Scary book of the month - Library of Souls

What is the underworld ferryman's name who guides dead souls on the river Styx? Is it Charon? Library of Souls has it's own tour guide and his name is Sharon.

~ Chapter 2 ~ 

Sharon the boat guide, unlike Charon who never talks, warns them of the never ending dangers of Devil's Acre but the three peculiars act as though they aren't afraid and nothing can hurt them which disturbs me a lot because I fear for their lives even if they don't . UGH!

Jacob senses the presence of a hollowgast.... who attaches himself underneath their boat and oddly listens to Jacob telling it to defend against a couple of feeders in Fever Ditch.

OMG this is getting too much already! I hate Devil's Acre! I would never want to go there! What is wrong with them three?!!

~"Holy Chapter Three! It's 62 pages long! not too bad....a lot happened I can't even begin grrr. With every chapter my blood pressure rises. damn those pictures!" "

~I really liked chapter 4. It wasn't filled with scary but it did shed some light on a few lost subjects i.e: What loops were made for to begin with and how wights and hollows came to be. We are introduced to Mr. Bentham."

Boo Berry The Cryptkeeper

I've been busy gearing up for an allhallowsread blogoween and the task isn't going to be an easy one. Starting in October, I will be joining with all kinds of halloween bloggers in the 2013 Countdown To Halloween, where I am posing as the Boo Berry Cryptkeeper. It is my desire to share a few scary books for this halloween facade and festivity and I'm also counting on boo berry to help me from being scared to death. Sorta like Bob the Skull was to Harry Dresden

If I do get scared from all the horror I will turn into bruised berry causing me to swear repletively and then I'll be the scary one *shivers.

As far as it goes, I had never read a Stephen King novel or liked reading horror books or movies before. BUT I am determined to slowly change that. So, I've made some book choices, some horror, some not so much, that I will be sharing with you all in the next month. I've realized though, that I generally prefer paranormal to horror. Ghosts don't scare me, they never have, at least not yet anyway. Enjoy yourselves this Halloween folks!
