halloween

i can't believe it's almost halloween. i haven't done any seasonally appropriate reading this october! (well, actually, i read ray bradbury's the halloween tree but i kind of hated it.) as soon as i finish bonk: the curious coupling of science and sex by mary roach, i plan to get to work reading some properly spooky stories and novels.

i don't actually have much in the way of horror novels. i like zombies (well, i don't know if "like" is exactly the right word) so i've read a lot of those- world war z, the living dead, the walking dead, etc. i think this year i'll try reading something different. maybe some more poe and lovecraft, and maybe i will finally get around to reading through house of leaves.

what are your favorite books for autumn or halloween?
