My Top Five Ghost Books
(in random order, click the images to view summaries and/or my reviews)
Beloved by Toni Morrison: Slavery and a baby ghost haunting the mother – true horror.
The Castle of Otranto by Horace
Walpole: A castle haunted by a giant knight ghost-in-armour…uh-oh!
The Winter Ghosts by Kate Mosse: The Pyrenean Mountains, the
spirits of the wronged people seeking a way to reveal their tragedy – a sad and
beautiful story.
Wake Unto Me by Lisa Cach:
A ghost who isn’t a ghost and not-a-ghost who might
be a ghost, and then there is a real ghost. Confusing? Go read the book, it all
makes sense.
Actually, go read all these books. They are amazing. What about
you? Do you have a favourite ghost book? Feel free to let me know about it in the comments.

Great post! I love ghost stories and pumpkin pie is one of the most marvelous substances on earth. :)
ReplyDeleteThe books ALL sound really good!
ReplyDeleteAnd I think I got a little drool on my keyboard from staring at that pic of the candied apples for too long!!!! They have a touristy place near where I am that makes them like the ones in the pic and more, all different toppings and such, haven't been in forever, so need to go now!
Wow- look at those apples....my mouth is drooling...:D
ReplyDeleteI love this season...
