My 2022 Spooky Season Reading List

Happy October 1st! For some reason, I’m more excited that I usually am for spooky (reading) season. I have been mentally compiling a list of the all the books that would be perfect to read for spooky season aka the month of October. My recent book haul happened partly because I wanted to have a few books on hand for the season.

This list is compiled of some books from the book haul, some unread books I currently own, and possibly some library books.

These Fleeting Shadows by Kate Alice Marshall
The Woman in the Library by Sulari Gentill
The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware
The Death of Jane Lawrence by Caitlin Starling
Just Like Home by Sarah Gailey
Daisy Darker by Alice Feeney
Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel
If I Disappear by Eliza Jane Brazier
The Hunting Party by Lucy Foley
Survive the Night by Riley Sager (read in September)
Little Eyes by Samanta Schweblin
Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo
No Exit by Taylor Adams
All Her Little Secrets by Wanda M. Morris
The Devil and the Dark Water by Stuart Turton
Winter Counts by David Heska Wanbli Weiden
The Girl in Red by Christina Henry
The Wolf Wants In by Laura McHugh
These Silent Woods by Kimi Cunningham Grant
Blood Sugar by Sascha Rothchild
Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier
The Every by Dave Eggers

Obviously I won’t be able to read all of these. The books in bold are the ones that I really, really want to be able to read, which is still a long list. Luckily, some of these are from my recent book haul, one is an ARC, and a couple others I already have holds on that will hopefully come in time for me to read them this month.
