October’s known for horror movies, haunted houses, and creepy corn mazes. It’s one of my favorite months of the year! I love it!

On the other hand, this is probably not your thing. You’d rather stay at home with a big bowl of Halloween candy.

Fortunately, October has many romance releases to keep you busy! I had so much fun finding so many books coming out this month.

May October be an awesome reading month for you, especially if you’re a parent stuck with trick-r-treat duty handing out cand
