Welcome to Litsy!

1. Gotta be a cat. I‘ve had black cats over the years although ours right now is a torby.

I reread this book every year, right around this time. Such a sweet story. I can always see why I fell in love with it all those years ago. A bookish girl! A mysterious house! The sheer gentleness of this author‘s books are so soothing. Another book read for #BookSpinBingo!

The pic is of my original copy. Look at that worn cover.

Sadly, no. When we first moved out here in the 90s I stocked up in case anyone stopped (I grew up in a rural area, and car trick or treating was a thing) but it wasn‘t to be. Eventually we had kids nearby we were close to and I made them a Halloween basket every year, which was fun.

I bought an Autumn themed phone case! Halloween is not a big holiday for me, but I think we all need extra joy this year. I even bought Halloween lights. 🎃

It‘s nearly time for #BookSpin! It was so much fun in September. So, without further ado, here is my October list. 25 books this time, all mysteries/gothic, cuz, you know. I‘ll use the list for #screamathon as well. But I‘ll admit I don‘t normally like anything to do with horror, so I‘ll just enjoy the #scarathalon posts.
The tagged book was my favorite as a tween, and I reread it every October. I own all of Jane‘s books, many bought as an adult.
