Victoria Scott | 1131 comments As we all know, October is the month of Halloween, everyone's favourite scary holiday. So, for this month's challenge, you have to spell out a word to do with Halloween.
For each letter of your word, you have to read a book that starts with that letter (a or the do not count). You get a point if it was read within the month and you have posted a review. If you read a horror or thriller for a letter, you get a bonus point! Each book you read gets you a point, and the person with the most points on the first of November wins.

Example:
W - Where She Went (If I Stay, #2) by Gayle Forman Review: (post link)
I - If I Stay (If I Stay, #1) by Gayle Forman Review: (post link)
T - Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass, #1) by Sarah J. Maas Review: (post link)
C - Carrie by Stephen King Review: (post link)
H - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Harry Potter, #1) by J.K. Rowling Review: (post link)

Total score: 6
