Hello, Everyone!!
Wait…. a HALLOWEEN TAG?? But, Nicole… IT’S NOVEMBER!! Ya ya. Well, I just got tagged yesterday and DAMMIT I’m doing it!! FIGHT THE POWER!!
I was nominated for this tag by the Brunching BookWorms (if you haven’t checked them out, be sure to do so!! Everyone needs a good brunch and a book after all that reading and drinking!! HA HA!)
They found this tag on A Book A Thought. The tag is originally from Anthony @ Keep Reading Forward, so I recommend you check out his blog too!
Rules:
• Answer all prompts.
• Answer honestly.
• Tag 1-13 people.
• Link back to this post.
• Remember to credit the creator.
• Have fun!
WITCH
A Magical Character or Book.
Now… I know that this isn’t what people think of when they hear Brandon Sanderson! But, if you haven’t checked out this series, it is honestly TOO MUCH FUN!!!! I flew through the whole series in probably a week or 2. I would HIGHLY recommend the audiobooks read by one of my favourite audio voices, Ramon de Ocampo. He is SO FANTASTIC! …Although, there are a lot of fun things to enjoy if you have a physical copy… Check it out on Goodreads!
WEREWOLF
The Perfect Book to Read at Night.|
Forever one of my favourites!! Maybe it’s a nostalgia thing… but, you can’t go wrong with any of Dean Koontz’ older novels!! Check it out on Goodreads!
FRANKENSTEIN
A Book that Truly Shocked You.
I don’t shock easily. But, this book is just ALL SORTS of messed up!! Check it out yourself on Goodreads!
THE DEVIL
A Dark, Evil Character.
Goddamned Sir Henry Cruttendon….. I wanted to scream. I wanted to throw things…. Check out my review HERE
GRIM REPEAR
A Character that Should Never Have Died.
…….you know what you did, Brent. YOU. KNOW. Check out my review HERE!!
ZOMBIE
A Book that Made You “Hungry” for More.
The first book in this trilogy had me salivating for more!! It was really great!! (Too bad the rest of it got a little weird…. still good…. but the first book was SO GOOD! Check it out on Goodreads!
GARGOYLE
A Character that You Would Protect at All Cost
So…. I don’t know if I just don’t have a protective instinct?? Or, maybe I just don’t read books that involve people that need protecting. Hm… So, I’m going to turn this one on it’s head and pick someone that is so bad ass she doesn’t NEED my protection!! Tori is my new soul sister! I love her sass and her balls. Ha ha! Such a super fun and strong character! Check out my review HERE!!
VAMPIRE
A Book that Sucked the Life Out of You.
Ugh….just…. ugh. I never want to see this book again.
GHOST
A Book that Still Haunts You.
This book doesn’t haunt me in a bad way…. it haunts me because even though I read this book years ago, I still think about it and talk about it to people. If you haven’t read it YOU REALLY SHOULD!! (But, NEVER watch the movie… what a piece of disappointing trash…. ) Check the book out on Goodreads!
DEMON
A Book that Really Scared You.
I don’t usually like books like this (as in, I usually find them all stupid and annoying) this one may have gotten a little fantastical… but, for some reason it really made me uncomfortable because it is absolutely a situation that could happen. A man taking everything away to make his wife powerless to get away?? It happens every day. And, the situation with the puppy?!?! I WAS GOING TO JUMP INTO THE BOOK AND STRANGLE THIS GUY!!! Check it out on Goodreads!
SKELETON
A Character You Have a Bone to Pick With.
Rachel. UGH! God, I hate this book….and God, I. HATE. RACHEL. I want to punch her. I want to kick her. I want to pull her hair….most of all I want to shake her until it hurts screaming over and over again “NO ONE FUCKING CARES ABOUT YOUR WHINING AND DRINKING!!!!” The bone I have to pick with her is the fact that she exists….. too harsh?? HA HA!!
MUMMY
A Book You Would Preserve Throughout Time.
Ya ya…. I know that you’re all probably sick of seeing this cover… But, SCREW YOU ALL!! Definitely one of my favourite books in a long time, and if I could FORCE you all to read it… I would! HA HA!! If you missed my review on this one, Check it out HERE!!
CREEPY DOLL
A Cover too Scary to Look At.
I cant wait to review this book in the next week or so!! STAY TUNED!! Until then, check it out on Goodreads!
The Evil Librarians series was great! I never read the last few books though when they went out of print a while back. I didn’t know if he got his rights back or not so I could finish the series.

It is AMAZING!! I read it months ago and I still can’t stop talking about it. The stories all have such different types of horror, and it’s so easy to read because all of the stories are 100 words… No more, no less. I honestly can’t recommend it enough! 😅

I always look back in the morning in the reader to see if I have missed out on some posts from the previous day…and…I missed this one (yes…I know: the horror! 😱😱😱) Please don’t us the genital grinder on me……..😳😳😳 (seriously though: WTF 😂😂😂)
I’m sad that I haven’t been able to do much with Halloween this year…but there is always next year. It’s always a fun time of the year. Well….I’m still going to kind of celebrate it tomorrow, as I will be going to the new Halloween movie….yay🎉🎉🎉 (erm..sorry…😅😅).
This was a seriously fun post, and some erm interesting books (though interesting for a book called genetital grinder might be pushing things….see what I did there again….😂😂😂).
