Boo! (k) s
Happy Halloween, everyone. The Bookshelf Battle month of Halloween literature has cruised along non-stop but alas, it must come to an end, for the Fall/Winter tradition of America is as follows:
- October – Celebrate Death
- November – Stuff face with game bird
- December – Celebrate Jesus’ Birthday by Asking a Fat Man to Bring Us High-End Electronics that will be obsolete by Valentine’s Day
Seventeen days of Halloween literature posts – bringing you discussions of horror classics, zombie fiction, vampires, ghosts, ghouls, goblins, and more!
Plus, I tweeted Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Raven” in its entirety! No one has ever been that a) awesome or b) stupid or c) had a desire to waste time in such a ridiculous manner before. Check it out at #tweettheraven and as always feel free to follow me @bookshelfbattle
Alas, starting tomorrow I’ll have to leave the horror fiction fest behind but – is there really any good Thanksgiving fiction? Hmmm…maybe I’ll have to divebomb straight into Christmas fiction.
After all, this is that odd time of year where you walk into the store to find a) half-off clearance on psycho zombie masks next to b) Rudolph and Santa Claus paraphernalia, wrapping paper, candy canes and so on.
Thanks for reading, fellow bookshelf battlers. Until next time, this is the proprietor of an underappreciated book blog signing off.
