Happy Friday, #GrimReaders! We still have a while until the #HauntedShelf starts, but I wanted to share my Team Lead Picks so you can start planning your October reading. Of course I chose books where Death is a character!

You‘ll get 15 bonus points for reading any of these, on top of whatever other points they count for.

ImperfectCJ I love your logo! 1d

CSeydel @JenReadsAlot Yay! Yeah, I thought it sounded clever and original. I feel awkward calling these “favorites” since I haven‘t read them yet myself, but I‘m hoping to read them all during the event. 1d
willaful I'm definitely going to listen to the Moore. 1d

Not my normal cup o‘ tea, but the plot ties to the American South and the enlightening look at the lesser known trades (pottery and whaling) of African slaves drew me onward. I mistakenly thought this a romance novel at the outset, but soon grasped the historical fiction supporting story arc underneath a sensitive narrative about generational trauma for black people coupled with personal tragedy and how that could shape lives.

Hello and welcome to team #GrimReaders for #HauntedShelf !

I'm Carrie, your team lead for this adventure, here to answer questions, post information and challenges, and cheer you on!

I'll tag all team members in every team-related post, but because notifications can be funny, it‘s good if you follow me at least while the event is running.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's haunted reads!

CSeydel Also, I‘m new to HauntedShelf, so if you participated last year (or even if you didn‘t!) please feel free to let me know if there‘s something you think I should be doing differently! I won‘t be offended if you say “hey why aren‘t you …” or “usually the team leader does …” 😄 5d

Not my usual fare but enjoyable so far.

Suet624 She‘s speaking at the Vermont Studio center in Johnson, VT on Thursday. It‘s a 10 minute drive away from me. I‘m hoping that a meeting. I have to go to ends early enough for me to attend. (edited) 2w

The first in a series set on Cape Cod, this one had a lot going on…and not all in a good way. Lots of nonessential info that could not even be described as red herrings. I‘d say more, but it may be considered spoilerish. Let‘s just say it‘s confusing. #Xander #CatsOfLitsy
