BOOK TAG: Halloween Creatures 2.0

Halloween Creatures 2.png

Today it’s time for a new tag! My lovely friend Cora tagged me in the Halloween Creatures 2.0 tag the other week and today I’m here to share my answers. Thanks Cora!

The tag was originally created by Anthony at Keep Reading Forward (who also created the original version). So go and check out their posts too!

Witch

A Magical Character or Book
The Surface Breaks
I adored Louise O’Neill’s feminist retelling of The Little Mermaid.

Werewolf

The Perfect Book to Read at Night
Sweetpea (Sweetpea, #1)
Sweetpea is shocking in the sense that Rhiannon is both outrageously hilarious and a serial killer. A great read at night if you don’t want to be terrified!

Frankenstein

A Book that Truly Shocked You
The Call
People told me I would enjoy this. I did love it. But I did not enjoy it. It is gruesome and horrifying!

The Devil

A Dark, Evil Character
Frozen Charlotte
I HAVE to agree with Cora on this one. The bloody dolls from these books by Alex Bell absolutely terrified me. I can almost hear their laughter ringing out and their scraping against the glass windows. They still give me shivers.

Grim Reaper

A Character that Should Never Have Died
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Harry Potter, #7)
I mean, where do I begin????? Fred! Tonks! Lupin! Hedwig! AND SO ON.

Zombie

A Book that Made You “Hungry” for More
City of Ghosts
As soon as I put this book down I immediately wanted a new adventure with Cassidy and Jacob. I can’t wait to see where their ghostly adventures will take them next!

Gargoyle

A Character that You Would Protect at All Cost
Only Love Can Break Your Heart
Whilst I’m 100% certain that Reiko would never think she needed protecting, I just want to keep her wrapped up a soft blanket protected from the pain of her grief.

Vampire

A Book that Sucked the Life Out of You
Paper Butterflies
I’m not sure I’ve EVER cried this much at a book. Well, maybe one or two others. But after this book finished I just felt SO drained. Emotionally I was completely exhausted. I remember sitting on my bed sobbing into my pillow for a good half hour.

Ghost

A Book that Still Haunts You
Okay so this is totally random but when I was about 10 I read one of my Mum’s books. I can’t remember what it was called but I remember that it was about some girls who were sent to live in Ireland in a convent. The nuns were absolutely evil and abusive towards the girls. It terrified me and I’ve always felt slightly uncomfortable around nuns since. (Please don’t judge 10 year old me…)

Demon

A Book that Really Scared You
You (You, #1)
This book TERRIFIE me. I think it’s the fact this is a book about a man stalking a woman and it’s written in second person narrative from his point of view. I was SO on edge throughout the entire time I read this.

Skeleton

A Character You Have a Bone to Pick With
Goodbye, Perfect
I ADORE Eden and I love Bonnie but both of these girls need a bit of a talking to for very different reasons!

Mummy

A Book You Would Preserve Throughout Time
Wing Jones
Um… this one is obvious for me! This book means more to me than words can say and I would definitely want to preserve it forever!

Creepy Doll

A Cover too Scary to Look At
Say Her Name
I’m going with the same answer as Cora again here. I recently bought myself a copy of Say Her Name by Juno Dawson to read this Halloween and I’m already scared! I’ve not even opened the book yet…
