16 books finished for October and very few were spooky season reads. Oops. In my defense, though, there was a surprise new Smiley, and that overrides just about all other considerations.

I‘ll do my official wrap up later, but I keep up with my #bookspin board all month. I bailed halfway through my bookspin, didn‘t get to the #doublespin, but still managed a #bookspinbingo by 7:30 last night.
I had 67 Netgalley books on my Oct TBR. I read 9 of them and then on Oct 25, my dog passed away and I decided to mood read for the rest of the month. There was no way I was going to read all 67 books on my Oct TBR and a lot of them were nonfiction books. Nonfiction requires more brain power and I‘m not in the mood for that anymore so I‘m going to mood read in Nov and probably in Dec too just so I can read whatever I want.
Here‘s what my October TBR looks like now at the end of the month. I implemented my color coding system again. After my dog Toppy passed away on 10/25, I added a new section called Not Right Now which means I‘ll read the books later but not right now. I‘m not in the right headspace for nonfiction anymore. This was too much. This is 67 books. There was no way I was going to read all of these books this month.

1. I teach first grade so yes! I‘m thinking of going as a bat like Stellaluna.
2. Currently reading The Southern Book Club‘s Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix and it‘s pretty darn good so far!
Thanks for asking @TheSpineView !

I haven‘t been listening to books while walking because my sister has been with me on my last few walks. Here‘s what I‘m reading tonight. I‘d tried to listen to it before, but it just didn‘t work for me. I think it‘s one of those books that is better read as either a print or ebook.
“Pip. Pip. Pip. Poking a hole. Cracking. Cracking. Out pecks the white owlet.”
Teacher could use a book to teach lessons about owls specifically horned owls. This book provides a lot of great information. Students could make their own haiku‘s with different animals.
