Halloween Is Coming TBR Time (It’s the Final UPDATE)

Halloween Is Coming TBR Time (It’s the Final UPDATE)

Hi everyone!

Anime, GIF, Wotaku ni koi wa muzukashii, Shock, Reading

BOO! Happy Halloweentober! Yes, just like every year the entirety of October means Halloween reads, movies, and scares for me! This year I decided to share my reads with you. There is still today and tomorrow before October begins, but I just couldn’t wait with sharing this any longer.

I got plenty of books I would love to read. I saved up several books over the past months, plus I want to re-read a couple I haven’t read in a while. Which includes several of my Higurashi manga series (and yes, I am hyped for the new series to be aired this month). I am not sure I can get through the entirety of the series, it is a big one. And I got plenty of other reads, but we will see.

Plus, my Kindle is also full with scares and horror. I saved plenty of books on it the past months for Halloween months and a couple are also from last year that I didn’t read back then. Oh, and the last five books on the Kindle list are ARCs that I saved for this month. Not to mention, who knows what books I find throughout the month? I cannot wait

I will list my physical TBR in pictures and my Kindle TBR with a list.

Be sure to keep checking out my post as I will update it through the month!

FINAL UPDATE NOVEMBER 1st: One last update to show everything I read. I have read a total of 45 spooky, scary, mysterious, spoopy books. Anthologies, Graphic Novels, Manga, Picture Books, Adult and Children’s Books. So many delicious books~ And as you can see on my photograph for my physical TBR it has a lot of dropped/not in the mood books, thankfully I managed to replenish it with some more physical books that I did read. My Kindle List (along with some reads on my tablet) really got huge! It started off with just 10-15 books, but ended with so many more! It was really a fun month with scary reads that had me awake or startled awake at night. Yep, some were that scary.

I cannot wait for next year and see what is next on my menu. I hope for some more manga then. This year I had a hard time finding a lot, so that is something I want to do next year, search far and wide for spooooooky manga.

I hope you all enjoyed my updates and loved seeing what I read this year for Hallowtober! Look forward to next year, I am already planning. 😛

EDIT 7: Updated my TBR photograph (just one book left I would like to try), updated my Kindle and TBR lists. Still a few days to go! This month has been so much fun so far. I am delighted with all I read so far.

EDIT 6: Updated my Kindle list + added a list of books under my physical TBR of books that were physical but which popped up throughout the month (library books/pre-orders). Not in the mood to make another photograph as it wouldn’t be complete (books had to go back to the library).

EDIT 5: Updated my Kindle list. There is one more book on my list, though I also got two more on my Kindle, but not sure if I will read/add them. Should update my physical photograph but too tired at the moment, will have to wait until I read more than one book.

EDIT 4: Updated my list on October 19th. Photograph updated, updated some reads, currently reading 2 horror books (Higurashi, Under Her Black Wings). As you can see from the photograph my library books didn’t work out.

EDIT 3: Updated my list on October 16th. Photograph to be updated, added some * to the titles as I forgot that, updated what I read.

EDIT 2: Updated my list on October 13th. Photograph updated. Pumpkin = read while red star = tried/didn’t like/not in the mood.

EDIT Updated my list on October 6th. Made a new photograph featuring new reads + marked which books I finished (with scary pumpkins). The Kindle list now shows what I tried/read.

As you can see MANY MANY books. I probably won’t read them all, but I do hope to read a good chunk of the creepy books! I am quite hyped to get reading, it has been hard these past months not to read them whenever I was in the mood for some horror… well, I did read a couple horror books because there is only so much I can resist. 😛

Do you have any reading plans? Are you excited about any of the books on my list? Let me know! And I want to wish everyone a very spooky and creepy Halloween/October month, may it be filled with lots of scary and mysterious reads.

  1. Wow, what a great list of Halloween books! I read never read a Darker Shade of Magic, though it’s been on my TBR for FOREVER and holy cow, I didn’t realize that Midnight Sun was such a BRICK. Like, that is one thick book! I hope you are able to read all of these books and more this month 🙂

    1. Thank you! I had fun getting books and making a TBR, though it was also hard to resist not reading them immediately. 😛 DSoM has been on my TBR for a few months, I hope to really read it. And haha, I was also quite surprised it was this big. I knew it had a lot of pages, but that doesn’t always mean a book so big. Thank you!

  2. Halloweentober is the best! Love that you have such a huge TBR, and it’s so great that you already made so much progress. Hope you’ll enjoy the rest of the TBR, and have an amazing Halloween(tober)!

    1. It is indeed! Aww, thanks! Can’t wait to read the rest of the books, thanks again and I hope you have an amazing Halloween(tober) as well.
