Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m something of a broken record when it comes to my favourite genre, but I can‘t stress enough how much I love a good ghost story. This is a fantastic read, featuring the works of E F Benson, Edith Wharton & M R James to name a few. These are classic ghost stories by masters of the genre, haunting & creepy. ‘The Phantom Rickshaw‘ by Rudyard Kipling is probably my favourite out of this collection but it‘s hard to choose when they‘re all so good!

My plants all died bc Minnesota cannot make up her mind about the weather but at least it makes for better creepy reading vibes this morning!

The other day I had a revelation that pretty much my new fave holiday/season is approaching and I'm so not ready to give you spooky book recs yet so here I am preparing! 🎃I read the first story in bed last night and it had me SHOOK. So good. Featuring classic and modern stories from E. Nesbit, Edith Wharton, Ruth Rendell, Rudyard Kipling, and many more. Also THIS COVER 💀🎃🖤 #spookyreads #halloween

I've been so slow at reading AND participating in photo challenges lately, but I can't miss out on the #booktober/#octoberphotochallenge, so here's my #mostanticipatedreads to get in the Halloween/autumn spirit! My first goal is to FINISH KING'S IT THIS MONTH 💪 I can do this! And on the Kindle is Steve Himmer's Scratch 💕📚🍂🍁🎃💀👻 #Octoberreads #OctoberTBR #TBR

This was fun just-before-bed reading. Classic ghost stories from classic storytellers that even the faintest of heart could tiptoe their way through. The awesome cover sold me on checking this out and I walked away from the read pleasantly surprised and just a bit spooked.
