Evolving Perceptions

Hi Lovelies,  These are 3 books that I recommend to get into the Halloween spirit. Goosebumps is my introduction to the horror genre. Welcome of the Dead House is one of my favorite book from the series. I remember staying up at night with a flashlight sneaking to finish the book. While I recommend Home Before Dark by Riley Sager if you enjoy the series The Haunting of Hill House. I didn't expect the twists and I devour the book in one night as I just couldn't put it down.   Finally, the list is not complete without the Master of Horror Literature, Edgar Allan Poe. My favorites are The Cask of Amontillado, The Pit and the Pendulum, and The Masque of the Red Death What are your Halloween book recommendations?  Please tell me below.

I'm sorry that I have been MIA lately. I went on a vacation to Maldives and as soon as a came back I got sick that is why I haven't been uploading here. But check out my instagram  @isabelsamonte  because I post there regularly and also I have created a separate instagram for books and other bookish posts @ @reading_bella  . Moving on, I just got out of a bad reading slump and because of that I was behind my reading challenge. So, I decided to do a weeklong readathon so I can get back on track, which is 120 books. My goal was to read one book a day so seven books in total but I only read 6 and half books. I did not finished The Song of Achilles because I spend my whole Sunday in bed because I was not feeling well and also I watched the World Cup finals instead of reading. Two of the books that I read were re-read. I love re-reading books especially my favorites and most of the books that I read were contemporary.  1. When Dimple Met Rishi by Sandya Menon...

This haul is very interesting because I got a lot of books using my globe rewards points plus National Bookstore was having a huge summer sale. And also I received two of the books that I won in two separate giveaways. So basically I spend less but got a lot of books this month, which I am very happy about.  1.  Half-Bad by Sally Green Wanted by no one. Hunted by everyone. Sixteen-year-old Nathan lives in a cage: beaten, shackled, trained to kill. In a modern-day England where two warring factions of witches live amongst humans, Nathan is an abomination, the illegitimate son of the world's most terrifying and violent witch, Marcus. Nathan's only hope for survival is to escape his captors, track down Marcus, and receive the three gifts that will bring him into his own magical powers—before it's too late. But how can Nathan find his father when there is no one safe to trust, not even family, not even the girl he loves? Half Bad is an international sensation and the...

1. All's Fair in Blog and War by Chrissie Peria  Five Cuevas @fivetravels Three guesses to where I'm going next. Starts with an M. Ends with a U. Has a lechon named after it. #travel Twenty-something travel blogger Five thinks she has hit the jackpot when she gets invited to glittering Macau for an all-expense-paid bloggers tour. Think majestic old churches, sparkling casinos, exhilarating bungee jumps, and the world's most unforgettable egg tarts. The trip is practically perfect, except for one little glitch. She gets assigned to be travel buddies with Jesse, the world's most infuriating photo blogger, and it's definitely war at first sight.  Will Five let Jesse turn her dream vacation into a total nightmare? Or will falling in love be on the itinerary? 2. If the Dress Fits by Carla De Guzman Martha Aguas kind of has it all--she's an accountant who loves numbers, an accident-prone puppy that loves her, and the perfect w...
