It's Halloween again, which means we have to read a scary story. So my first pick is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson. He's from Edinburgh, Scotland and I got to drive by the house he lived in. Edinburgh is kind of a spooky city and it's no wonder we got the likes of Dr. Jekyll and Harry Potter out of it. But I had a hard time picking just one book for Halloween, so if this doesn't strike your fancy try: "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies," which I've heard is hysterical, or "The Graveyard book," by the same guy who wrote Stardust. Just a couple more "dark" books on my list to read! Happy Halloween!

I'm going to have to go through the list of books we've had recently and read through them all next summer. I fear all I have time for now is textbook reading. :(
Pooh on you! Guess what. Dr. Jekyll is only seventy something pages. You could read that on a Sunday afternoon! That'll bring in the spirit.
