Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can find all the information and upcoming prompts over on her blog. It’s such a fun idea and I love reading everyone’s posts and adding to my book wishlist.

This weeks prompt is a Halloween freebie so I’ve decided to do a book tag instead of the usual list. I found this super fun Halloween Creatures tag created by Anthony from Keep Reading Forward and had to take part.

---

🎃WITCH – a magical character or book🎃

Harry Potter – J.K. Rowling

I’m using my one Harry Potter quota on this prompt as it’s too perfect to pass up. It’s still one of the most magical series I’ve read.

---

🎃WEREWOLF – the perfect book to read at night🎃

Dracula – Bram Stoker

Gothic books are perfect to read at night for the added atmosphere.

---

🎃FRANKENSTEIN – a book that truly shocked you🎃

The Dragon Republic – R.F. Kuang

I didn’t see *that* coming.

---

🎃THE DEVIL – a dark, evil character🎃

Mrs Coulter
Northern Lights– Philip Pullman

Mrs Coulter is manipulative, cruel, and ruthlessly ambitious when we first meet her.

---

🎃GRIM REAPER – a character that should never have died🎃

Matthew Cuthbert
Anne of Green Gables – L.M. Montgomery

I’ll never get over Matthew’s death. He was the absolute sweetest and deserved more time with Anne.

---

🎃ZOMBIE – a book that made you hungry for more🎃

Ninth House – Leigh Bardugo

Recently I read Ninth House and it left me desperate for more dark academia, the occult, and Alex Stern.

---

🎃GARGOYLE – a character you would protect at all costs🎃

Cassian
A Court of Thorns and Roses – Sarah J Maas

I think we all wanted to hug Cassian after the crushing Solstice present scene. 

---

🎃VAMPIRE – a book that sucked the life out of you🎃

A Little Life – Hanya Yanagihara

I’ve read this heartbreaking book twice and still find myself emotionally drained by the end.

---

🎃GHOST – a book that still haunts you🎃

Muse of Nightmares – Laini Taylor

I often find myself thinking about my all-time favourite duology. I loved every word.

---

🎃DEMON – a book that really scared you🎃

The Shining – Stephen King

This book still terrifies me every time I read it. I end up so jumpy and one eye remains on the door at all times.

---

🎃SKELETON – a character you have a bone to pick with🎃

Simon
Kingsbane – Claire Legrand

All I’m saying is, Simon better have an excellent explanation prepared when we meet him again.

---

🎃MUMMY – a book you would preserve throughout time🎃

Pride and Prejudice – Jane Austen

I’d have to preserve at least one Jane Austen book if I thought they would disappear in the near future.

---

🎃CREEPY DOLL – a cover too scary to look at🎃

Campfire – Shawn Sarles

This cover doesn’t seem too bad until you have it sitting on your bedside table and you end up jumping every time you glimpse it.

This was such a fun tag to take part in. Please feel free to consider yourself tagged if you’d like to answer the prompts.
