Books in the Freezer Readathon

I haven’t participated in a readathon for a long time and I heard about Books in the Freezer. I thought it was a good idea to participate when it deals with one of my favorite genres and a holiday. Horror and Halloween. It takes place during Monday, October 1 to Sunday, October 14.

Here are the following challenges:

1. Read a horror book by a female author
2. Read a horror anthology or short story collection
3. Read a horror book featuring or by an POC or LGBTQ+ person
4. Read a horror book that has a movie adaptation
5. Read a book we’ve recommended on the podcast

Some of these books I’ll be borrowing from the library and I’ll be purchasing one.

Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice
Covers: by a female author, featuring a LGBTQ+ person, and has a movie adaptation.

Minion by L. A. Banks
Covers: by a female author, featuring a person of color.

Eveything That’s Underneath by Kristi DeMeester
Covers: by a female author, a short story collection, and recommended on the podcast.
Note: Here is an podcast interview with Kristi DeMeester.

In a Glass Darkly by Sheridan Le Fanu
Covers: a short story collection, featuring a LGBTQ+ person, and has a movie adaptation.
Note: I want to read Carmilla in particular.

Those four books cover the five challenges. I just hope I can complete the challenge without spreading myself too thin, as well as get the books on time! 🙂
