Welcome to my weekly post, where I sum-up what I’ve been up to in bookland the past week.
Greetings blog friends. It’s been another busy old week in the land of Horror October; Here’s what I’ve been reading…
Now: Hunter of the Dead ~ Stephen Kozeniewski // Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children ~ Ransom Riggs
Hunter of the Dead has started off well, I love Kozeniewski’s comedy-horror b-movie style writing. I also picked up Miss Peregrine as my lunch-time/bus read. I’m struggling to get into it to be honest.
Then: The Travelling Bag and other Ghostly Stories ~ Susan Hill
I enjoyed this collection. Review will be up soon.
Next: ???
You know, I don’t even know what I have left on my Horror October list…must check….

UP NEXT ON HORROR OCTOBER: The 2nd entry in the Flash Fiction Battle. Read entry #1 here.
Miss Peregrine has been on my to read list for ages. I keep putting it off because so many people I know have read it, thought it was “ok”, but weren’t captivated by it. I hope it picks up for you.

Yeah I’m afraid to say that that’s the impression I’m getting too. I just can’t connect with the story at the moment but hoping that I will at some point!
Miss Peregrine is the Hype or Like Friday Group book of the month, I doubt I will have time to read it, but I have seen mixed opinions about it, so I’m not if it gets put off a few weeks!
Happy spooky reading! 🙂
Thanks. Yeah I wasn’t sure if I wanted to read it tbh, but the film trailer intrigued me because it looked nothing like how I imagined the book would be – just from flicking through it. If that makes sense.
Hope Miss Peregrine improves for you. https://chrissireads.wordpress.com/2016/10/19/this-week-in-books-43/
Yeah, I have Miss Peregrine on my shelf to read, too.
Lol! B-movie style writing! I hope Hunter of the Dead continues to be good for you. Looking forward to your thoughts!
