The FraterFest readathon is back, courtesy of Caffeinated Book Reviewer! You know October is the month for scary reads, right? And it seems like lately there haven't been as many readathons and scary events in October as there were a few years ago. I could be wrong, but it seems like a few have fallen by the wayside. And that's the way of things, but when I saw Kimba bringing this one back, well... I had to participate!
FraterFest is about the spooky and paranormal reads. The readathon runs from Oct. 11th to Oct 16th and it's easy to jump in- the sign up post is here. You can read thrillers, suspense, horror, mysteries... you name it. I'm still finalizing my TBR for the RAT but here's a look at a few that I've picked.
Are YOU doing FraterFest??
Are YOU doing FraterFest??
I need to do this I think. Because I *should* be done with all my November review books by then, and I have always wanted to do scary books for Halloween. Maybe I will cave and buy myself Echoes by then hah.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to have to sign up for this! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh, I did not know about this! I think I will join!!
ReplyDeleteI'm serious thinking of doing this, I'll have to go through my books and see what I can come up with. The three books you picked look pretty good, I hope you enjoy them :)
ReplyDeleteNo I won't be doing this one as I'd have to do challenges, post on social media and change my Goodreads shelves to join in. Too much time and hassle for one week of reading! I wouldn't have time to read if I did all that! I am doing my usual Spooky Booky month where I'll be reading a ton of horror books all through October and posting tasty book and film reviews!
ReplyDeleteTHanks for sharing Greg. I am excited myself and cannot wait!
ReplyDeleteI don't do well with challenges but watching everyone else participate kinds of spurs me on to read more without the pressure lol

I am going to stick with my October reading themes. I never seem to do well with these short challenges. Ha ha. 🎃
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun! I don't know if I can fit it in, but I might just try!
ReplyDeleteAs you know I rather chose Blogoween but I hope you'll have a ton of fun doing this one! Sophie @bewareofthereader
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea! Each October I mean to start Darkhouse by Karina Halle and then binge the rest of that series. But I get too nervous and paranoid and scared and don't ever start them HA! Maybe this year will be the year....*fingers crossed*. Yay you for being braver than me and I hope you love these books!

Who doesn't love a good spooky/paranormal read...especially in October? What is it about this time of year that makes everyone want a scary read? Me included. :)
ReplyDeleteI always say I'm going to do seasonal reads but then never do. I really love the Stoker and Holmes series
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of signing up - love a darker read in October (& autumn in general).
ReplyDeleteI WANT to do this but challenges sometimes give me anxiety! The Pressure!!! I will enjoy reading how your books are for the challenge.
ReplyDeleteUh...no Gorgeous Greg, I love Kimberly, but my days of scary reads and scary movies have passed by many moons ago, and I don't think they're coming back(lol) Hugs and Happy Thursday! RO
