It's once again time for The Broke and The Bookish's Top Ten Tuesday! This week's theme is a Halloween Freebie, one I've been looking forward to for quite a while. You can do whatever you like so long as it keeps with the Halloween vibe, be it 10 scariest books, 10 vampire novels, ect. A fun topic!
I'm doing a bit of a hodgepodge of ideas, from books that are creepy, to a few that actually scared me, to some great paranormal ones. Too ADD to stick to one category! Regardless, they're all fantastic Halloween reads. ;)
If you want an absolute mindfuck, try.....
10. Nocte (Nocte, #1) by Courtney Cole
This is a fantastically dark and twisted tale, full of mystery, madness and romance. Click here for my review. |
If you like things on the lighter side of paranormal, try....
9. Some Girls Bite (Chicagoland Vampires, #1) by Chloe Neill
If you want action, killer (literally) characters, and some seriously sexy times, try.....
8. Halfway to The Grave (Night Huntress, #1) by Jeaniene Frost
If you want to sleep with the lights on, try.....
7. Dead Sky Morning (Experiment in Terror, #3) by Karina Halle
If you'd like to emotionally scar a pre-teen, try....
6. Pet Semetery by Stephan King
I was...11, maybe 12 when I read this. It took two weeks before I was comfortable in the dark again. |
If you want an unusual take on YA paranormal, try....
5. My Soul to Take (Soul Screamers, #1) by Rachel Vincent

4. Obsidian (Lux, #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout
If you want something truly spine chilling, try....
3. The Hallowed Ones (The Hallowed Ones, #1) by Laura Bickle
This was such an unusual book! I loved the way it handled vampires; they weren't the seductive, genteel creatures you've become accustomed to. No, these are true monsters. Click here for my review. |
If you want a grim reaper, try....
2. First Grave on The Right (Charley Davidson, #1) by Darynda Jones
While I'm not as crazy about this series as everyone else, it's a really enjoyable story with a quirky heroine, a smoldering love interest, and tons of humor. |
If you want travel, Fae, kick-ass action, world building, and the best alpha of all time, try.....

I own Nocte and really need to get to it. I agree about the Lux series. I liked the first and it is funny but after I don't think it was quite as good in the subsequent books. Great list!
ReplyDeleteawesome books, i have read quite a few of them and loved them!
ReplyDeleteI need to pick up The Hallowed Ones. I am so sick of vampires that sparkle. Great list!
ReplyDeleteI'm really curious about Nocte after your review the other day. Thanks for other ideas as well - I like how you broke them down. :)
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to read Chicagoland Vampires series!
ReplyDeleteI have read all of these but Hale and Cole..both are on my list! Awesome picks :)
ReplyDeleteWow, I haven't read any of these but some of them sound like I really should have! Everyone's lists are so great, i almost feel like I copped out with my ten scariest books, three of them were Stephen King!
ReplyDeleteHere's my TTT.
THe Hallowed Ones was creepy! More so than I expected for a YA novel. Loved it! Happy Reading!
