#Spooktober Reading Challenge

 October is one of the best months of the year, its my favourite as its my birthday month(I am so happy!).October is great for readers who like to love mystery ,thrillers and gothic books ,its even good for a cozy read. This year, I decided to do an October reading challenge and find new and interesting books to read .

                    

 I have not yet decided some of the books so maybe you all could help me in choosing my next read.. Without further delay, lets see the books I have decided so far.

1.Title  begins with 'O'

I have 2-3 books on my TBR which come under this but I am going to read Origin by Dan Brown. Its been on my TBR for a long time and I think I should finally give it try(my inner self: you'll like it) 

2.Protagnist has a Cat

For this one I'm going to read Literally Murder(Black Cat Bookshop Mystery #4) by Ali Brandon.

Don't know if the protagonist has a cat or not but there's a black cat on the cover and the name of series also shows there is a cat involved in it.

3.Set in the woods

This is one is going to be The Girl Who Loved Tom Gorden by Stephen King. The story is about a little girl who gets lost in the woods and is wandering farther and farther astray. The synopsis looks thrilling and I can't wait to know how much more thrill the book contains.

4.Character wears disguises or costumes

I haven't found any book at the moment which comes under this. A little help would be nice .

5.Starts with a murder

Its going to be A Dark and Stormy Murder by Julia Buckley

6.Set in a magic world or fantasy land

An Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson .I have read A Sorcery Of Thorns by the author and loved it so I'm going to give this one now a try .

7.Set on Halloween

The Halloween Tree by Ray Bradbury .

8.Pumkin on the Cover

I found this book randomly on Goodreads. It's Dead Leaves: 9 tales from the Witching Season by 

Kealan Patrick Burke.

A collection of stories enclosed in a single book is one of the best things.

9.Based on a true crime

Aarushi by Avirook Sen .A story about about the murder of Arushi Talwar in 2008.I still remember how the case became a rage at that time.I was too little ( 8 years old) to understand it completely so now I am going to read it.

9.A local ghost story or spooklore

Haven't found such a book so far. If you know of any such buch which is not very horrific then suggest it in the comment below.I am actually not a big fan of  horror books or movies so a mild one is needed.

10.Set in a Haunted Ho\use

A house of Dreams by Brenda Joyce

11.A witch mystery 

Recently bought it .Its Hex over Heels by Samantha Silver. 

The book has a gorgeous cover.

12.Title Contains the Word "blood" ,"dead" or "bone"

Well I read recently Blood and Honey by Shelby Mahurin(check out the review).I am going to read Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo.

13.An upcoming October Release

The Once and the Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow. Its going to be published on 13th Oct 2020

Well this is my reading challenge so far.It may increase as I come across any intriguing books(this happens a lot).It you have read any of the books mentioned above tell me in the comment below your views on it .If you are going to read any one of the them then please tell me in the comments because it will be lovely to get some reading companions.
