Last week I posted an article on Halloween activities. I wrote down a few of my favorite books and realized that I had a huge list of books to share. And so I compiled them and organized them to share here for you! Happy reading!

P.S. I linked the books through several different websites. But almost every book can be found on the big sellers (Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Thrift Books).
