Waiting on Wednesday ~ More Tales to Keep You Up at Night by Dan Poblocki
Evening all!
Happy Wednesday! OMG!! Tomorrow my vacation starts, WHOOO! So excited! Welcome to a new Waiting on Wednesday, the last one for now, the next will be in September again.
Today I am super duper eagerly awaiting More Tales to Keep You Up at Night by Dan Poblocki! The next book in the series (see my review for Tales to Keep You Up At Night here) and I cannot wait! It releases next month, but I won’t be reading it immediately if I can get it then, I will be putting it up on my Spooktober TBR, just like how I read the first book last year around that time. Wouldn’t it be nice if we got more books like this and I can make it a little tradition?
Last time we got some spoooooky tales told through a mysterious book, but this time a boy finds a satchel of tapes! I love the sound of that and I cannot wait to see what kind of terrifying tales we will get, the blurb so far promises cursed sea shells, classroom skeletons who want a fancy new skin. I am in. I am already prepared to be terrified. Bring it. Plus, I love the cover how it all ties together. The boy listening to the tapes while darkness is nearer and nearer and BOOOOO.
Are you waiting for this one? Let me know! Oh, and I am always open for suggestions for books like this one~
From the co-author of the #1 New York Times bestselling series The Magic Misfits comes a spectacularly creepy follow-up to Tales to Keep You Up at Night that will keep you up way past bedtime.
Perfect for fans of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark !
Gilbert is visiting his injured brother, Ant, in the hospital, when he sees a shadowed figure leave behind a satchel filled with old cassette tapes. Despite a strange, garbled voicemail telling him “Don’t listen to the tapes,” Gilbert can’t resist playing them and listening to the chilling stories they reveal: tales of cursed seashells, of doors torn through the fabric of the universe, of cemeteries that won’t let you leave, of a classroom skeleton that hungers for new skin. And wandering through all the stories, a strange man named November, who might not be a man at all…
As Gilbert keeps listening to the tapes, he slowly realizes that the stories may hold the key to helping Ant. But in order to save his brother, he may be opening a door to something much, much worse…
With hair-raising, spine-chilling prose, Dan Poblocki delivers a collection of interconnected stories that are sure to keep you up late in the night.
