Heart to Heart Mondays (5): Plans for Halloween and scary book recommendations

-

       I adore Halloween.. Here in Croatia it is not as big a deal as it is in USA but we are slowly getting there. There are more parties every year, more people in costumes and if it werent for the people who pray for our lost souls in church every Halloween, it would be great. I have a little Halloween tradition, I watch the entire Season 2 of Supernatural all day and night, with a little bit of snacks and wine but this year I am probably going out since it is my best friends birthday. And I will be in costume.. Lady Beetlejuice :) I also just started watching American Horror Story: Asylum and this is my first season of watching the show. There is no show more appropriate for the month of October.. It is super scary, bizzare, bloody, disturbing and full of great acting  
   Now, I also have a few Halloween book recommendation for you, some I have read and some I will be reading this week for the first time. Here we go:



Sookie Stackhouse series is perfect for Halloween, sometimes scary, sometimes funny, full of strange creatures and, of course, blood.
Between the Devil and the deep blue Sea and Between the Spark and the Burn is a two book gothic tale with chilling tone and creepy stuff happening. I will be reading the second book this week.
The Hallowed Ones is a storywith vampires, but in a Amish community. It is full of scary.
Enclave, and the other books in the Razorland trilogy, is just a perfect read, especially in October, full of blood and gore, and numbing fear.
Insomnia and Anna dressed in blood are also the books I will be reading for the first time this week but were higly recommended to me for the scary factor.
Undead is a zombie book, funny and terrifying at the same time. The same with Married with Zombies which is full of marriage problems in the midst of a zombie apocalypse, hilarious and horrifying.

And that would be all.

What are you doing this Halloween? Do you have any traditions?
Which scary books would you recommend?
Leave me a comment and have a great and scary Halloween :)

Naked and Far from Home by J.P. Grider  Publication date: October 18th 2015  Genres: Contemporary, New Adult Synopsis: Tia Mercury was a freshman in high school and had her first serious crush – on a senior who wouldn’t touch her. At least not until she turned eighteen. Clinton Daniels was not your everyday teenage boy, and because his tougher-than-nails father wouldn’t let him forget it, Clinton became a loner. And learned to distrust everyone. Until he met Tia. She was sweet, she was funny, and she knew nothing about good music. It was the nineteen-eighties for goodness sake – time to turn off that AM radio crap. So, while Tia drooled over Clinton, he was busy making her mix-tapes. She was falling in love. He was ignoring his heart. See, Clinton had a secret. But sharing it could cost him their friendship, and he was not willing to risk losing the only person he ever loved. Naked and Far From Home is a serious story that spans a d...

I am so glad to welcome you to my stop on the blog tour for Blood games, the 10th book in the Chicagoland vampires series, of which I am a big fan. I am currently in the middle of the book, and I have to say that this series only gets better with time and that Merit and Ethan do have some challenges to overcome but in the end, they face them together. You can expect my review by the end of the week so I go back to reading and you enter to win some great prizes and see my favorite quotes from the series. Summary: While Merit didn’t choose to become a vampire or Sentinel of Cadogan House, she vowed to fight for her House and its Master, and she’s managed to forge strong alliances with powerful supernaturals across Chicago. But even though Merit has had wild adventures, this may be her deadliest yet…. A killer is stalking Chicago, preying on humans and leaving his victims with magical souvenirs. The CPD hasn’t been able to track the assailant, and as the body count rises, the...
