Hey everyone! Well, the Sbooktober Readathon is officially over, and Halloween day is almost here. Last Sunday, I shared my TBR and now it’s time for me to wrap up how this readathon went for me! Unfortunately, I didn’t get everything on my TBR read. But, this week was pretty busy for me, so I’m not surprised at all. But that’s okay, because readathons are just supposed to be fun! đ Alrighty, here’s… Read More

I love Halloween movies! I’m also a big scaredy-cat. So, when I saw Anna @ The Bursting Bookshelf’s prompt for Blogoween, I just new I had to participate. Today’s topic is my Top 5 Non-Horror Halloween Movies! Okay, here we go!
Hey everyone! So, I wasn’t planning on participating in the Spookathon this year, because I was already been planning on doing the Sbooktober readathon, and I just didn’t know if I would be up for two readathons back-to-back. That being said, I feel like I’ve really been lacking with my reading this month, and I’ve decided maybe back-to-back readathons are just what I need! So, I’m going for it! The Spookathon started yesterday,… Read More
It’s time for another Blogtober Book Quote! Today’s quote comes from one of my October TBR picks, and that is The Halloween Tree by Ray Bradbury! I love how descriptive and atmospheric this quote is. It just feels so much like Halloween!
