October 2014 Group Read Suggestions

[Ms. Nikki]

It's that time again. The weather is changing. Fall is here. What shall we read this October? Do we want a Spooky Halloween story or a Fall seasonal read?

What book will you suggest for us? Make it good.

*If you don't plan on reading with the group, please do not make suggestions as this is unfair to those who do participate*

Authors: NO SELF PROMOTION

Thank you,
HA

I can't wait for the weather to change its been so miserably hot here (Southern CA). What about a classic like Poe or Lovecraft?

HARVEST MOON, by James A. Moore. A fall, supernatural, halloween tale all in one! :)

[Jonathan]

Have y'all done DARK HARVEST yet? Because it's glorious.

[Alissa]

I'm feeling nostalgic.

I nominate The Exorcist

Dark Harvest was great--I could re-read that one....

[Judith]

Wich Dark Harvest? There's a few under different authors

[G.B.]

Yes, I agree with Alissa:

[Cassie]

If you mean this Dark Harvest, it's amazing!

Dark Harvest by whom? There are several books with that name on Goodreads. Thanks!

[Liz]

I am on board with...

[Reese]

I'd be up for the Exorcist. I've never read it before.

[Judith]

Cassie if that's the one, wich I think it is, I would definitely go with it.

[Kieron]

I would like to nominate 20th Century Ghosts

[Nate]

That sounds about perfect for the fall/halloween theme.

[Ken B]

I like the sound of Dark Harvest

[Norman]

I suggest House of Leaves not sure if everyone has done it yet but it's filled with atmosphere (5 1/2 minute hallway or the quarter for those who have read it.) and it's interactive to boot.

[Judith]

I think a classic halloween story would be awesome. I mean, we can only read it once a year in the right atmosphere isn't? It is not the same watching Halloween on february as it is on October. Just sayin'

[Shyanne]

I recoomend https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... The first book to actually scare me in along time and a fresh new look at a old setting.

[Shawn]

Pumpkin Man, John Everson

[Robert]

There are a few I can think of, but I'm assuming I'm constrained to one nomination, so I have to go with Stewart O'Nan's brilliant "The Night Country".

I read it every Halloween anyway (actually, the audiobook is great, so I often listen to it instead), and I'd love some company and for more people to read this book! :-)

Nice! That's going on my to-read list regardless.

The Night Country

[Tressa]

LOL, Jon. You're my favorite writer.

[Ctgt]

Thanks Jon. Some people just don't get it.

[Chris]

Dark Harvest was terrific, as was The Halloween Man by Clegg, and The Pumpkin Man by Everson. However, my vote is Harvest Moon, since I like James Moore and have yet to read this.

Something from Robert McCammon? I just finished "Gone South" and while I know that one isnt "horror" it at least showed me what an amazing author he is. Maybe "Swan Song" or "Blue World"?

[Jordan]

I just finished this book. It was amazingly graphic and detailed. Cutter has a way with descriptions that few can immolate

[Marc-Antoine]

I'm recommending HELP! A Bear is Eating Me! by Mykle Hansen

[Sean]

Definitely The Exorcist. I was planning on reading that anyway.

[Pete]

Has anyone read THE WICKED by James Newman? It's a perfect Halloween book.

[Terry]

I 2nd the wicked. Never heard of it but the synopsis sounds cool and it got good reviews. The Troop sounds pretty good also.

[TJ]

I also vote for Norman Partridge's "Dark Harvest". I've wanted to read it for years.

[Wayne's]

None of the above so far.

[Shawn]

Or They Thirst. This one just got reissued. A nice vampire one.

[C.J.]

I vote for The Troop, too.

[Myst]

I vote for something by Poe.
