I’m a couple days late on my TBR post because I wanted to wait until I could get a “really cute, fall-ish” picture. Hopefully I’ll have a lot of time this month to dedicate to reading! What books are you guys looking forward to getting to this month?
Carrie – Stephen King
- Originally Published 1974
- Page Count 253
- Genre Horror
- My Rating Prediction 4 / 5
Can you believe I’ve never read Carrie? Yeah me neither.
The Word is Murder – Anthony Horowitz
- Originally Published August 2017
- Page Count 390
- Genre Mystery, Thriller, Crime Fiction
- My Rating Prediction 4 / 5
I don’t know too much about this book, but the woman who checked me out at Barnes and Noble said that she loves this book and this author and there’s a sequel to this book that is also very great, so interest? PIQUED.
And Then There Were None – Agatha Christie
- Originally Published 1940
- Page Count 264
- Genre Mystery, Thriller, Crime Fiction
- My Rating Prediction 4 / 5
I’m excited to read my first Agatha Christie novel! I just started this book a couple days ago and I’m pretty into it so far. Based on what I know of this book, a lot of people are manipulated into visiting a creepy mansion and end up dying. First rule in literature/film : never travel to a place that you can only reach by boat, that usually means you’re going to have a very hard time leaving. Remember that Dawson’s Creek episode with the creepy boat guy who took them to Witch Island? Yeah, like that.
Gideon the Ninth – Tamsyn Muir
- Pub Date September 2019
- Page Count 448
- Genre Science Fiction, Fantasy
- My Rating Prediction 3.5 / 5
I started this book about a week ago and it’s taking some time for me to get into. I’m not as used to reading Fantasy, but I’ve heard such good things about this book that I want to give it a shot. I saw a comment recently that said that Gideon the Ninth is a lot like And Then There Were None but with lesbian space necromancers. I put them both on my tbr before I even saw that comment so it must have been ~fate~.
The Exorcist – William Peter Blatty
- Originally Published 1971
- Page Count 385
- Genre Horror
- My Rating Prediction 3 / 5
Surprisingly enough, I love horror movies but have never seen this one in full. I’ve seen bits and pieces of the movie when I was way too young to be watching it, I also just know the basic plot because doesn’t everyone? I have a feeling this book will be slow and hard to get through but hopefully I’m wrong!
It’s been a while since I read Carrie (or saw the original movie) but her mother still remains one of the scariest things I’ve read or saw! Have fun with your October reading 🙂
