October wasn‘t the best reading month in terms of quality. So going with the most memorable read of the month, Dead Eleven.

Kids table of books for trick or treaters
Every year I give away books at Halloween, had so many books this year had to borrow tables from the neighbors.
Thank you for participating in #witchathon again. I have added so many books to my tbr for next year! Happy Halloween Witches!
Thank you @Texreader for the #modernwitchswap and @BookwormAHN for hosting. I love everything. I am already wearing the socks and reading The Last Witch of Edinburgh and it is good so far. Hoping to fit one more read in for #witchathon. You know me well with your selections. Thank you.
pickSoft pick. If you like The Time Traveler‘s Wife you will like this book. I was sick all week and had brain fog so the complex storyline was hard to follow. #hauntedshelf #teamflerken #31by31 #spookoween #halloweenatoz @PuddleJumper @Catsandbooks @TheSpineView #witchathon

My weekly oops haul from forced time in the bookstore while my kid was in bookclub. Shorter stack today. Plus my #modernwitchswap box arrived @Texreader @BookwormAHN
Tea review - Sunny C from DavidsTea. I love this tea. Very citrusy but not too tart. Refreshing. Good as iced tea or hot tea. No need to add anything. Full of vitamin C so it might help if you are coming down with a cold.
so-soThis is going to be my November #seasonalcozies I figured the mystery out right away. I did love all the descriptions of Fall and you definitely want to have grilled cheese and tomato soup ready to eat while reading. I love revisiting favorite characters from a series, it is like visiting a friend. #hauntedshelf #teamflerken #31by31 #spookoween #halloweenatoz @PuddleJumper @Catsandbooks @TheSpineView @julieclair

so-soMight have been a good concept for a book, but the execution fell a little flat. Needed more detail and the historical note at the beginning of the book contained such a spoiler it ruined one of the storylines. #hauntedshelf #witchathon #teamflerken #31by31 #halloweenatoz #spookoween @PuddleJumper @Catsandbooks @TheSpineView

Here is my weekly oops haul from my forced two hours in the bookstore while my son is in his high school homeschooling book club. This time they discussed The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and got a themed breakfast of flap jacks and Jack o lantern cookies and drinks. Plus prizes for answering vocabulary and spelling and trivia questions. Proud to say my kid had correct answers for many questions.
panA middle aged stay at home mom decides she wants more, so she pursues her old dream of being a lawyer. The book made me laugh a few times but I also felt attacked for my own life choices. And the writing is heavy in dialogue. Would never had read this but it was a real life book club book. #hauntedshelf #teamflerken @PuddleJumper #31by31

pickEerie story about an island with a demon. Good premise, but not terrifying and wanted and different ending. #hauntedshelf #teamflerken #spookoween #halloweenatoz #31by31 @Catsandbooks @TheSpineView @PuddleJumper

A little early but got these for #foodandlit for Canada. Hubby had a work trip by the border and there was a Tim Hortons. Tim Hortons is trying to compete with the McDonald‘s boo buckets, offering a 31 donut hole bucket that glows in the dark. The donuts were amazing! Like them better than dunkin. @Catsandbooks @Texreader
Points check in for #hauntedshelf #teamflerken @PuddleJumper I will add points for the wordfind and the doodling at the end of the month. Total so far is 1393
Made our own pizzas for lunch time reading.one on right is pesto pizza with bacon, it isn‘t burnt and was very delicious.
The book mobile was outside a the fancy Italian deli. Got a mortadella, stracciatella, pistachio cream, pistachio sandwich and some imported Italian drinks. Very delicious. Got some murder mysteries from the book mobile.
My kids are a little excited. A new book and a video game! And the movie!
pickVery informative about how witch trials changed through out history yet stayed the same, and the trials were influenced future trials and common beliefs about witches. #witchathon #hauntedshelf #teamflerken @PuddleJumper #31by31 #spookoween #halloweenatoz @Catsandbooks @TheSpineView

Made a magic potion, aka Tomato Minestrone Soup, for the #witchathon bingo board. 98 degrees outside isn‘t going to stop me from celebrating Fall.
I forgot to take a picture but I mailed my #modernwitchswap box today @Texreader it should be there Friday so keep an eye out @BookwormAHN

Doing some of the doodling @Catsandbooks I‘m a few days ahead but I do a few each time I have a doodle session. Will total up pts later. Maybe add color. #hauntedshelf @PuddleJumper #teamflerken
pickListened to the audiobook with my son while puzzling. Very moody and atmospheric. This is my son‘s bookclub book for October. #teamflerken #hauntedshelf #halloweenatoz #spookoween #31by31 @Catsandbooks @TheSpineView

Tea review - cherry b@&b, a herbal fruit tea with apples cherries raspberries rose petals and more. Slightly tart, needs a pinch of sugar. And yes, I‘m still drinking iced tea because we are still 100+ and I‘m over it. It is Fall, feel like it!

Found lots of word search words but will turn that in all at once when I find them all or at the end of the month.
Weekly oops book haul. But when you have to spend almost 2 hrs at the bookstore while your kid is in the weekly teen bookclub things just happen. And they got a bunch of new bookmarks in and started putting out Christmas.
pick#naturalitsy friends will like this book. #hauntedshelf @PuddleJumper found a few word search words but I will just turn that in all at once. This book has been on my tbr for months.

#witchathon has begun! The goal is to read a minimum of one book with a witch but read as mean as you would like and tag me.
