Halloween Bookcrossing
Along with my pun’kins, a large spider web and some lighted bones, I left out some trick-or-treat books for the kids tonight. These books are all registered with Bookcrossing, so it will be fun to see if anyone journals the books in the coming weeks.
The books were actually a big hit with the kids. Most of the kids stopped to look at the books before ringing the doorbell (though the first two kids that came around didn’t know that I had candy as well…oops). The books were gone with the fourth or fifth group of kids to come around. Andrew and I are going to remember this for next year — there is a used bookstore nearby that has a bunch of the Goosebumps books for just 50 cents each, so we’ll probably stock up next year and leave a bigger selection).
These are the books I released (with their Bookcrossing journal link):
- Jennifer, Hecate, Macbeth, William McKinley, and Me, Elizabeth by E. L. Konigsburg
- Deep Trouble (Goosebumps #19) by R. L. Stine
- The Scarecrow Walks at Midnight (Goosebumps #20) by R. L. Stine
- The Bad Beginning (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Book 1) by Lemony Snicket
- The Reptile Room (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Book 2) by Lemony Snicket
Here they are all laid out:
