Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature from The Broke and the Bookish. This week we are listing books that put us in a Halloween mood. Blood and gore is not really what I look for in my escapist reading, though I can appreciate a fun scary read now and again.
These are the books that have caught my eye this Halloween season:
1. Something Strange and Deadly by Susan Dennard – Steampunk and Zombies!
2. Ten by Gretchen McNeil – Inspired by Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None.
3. Foretold: 14 Tales of Prophecy and Prediction edited by Carrie Ryan – Short stories that I’ve been reading for a quick spooky fix. 
4. The Dark Heroine by Abigail Gibbs – Sexy, scary, Vampire Romance.
5. The Spindlers by Lauren Oliver – Middle Grade Fantasy reminiscent of Coraline.
6. I Know What You Did Last Summer by Lois Duncan – My first horror read that got me hooked – from here I moved on to Stephen King.
7. Don’t Turn Around by Michelle Gagnon – Scary mystery thriller- such a creepy cover too!
8. 172 Hours on the Moon by Johan Harstad – Outer Space Horror.
9. A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness – Vampire romance, witches, and history.
10. Undead by Kirsty McKay – Funny zombie horror!
Don´t Turn Around looks great and the title alone makes me want to read it. Ten is high on the wishlist.
Dearly, Departed by Lia Habel
Whoops, Dearly, Departed shouldn´t be in the comment. Anways!
The only book I’ve read on your list is The Spindlers. I should change that.
You are adding to my wish list. Today’s list topic is going to be fun to hop around to and gather titles.
Ooh interesting list. I read A Discovery of Witches and really liked it, but haven’t read any of the others … yet.
Great list, I’ll take these as a TBR guide 🙂 I already included some for myself.

*GIVEAWAY*
Ohh Undead came in my mailbox yesterday! I can’t wait to get started on it.
Great list 😀
Something Strange and Deadly was an awesome book! I’m reading Ten right now and really liking it so far 🙂
I loved A Discovery of Witches and I’ve been wanting to read Ten (loved Agatha Christie when I was younger). I don’t remember what got me started on King when I was younger, it might have been that Lois Duncan book…
I want to read 172 Hours on the Moon! I saw the cover with the eye and it was completely creepy. I’ll let you know how House of Leaves is after I read it 🙂 I’m still loving Something Strange and Deadly and I want to read past the sections for the read along, lol.

Check out my new meme Cover Crush!
Ooh, I want to read Undead–I entered to win a free copy on goodreads, but alas, I didn’t win. 🙁
I am interested in #10 and #1 even though I haven’t read either!
I could go for some fuuny horror with undead, might have to try that. Could not get into A Discovery of Witches…but Lois Duncan is a big thumbs up.
I haven’t read any of these yet, though I’m keen to try 1, 2 and 5 on your list- I’m skepticle about reading Ten, though, because I’m thinking it might just completely freak me out to beyond help! (: Great list! I’m loving the modern books on it!
