Top Ten Tues

 

 Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. Each week a new Top Ten list will be posted. Everyone is welcome to join. Link back so everyone can check out other bloggers' lists. It's a fun way to get to know fellow bloggers.

This week is a Halloween freebie. What do I do??? I've done Hardy Boys/ Nancy Drew covers the last two weeks so I need to do something a bit different. I guess I'm just going to do some covers of books I want to read that have a spooky element.   


Alright I have already read this but it was freaky enough to qualify!






This is apparently a Netflix show now but I haven't checked it out as of yet. 


I guess this ended up being more of a thriller list than horror or really scary stuff, but *shrug* this is what I thought of on short notice. Still, it reminded me of some great spooky reads from the last coupla years!

    I remember seeing "Wilder Girls" everywhere back at its release. :)

    Comics totally count as books, and I'd be very happy to see more! DC needs to come out with one of those big hardback books of the Weird Mystery Tales. I'd have that in a heartbeat! Great list!

    The covers of a few of these books are enough to send me into nightmares. Eek! My post here has a participation feature. I hope you'll play along.

    I really really love the cover of Wilder Girls, it was definitely why I bought it in the first place then I got around to reading the synopsis for it right after.

    I remember those comic books. I was a millionaire, then my mother threw them away. https://pmprescott.blogspot.com/2020/10/ttt-102720.html

    The Get Even cover definitely looks like it’d be a Netflix show! I’ll have to look out for that one

    I must get round to reading Wilder Girls at some point! That cover is wonderfully creepy!

    After a bonkers and hectic few weeks back at work, I've managed to find time for this week's Halloween TTT... hope you can pop by!

    Ooh nice! I went with creepy covers this week too! This reminds me that I need to finish the Scooby Apocalypse series!

    You obviously think girls are evil. Have you noticed that just about all your books feature girls on the covers?? We are not THAT bad Greg...!

    I've got The Perfect Wife on my TBR list, something different, I know. Will have to be in the mood for it.

    Gone Girl is great! I highly recommend that one. Wilder Girls has been on my TBR for a while. I want to read that one real bad. Happy reading!

    I love how the scary book covers are very simple but still terrifying. Like GONE GIRL - why are pieces of floating hair SO scary??

    Happy TTT!

    I think it's hard to scare me with books. With reading you don't have the scary music in the background to lend suspense or expertly timed scenes to shock and surprise. At least the well-made scary movies anyhow. Not many of them out there anymore. :)

    Great picks, Greg! The Wilder Girls cover is still one of my favourites but I also really like the cover for Bad Girls with Perfect Faces! I have a feeling it'll be a really accurate depiction of the characters 😛

    I wish I was reading scary books this month! To be honest this year has been a disaster for reading. All I want to do right now is re-read Harry potter over and over!

    That Songs from the Deep cover is moving! I love it! The only one I read on here was Gone Girl. Honestly, I found the first half of it boring. I think it was just the angsty mood it's written in or something. I ended up really liking the book. Nice list!

    I did something similar with my TTT post today...covers with ghostly/gothic vibes. Mostly because I was too tired to do something more clever. :)

  36. Jen at Introverted ReaderOctober 27, 2020 at 2:03 PM

    These all look spooky! I love your idea for the comics covers. I would have to look at the covers for the Locke & Key comics and the Morning Glories comics. Those are probably the two creepiest comics I've read but I can't remember how well the covers reflect that.

    I also tend to do books that have a spooky element, but aren't super scary. I can't handle things that are super scary! Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!

    I didn't read as much horror this month as I intended to, so it'll end up bleeding into November. Appropriate, I suppose. And anyway, 2020 has been horrible enough!

    Wilder Girls has to be my favorite creepy cover ever- it is messed up but somehow still so pretty? Idk but I loved it. The first comic cover is creepy too- I think because it is so realistic feeling? Like it's fine, that's what downtown Cleveland will look like by next week, you know? I think sometimes that the realistic stuff is the scariest!

  42. Katherine POctober 27, 2020 at 8:16 PM

    These are all fantastic but there's something especially creepy about Wilder Girls and Gone Girl. I don't know exactly why but those two especially creep me out!

    Wilder Girls has such a creepy cover; I'm curious though. I'm waiting for the audio version of The Perfect Wife from the library. This is a great assortment of creepy reads.
