Werewolf Guest Post

Do you have an abundance of lunar energy?  Do dogs bark their heads off at you and then roll to their backs, showing their submission to your greatness?  Is silver not really your color?  Well, my friends, you might be...

a Werewolf!

(Or a Werewolf Supporter!)

All this week on Starting the Next Chapter, there will be guest posts informing readers about the baddest creatures of the night: 

Ghosts with Marla of Starting the Next Chapter

Zombies with Kyla of Kyla Novelista

Witches with Nikki of Books Most Wanted

 Vampires with Louise of Between the Covers

Werewolves with *ahem* DJL of Denim-Jacket Librarian Dishes

Demons with Christy of The Reader Bee

On Sunday, October 30th, you will have the chance to vote for your favorite creature in a poll to decide who is the baddest brawler of Halloween, and naturally, when you think of brawlers you'll think of werewolves.  On October 31st, Marla will announce the winning brawler (which is going to be the furred ones, right?) AND there will even be a GIVEAWAY.

To get more information on Werewolves, please head over to Starting the Next Chapter to view my guest post and show the weres some love!  Just remember to bring lots of steak cooked rare, and vote for Werewolves on Sunday!  You won't regret it... unless you don't like shedding.  At which point, vote for Werewolves anyway!

TGIF Follow Friday

TGIF is a weekly feature created and hosted byGReads! that re-caps the week’s posts and has different question each week.

This Friday's Question:

Spooktacular Reads: Which books do you consider festive Halloween reads? Which stories have chilled you to the bone?

Goodness, there are so many books out there that are both festive Halloween reads AND ones that will chill you to the bone.  Below are a few that I have either read firsthand or have heard about and believe they are great spooktacular reads. 

Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake
After reading so many reviews on this one, I'm definitely certain it would make for the perfect Halloween read on a stormy night with a blanket wrapped around you.  Or maybe not on a stormy night?  Or maybe not at night at all? 

The Monstrumologist Series by Rick Yancey
Doesn't that cover just scream creepy?  Also, how can you go wrong with a scientist who bases his theories of science off the possibility that creatures that go bump in the night, namely monsters, are supposed to exist?  The first book was especially creepy, and you can view my review here. 

Bewere the Night edited by Ekaterina Sedia
This book even warns you (in a pun) on the cover about going out at night.  What can be more frightening than something that can disguise him or herself as human while hiding something far more powerful and more frightening inside?  I haven't read this one yet, but I definitely intend to.

What books do you find perfect for Halloween?
