Clare-Dragonfly My goodness, she must have been right there! No wonder she fainted! It‘s very strange to me that George picked up and carried the photographs that were covered in blood only to throw them in the river… 1y

Clare-Dragonfly Also, would you add me to the tag list? 1y

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly added you! And wtf was he carrying those bloody things around for??? He should have just said they were gone or ruined or something! 1y

Ruthiella @Clare-Dragonfly I think he, like Lucy, was flustered in the moment. Lucy gets over the whole witnessing death thing quite quickly but I think George is more affected than he lets in. 1y

BarkingMadRead @Ruthiella I totally agree, he seems like a sensitive guy 1y

Bookwormjillk I have no idea what is going on but I am enjoying the ride. 1y

Crinoline_Laphroaig @Bookwormjillk 😆 1y

mcctrish #nothingeverhappenstome #someonedies is it just us, or are all our books filled with murder? 🤣🤣 1y

dabbe If all that happened with Lucy just going for a walk, what on earth would have happened if she'd actually bucked society and rode the tram? 🤔🤣😊 1y

BarkingMadRead @dabbe omg it would be Armageddon! @mcctrish one can only hope 🤣 (edited) 1y

mcctrish @dabbe 🤣🤣🤣 1y

Bklover Did anyone else interpret George saying he wouldn‘t return to the old life- he wanted to live - at the end of the chapter to mean he was actually enjoying himself and was drawn to Lucy? 1y

BarkingMadRead @Bklover 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ 1y

Bklover Oh, and why must women always FAINT?!?! 1y

dabbe @Bklover Amen, sista! 🤩🤩🤩 1y

Morr_Books Lucy is definitely having quite the adventure so far. I wonder how she will explain her day to Charlotte. 1y

TheAromaofBooks Also I couldn't deal with this chapter being called “The Fourth Chapter.“ All the rest have title names, but apparently Forster couldn't figure out how to summarize “rebellious walker becomes a murder witness“ 😂 1y

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks your title is so much better 1y

TheBookHippie @TheAromaofBooks 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 1y

TheBookHippie @Bklover it‘s the girdles corsets 🤷🏻‍♀️ 1y

TheBookHippie @Bklover yes I took this as the love bug has bitten him 😅 1y

Clwojick I recommend An Unwanted Guest by Shari Lapena and All The Missing Girls by Megan Miranda! 5y

Clwojick For those #GraphicNovel lovers, I suggest My Favorite Thing Is Monsters ( which I may have to reread), Chew, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and PaperGirls. 5y

Lizpixie I‘ve already suggested non fiction about serial killers or murders. Anything by Tess Gerritsen, Kathy Reichs, Peter Robinson, Ann Cleeves, Jo Nesbo, Claire Macintosh, Michael Connolly or Robert Crais. For ScandiThrillers you have Henning Mankell, Karin Fossum, Ann Holt, Arnaldur Indridason & Camilla Lackberg. There‘s also Stuart McBride, Thomas Harris, Chris Carter, Ruth Rendell, Gillian Flynn & Rachel Caine. Early Patricia Cornwall too. 5y

Lizpixie For the #scavengerhunt prompt #boneinthetitle most of Kathy Reichs books have bone in the title, or the new release

The Bone Houses

Clwojick @Lizpixie I absolutely love the show Bones, and i quite enjoyed the one audiobook that i read by Kathy Reichs. I'll have to check out a few more by her :) 5y

Clwojick Ooooohhhhh! @Lizpixie comin‘ in with all the good RECs! (why isn‘t there a Bowing emoji?) (edited) 5y

Clwojick @Lizpixie and I‘m with you 💯 on Practical Magic! That‘s one I seriously need to reread! I‘ve had it on my self since late last year. 5y

Lizpixie For #abouthalloween there‘s Halloween Party by Agatha Christie, The Halloween Tree by Ray Bradbury, Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury or the short story collection Dead Leaves:8 Tales From The Witching Season by Kealan Patrick Burke. 5y

Bookwormjillk @Lizpixie I was going to suggest Agatha Christie too. I have Murder on the Orient Express on my TBR, and I‘m guessing #somebodydies in that one. 5y

Lizpixie For #pumpkinonthecover there‘s Pumpkin Heads by Rainbow Rowell, the above Dead Leaves by Kealan Patrick Burke, Crypt Suzette by Maya Corrigan & Death By Pumpkin Spice by Alex Erickson. 5y

Clwojick @Bookwormjillk I‘ve had Murder on the Orient Express on my shelf for WAY too long. Hopefully I‘ll finally get to it in October. 5y

Lizpixie For #thatscaresyou some books that had me shaking(which isn‘t easy to do)are Bird Box by Josh Malerman, The Exorcist by William Peter Blatty( I recommend the audiobook read by the author), The Hatching by Ezekiel Boone, Salem‘s Lot, Christine, The Tommyknockers, It, The Shining & Pet Sematery by Stephen King, The Amityville Horror by Jay Anson & The Hot Zone by Richard Preston. 5y

kezzlou85 @Lizpixie I think you've named just about ever suggestion I thought of. Well done. You've had so many brilliant ideas. 5y

Sarahreadstoomuch For the book with a #vampire I‘m planning on Wayward Son by Rainbow Rowell - it shouldn‘t be scary at all, but I‘ve been waiting on it! Her graphic novel Pumpkinheads is terrific too and fills a couple categories. 5y

madamereadsalot1 I'm planning to read In the Valley of the Sun for a black cover/ with a vampire/ over 200 pages/ where a character dies categories.

In the Valley of the Sun

alisiakae One of my neighbor‘s was Megan Miranda, our kids used to be at school together, and she is so sweet! All the Missing Girls is fantastic, but her first books, Fracture and Vengeance, would also be a great fit for this challenge!

Fracture

Kappadeemom So can one book be counted for several of the scavenger hunt items? 5y

Clwojick @Kappadeemom yes! 5y

InkedBookworm13 I enjoy books from Gillian Flynn and Kerri Maniscalco. I read a bunch of one off books... one of us is lying, then she was gone, girl on the train, the seven deaths of Evelyn hardcastle, and birdbox. 5y

RainyDayReading Throwing in some more graphic novel recs for those that want them. For #Zombie there‘s Scooby Apocalypse, #vampire there‘s Day Men, for #Witch I highly recommend Spell on Wheels and for #someonedies there‘s Kill or Be Killed, Lady Killer or The Fade Out. Each of these (except for Spell on Wheels) are part of a series as well. I‘ll do some digging and drop back by with some book suggestions after I peruse my bookcase a bit 😊 5y

Liatrek @Clwojick I wanted to check can one book be used to get multiple points in the different challenges? Example my copy of Murder on the links is black cover 1 point scary scavenger hunt, team theme mystery 2 points = 3 points or a book can only be used to get points in one category? 5y

Clwojick @Liatrek yes, the points can be stacked. 5y

Liatrek @Clwojick Thank you! Working on my Scare a thon spreadsheet 😊 I‘m so excited! 5y

Clwojick @intothehallofbooks Welcome to #TeamSlaughter 5y

intothehallofbooks @Clwojick yay!! Thanks, I‘m excited!! 5y
