Oct TBR : Victober , Gothtober & more!!

[@CharlieBrookReads]

What are you guys reading in October? Let me know!!

[@Bookishtravels1]

I might join in this year, looking what books to read as i am watching :)

[@scallydandlingaboutthebooks]

Tess and Earnest, two of my favourite Victorian works and really getting the extremes of misery and humour into your month. I am looking forward to Horrorstör as a contrast in my month.

[@CharlieBrookReads]

I read Horrorstor yesterday!! So so good!!

[@scallydandlingaboutthebooks]

@@CharlieBrookReads oh good 👍

[@YourTrueShelf]

I love Tess so much!! Also loved the importance of being earnest. Lots of exciting possibilities. Also listening to a study in scarlet on Audrey, it's great. Have a brilliant reading month. Xx

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Going to try Tess on my e-reader. Love Sherlock so I hope you enjoy it as well ❤️Happy reading Sarah 😘❤️

[@itslatishagarcia]

Love seeing Death Note on a TBR! Happy to have you join us!

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Thank you 😘❤️

[@katiejlumsden]

Such a great TBR 📚

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Thank you Katie 😘❤️

[@CharlesHeathcote]

I will always throw short books at folk to fulfill challenges, especially when those folk are so intent on reading Tess of the darn d'Urbervilles.

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Haha too wise Charlie!! ☺️

[@benreadsgood]

We are celebrating ugly, not deriding it! Although I did struggle to find ugly covers on my shelves which says a lot about by buying habits 😂 You have so many prompts the go - I’m impressed you manage to keep up with it all 👏

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Definitely celebrating the ugly. I don’t mind calling books ugly just struggled to call the one Alice gave me as ugly. ❤️

[@jenniferlovesbooks]

Sounds like you have some great books to look forward to 😁

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Thank you Jen!! ❤️

[@PageTurnersWithKatja]

Tess of the D'urbervilles is brilliant, and I'll be rereading The Woman in White for Victober. I need to decide how many things to commit to in October so far it's just prompts for victober and gothtober. I need to record my video tomorrow and still keep changing my mind on some of the books 😂 Great picks. Nesting looks quite thick!

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Just be kind to yourself Katja 😘❤️

[@michaelgarcia2973]

Hi Charlie...Happy Viktober. Wishing to enjoy a Hamburger with you...Reading The Book The Rich Man by the Belgian Georges Simenon.

[@royreadsanything]

Ooh the Audrey App sounds brilliant, thanks for the tip! I'm mainly in the group read at the moment with Armadale by Wilkie Collins on the way. I hope you enjoy the Woman in White, I love it.

[@CharlieBrookReads]

It’s an amazing app esp if you love classics!! Definitely want to try and get to Woman in White. I hope you enjoy Armadale ☺️

[@royreadsanything]

@CharlieBrookReads I love Audrey so far - very elegant design and great choices. I've bought _The Time Machine_ and will probably try the free _Mrs Dalloway_. Also curious about _Ulysses_ which I read on a group read earlier this year and want another go at - this could be a good companion. I like the fresh voices of the Audrey guides 👍

[@CharlieBrookReads]

@@royreadsanything so pleased you tried it and are enjoying it ☺️

[@actual-spinster]

i hope u enjoy rereading dracula ! & the rest of ur reading :) 💕

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Thank you 😘❤️

[@anges_book_chatter]

Being so lovely about book covers made me giggle. I want to get to Tess, not sure I will get to it this time as I want to read/listen to The Moonstone first. 🥰

[@CharlieBrookReads]

The Moonstone is brilliant!! Can’t wait to hear what you think of it Ange❤️

[@susprime7018]

I loved Horrorstor and now I'm reading his The Final Girl Support Group. It has been a pleasant October so far with fast reads, Witch Wood by John Buchan is not going to be fast, set in 1644 Scotland but lovely descriptions of scenery and even Halloween already mentioned, it's about a minister too, but 31 pages sounds perfect and free even better, so I downloaded The Rector by Mrs. Margaret Oliphant, thanks for the tip. Read Tess in high shool, Jude the Obscure is good too, as is the Mayor of Casterbridge. ❤

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Well they sound good!! I definitely want to read more by Grady Hendrix. Happy reading lovely ❤️

[@EllenFelicity]

Great list. Really interesting to hear that you loved Madding Crowd, I have been meaning to read a Hardy book for years. I do Gothtober, but next year I might also try to combine these readathons because there's just so much great gothic Victorian literature ❤

[@CharlieBrookReads]

It’s good idea about combining them!! What are you reading for Gothtober?

[@EllenFelicity]

@@CharlieBrookReads gonna start with The Safekeep cos I haven't got to it yet. Then afterwards I've got a long list I'm going to mood read from, includes modern things like T Kingfisher and Andy Weir's books, and classics like The Yellow Wallpaper and short stories by Mary Shelley and Elizabeth Gaskell. I'm very hyped!

[@CharlieBrookReads]

@@EllenFelicity All those sound fab!! I enjoyed The Safekeep and I hope you have fun with all your other picks too☺️📚❤️

[@EllenFelicity]

@@CharlieBrookReads thank you, I hope you enjoy your reads too 🥰

[@OliviasCatastrophe]

The Moonstone is one I absolutely adored! And I enjoyed the woman in white as well although you do have to be a little more patient with that one. I love dracula! One of my favourites as the classic vampire novel to read. I know you enjoyed horrorstor now which makes me so happy to hear :D Glad you're continuing to enjoy death note, I need to read another volume as well soon. It's lovely to read a Baldwin every October. Happy reading!

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Thank you Olivia ☺️

[@LeanneRose]

Hope you’re having a great reading month! X

[@CharlieBrookReads]

It’s been good thank you lovely ☺️ ❤️

[@spreadbookjoy]

Having a booktube binge this morning. Catching up on mentions first and I watched this a while back but didn’t leave a comment! So here is my comment 😂 I also have the first Slow Horses, though I actually bought it for Davey. Therefore it’s mine as well!

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Haha yeah for all the book stealing 😂❤️

[@jimsbooksreadingandstuff]

Enjoy your victober/October/gothtober reading... 👻

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Thank you Jim ❤️

[@ClareReads]

I’ve got a few spooky ones on my Kindle for October to get into the Halloween spirit. Will definitely pick up a Sherlock Holmes as well, although I never met Alice I adored her videos and would like to read something she really loved

[@CharlieBrookReads]

Oooh which spooky ones? It’s lovely that you are going to read some Sherlock. I know Alice would have been very appreciative of all the love and people reading books for her ❤️

[@WhatVictoriaRead]

💛💛💛

[@CharlieBrookReads]

❤️❤️❤️

[@ariannefowler455]

You have some great picks! I love the Audrey app. I am working my way through all of Thomas Hardy so I will be reading The Mayor of Casterbridge. I would love to get to Dracula (w/Audrey app) but I am not sure I can fit it in. I guess I could start it in October and carry it into November. Happy Victober!

[@CharlieBrookReads]

I definitely want to read that one too at some point. Happy Victober Arianne ☺️❤️

[@GemofBooks]

Charlie you make me die - trying to pick an ugly cover, but can’t be mean to the book 😂😂😂

[@CharlieBrookReads]
