With Halloween right around the corner, now is a great time to pickup a spooky book to get you in the mood!

The first book I would recommend is The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman, winner of the Newbery Medal in 2009.  The book is not only set mostly in a graveyard, it starts with multiple murders!

Another book to check out is The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff.  This has a nice creepy cover and deals with a changeling who replaced a human baby 16 years ago.

Lastly, check out Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs.  This book is filled with bizarre pictures that will make you glad it is only fiction!

Feel free to leave your own spook suggestion in the comments!
