies. Alien Invasions. The IRS. Whatever scares you, if you suck it up and read about it, it counts for this challenge!
Some Scary Possibilities -
Bee stings
Ant invasions
Spiders not in sexy tight suits
Overdue Book Fines
Speeding Tickets
Blind Dates
Elevators
Taxes
Halloween Costumes
Whatever scares you counts! Easy as that!
Rules - You can make your list ahead of time and change it throughout the challenge. The only real rule is that, in order for a book to count, you can't start reading before October 1 and must finish your book on or before October 31.
Please post your updates stats at the top of your post so they're easy for me to see.
Sign-up below!
