BEST READ OCTOBER

I have a feeling that the Best Reads posted during November may be thin on the ground!

Anyway, here are the October candidates. Remember - only votes on this blog will be counted!


1. Lottie, The Half-Vampire by Valinora Troy

2. The Vanished Man by Jeffrey Deaver

3. The House of Thunder by Dean Koontz

4. One Door from Heaven by Dean Koontz

5. The Incredulity of Fr. Brown by G.K. Chesterton

6. The Fog by James Herbert

7. The Five Muses Anthology

8. The Revenge of Queen Rose by Valinora Troy

9. Twilight Watch by Sergei Lukyanenko


It doesn't look many but a number of these books received 10/10 by their reviewers so I expect there will be some hot competition!

Voting closes lunchtime Tuesday 6th November, so get voting!

I'll have to go for The Five Muses! Written by some of my favourite people.

Inkpot said...

This is really hard, I love all these books. I think Revenge of Queen Rose, Lottie the half vampire and The Five Muses should all win equally.

Marvin said...

This is a very tough call, but The Revenge of Queen Rose gets my vote

Mungo said...

I agree with Inkpot, it is a hard month to choose. Some excellent books here. My vote goes to the Five Muses, a fantastic compliation.

I really liked Lottie the Half Vampire. Ongum is a character I would like to see more of.

The Five Muses

I loved The Five Muses, especially the story Lily (could read more about her dog) but I also loved The Revenge of Queen Rose. I think The Revenge gets my first vote and The Five Muses my second.

This is a tough vote, I loved so many, but The Revenge of Queen Rose is my favourite

Bee Gears said...

Lottie the Half Vampire was my idea of the perfect book. Well done Valinora Troy on another brilliant children's series. I can't wait for the second instalment.

The Lucky Diamond was my favourite book until I read The Revenge of Queen Rose, and now it is my second favourite book and The Revenge is my favourite. I couldn't put it down. I just sat and read it right through, neglecting everything else. I loved it.

I loved Lottie the half vampire. That cat, Ongum, is my favourite fictional character in years. Bring it on.

I think The Five Muses is the best!

It's a fantastic compilation by a wonderful array of authors!

Valpot said...

I find it very difficult to vote against Fr Brown, and his wonderful collection of detective tales.

However, I did REALLY enjoy THe Five Muses so I think it gets my vote!

I prefer horror - so it's Lottie for me!

Tottie the Demon Rabbit slayer for me!

Mango said...

Mango is still best.

But if not, then The Five Muses - cos they're ALL such wonderful writers, and I'm sure they'll ALL vote for MUNGO for DNOTY ')&!!
