Friday Flashback: Suspense and Mystery Books for your Halloween Night

Book lists and movie recommendation for your Halloween night! 🎃

Hello, dearies, and happy Halloween! 🎃

I didn’t have a new book list for you today, but I did have a little Friday Flashback in mind.

If you’re still looking for something spooky, mysterious, strange, or simply Halloween-adjacent to read before October officially disappears, here are a few older posts from the blog worth revisiting:

10 Suspense, Horror, Mystery Books for Halloween
A mix of suspenseful, eerie and mysterious reads for the season.

Friday Flashback: Stardust

Time to talk about one of my fav movies… that somehow doesn’t get as much buzz as it should. And also the book where it came from: Stardust.

Hello, dearies!

Have you ever liked a movie so much that you think the book cannot be possibly be bad?
Yeah, that’s me with Stardust, the movie.

This is perhaps one of my top 10 most watched movies of all time, I know it, I recognise the themes, the music, I can quote it. When I read the book? It was a whole different experience, and not in the fangirling, awesome way.

TBT: The Dream Thief

It is a tale of dragons and magic, in a country faraway from mine, and yet, I feel like I could fall into this world all over again each time I read The Dream Thief.

Hello, dearies! It is time for a new appreciation and a look back into a book that I thought I had liked from the start, but when reading the original review, I found out I had not. But after the second read, I loved it.

The Dream Thief, is book 2 in the Drakon Series by Shana Abé (one of my fav authors). And the strange thing is that I really thought I had liked it the first time as well, but it seems I found Lia annoying and the whole thing as too much explaining.

TBT: Catching Fire

The 75th Hunger Games is the closest we had to the 50th Hunger Games for a long time, and no surprise it was one of the most fav reads. Catching Fire TBT is in session!

Hello, dearies! 🔥

Are you excited about Sunrise on the Reaping? The movie is growing closer, yet, not fast enough.

With it. We keep going back to the 50th Hunger Games and of course, Haymitch, and naturally to Catching Fire (The 75th Hunger Games), in the little bit of the book when Katniss and Peeta watched the recording of Haymitch’s games as they were going on their way to The Capitol.

TBT: The Hunger Games [THG Book 1]

“Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor.”

Hello, dearies!

Happy Hunger Games!

That’s not it, I mean, hello, it’s been a while, and welcome to a new Throwback Thursday!

Have you read The Hunger Games trilogy? Or book 1: The Hunger Games?

It can be confusing when talking about it.

I have read it but one time, and it was enough for me. I did like it, of course, and I was surprised because I first hadn’t wanted to read because of how Katniss says things, her POV and voice were a bit strange for me at first.

But I got used to it.

I have a full review for all three books in the trilogy here on the blog. But, today is the Throwback Thursday of THG because it’s been so long since I read this book, and because I felt like rambling a bit about it.

Beautiful Disaster: The Odd Queries that Made Me Laugh

“I knew the second I met you
that there was something about you I needed. Turns out it
wasn’t something about you at all. It was just you.”

You can listen to this blog post or read it below.

Hello, everyone! 🤗

I know I shouldn’t laugh. But I did when I read some of the questions online about Beautiful Disaster.

So, I will answer this odd questions because it’s fun, and I like talking about books, more so the ones about the Maddox brothers.

Have you read this book? If you have not, then there might be spoilers ahead, this is the warning for spoilers. I’ll start.

Friday Flashback: The Chamber of Secrets

“A rift began to grow between Slytherin and the others. Slytherin wished to be more selective about the students admitted to Hogwarts.”

Welcome, dearies! 🍁

Another Friday, another Flashback, this one for Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets, book 2 of the Wizarding Saga.

To go along with the newest episode of the podcast: Ep. 2 of Season 3 of EachPage Flow, I decided to go back to The Chamber of Secrets, but there were two things I didn’t say on the podcast because they skipped my mind as I was rambling about the book.

Sorry, there is a lot on my mind.

You can check out the full episode below, I put it here because I’m nice like that. 🙂

So, the dueling club at Hogwarts started by Lockhart, and the introduction to the word ‘mudblood’ or how pure-blooded families see those born of Muggles but with the gift of magic like: Hermione Granger. These are the two things that I later thought, oh wait, I missed something.

Alright, first dueling.

The Bane Chronicles: The Fall of the Hotel Dumort

“What do you do?” the woman asked.
“This and that,” Magnus said.
“Are you in fashion? You look like you’re in fashion.”
“No,” he said. “I am fashion.”

Friday Flashback: Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices)

“Let me give you a piece of advice. The handsome young fellow who’s trying to rescue you from a hideous fate is never wrong. Not even if he says the sky is purple and made of hedgehogs.”

Wow, that took me back, just thinking about it for a second.

Hello, dearies! 🩷

Did you know I am Shadowhunter fan? No? Really? You must know, surely.

Anywho… Clockwork Angel, another one from the Shadow World that I started reading, put down, picked it up again, thought about about what it was about, tried hard to get into what was happening in those first pages, and then when I got it a bit, I started reading full-steam ahead. It was like the world opened up and dropped me in London.

Too much?
