Gothic has been a suggestion on the last couple of annual theme polls and this year I decided to pull the trigger...sort of. I like the themes to be as expansive as possible to give participants a lot of options, so along with Gothic, I threw in the descriptor of "spooky." Certain breeds (ha!) of paranormals, urban fantasy, romantic suspense, and yes, Gothic - let your Spooky Season flag fly this month!
However, remember that the themes are totally optional. Life is hard enough as it is, maybe you just want some brain candy fluff this month. That's fine! Remember the themes are always optional. The goal is to read something, anything, out of your TBR.
It is certainly not too late to join the Challenge (to be honest it's never too late). You can get more details and get links to the current list of participants on the #TBRChallenge 2024 Information Page.

Totally raided my Zebra Gothic side of Mount TBR for this, which of course only made me want *more* Zebra Gothics, but wow, they are incredibly scarce on the secondhand market! I guess those who loved them back in the day kept them, because I think I only managed to order two that I was even able to find.
ReplyDeleteI'm going with a UF/light horror that's been on my TBR for a couple years.
ReplyDeleteAL: I've been a slump of the "I don't want to read anything" variety but I finally unearthed and started a Harlequin Intrigue with Gothic vibes last night. It's an Intrigue, so here's hoping I plot through it and can get a review up for Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteEurohackie: I am ridiculously excited to hear about your pick! The Zebra Gothic line had come and gone before I got heavy into romance.
Jen: I'm curious to see how many folks go with UF or darker paranormal this month.
