Things That Go Bump In The Night: October Read-a-Thon!


Yes, I know, another read-a-thon! What can I say...I love them. =O)

Details from Lori:
It's one of my favorite times of the year - - the leaves are changing and nights are getting cooler (depending on where you live), Halloween is soon upon us and it's the perfect setting to curl up with a good scary book. As such, I've decided to have a spooky themed Readathon here at Psychotic State Book Reviews during the month of October and would love for you to join me!

How to Sign Up
To sign up, make a post on your blog, Facebook or Twitter about participating. Add the THINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT button to your sidebar, linking back to this post so others can join in if they wish. Please help to spread the word! Beginning on October 1, add your blog posts using the Mr. Linky widget that will be below.

Rules
The rules are, there are no rules! (TM Kenicky, Grease). Anyone may participate. You can read one book during the month or one for each day, whatever you choose. You can join in today or at any time during the month of October. If you don't have a blog, you may use Facebook, Twitter or Goodreads. 

Books to Read
Any type of horror, or sub-genre of horror, including the paranormal, supernatural, suspense, mystery, thriller (including murder, psychological, supernatural or spooky driven/themed), monster (vampires, werewolves, witches, ghosts, zombies, aliens and the like) and monster mash up, and true crime. Any book that makes you squirm can qualify! 

Posts
Post your book reviews, your thoughts on scary books, interviews with authors of scary books, your top ten scariest books, etc. Any post dealing with all things horror and spooky will be accepted and appreciated.

Giveaways
Once THINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT ends, I will be giving away some of the books that I have reviewed during the month to lucky readers. Titles to be determined. Each Readathon post will count as an entry toward the giveaway. The more books you review during the month, the greater your chance to win! 

Event Details
* Kick off: Saturday, October 1 at 12:00 a.m., your local time
* Closes: Monday, October 31 at 11:59 p.m., your local time

Now, if I can just force myself to write my reviews in a timely manner!
