All Hallows’ Read- Join the Party!

Here’s a new tradition I can get behind- All Hallow’s Read, first proposed here by Neil Gaiman. What do you do to participate? Give someone a scary book this Halloween, or at least the week of Halloween. October 25 was the All Hallow’s Read Book Drop, a day to leave a scary book in a random location for the next person who sees it. Of course, you could do this any day, so don’t let the fact that the date has passed stop you. Even if you don’t feel like leaving a book for a random stranger, you can always send one to a friend, or a kid, assuming that you like them, pick something appropriate, and end up encouraging them to read more. Or you could even do a round robin. Hey, however you want to do it is great! Post below and tell me what book you gave or how you celebrated All Hallow’s Read, and I’ll randomly pick a winner for a signed copy of The Night Strangers by Chris Bohjalian, who I just met yesterday, and whose book, so far, is very cool. Give a book this Halloween, or in the words of Spook House Dave, share a scare!
