"I'm putting it under bones, for innuendo-ish reasons" 😂😂😂 I'm dying

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

I couldn’t not do it 😂

[@alanamarie4363]

The makeup in this is everything 😍

[@alanamarie4363]

“Putting it under bones” got me 😂

[@readbymalja]

The start of this video was a complete vibe! 🍂🍁 I hope you enjoy reading these books! ☺️💕

[@TheBookLeo]

the vibes are ASTRONOMICAL

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Why thank you 🥰🍂

[@violetanedkova5254]

Bunny is spectacularly twisted and freaky and weird. Didn't guess that twist at the end.

[@JasmineReads]

I've been thinking about my Halloween reads recently as well, so I enjoyed this immensely✨ These Violent Delights is sooo gorgeous, I hope it lives up!!

[@southernbelle875]

"i'm putting it under bones, for reasons." literal laughing out loud.

[@lizdorrington2851]

Hi there, I've just discovered your channel and I lived it! Disfigured really intrigues me and just sounds so interesting. I can't wait for Once In Future Witches also.

[@BasicallyBrittx]

I'm so excited that you're going to read The Fellowship of the Ring!!! Hope you're going to love it! The writing style is definitely one to get used to, but I got used to it so soon and read it in a few days!

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

I really hope I love it 🙈

[@katrinaandallthebooks7993]

I’ll read spooky books and thrillers in the last week of October, Bunny sounds great.

[@christinacampbellbooks]

I definitely want to read Bunny. It sounds wonderful! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it.

[@SarahAsYouWish]

Be prepared for a wild ride with Bunny. Love your makeup.

[@teanlit2949]

The makeup look is gorgeous! I'm so glad you shared some great gothic books, it's the perfect time of year.

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Stay tuned for two book recommendation videos coming for more like it 👀

[@FaeryLaume]

I just finished The Year of the Witching. It wasn't what I was expecting (but then again I didn't even read the description, I just grabbed it because of the title), and I really liked it!

[@tiboraranyossi9263]

I have heard good things about Bunny and Lord of the Rings sits on my bookshelf for ages-need to get to it...LOVED movies 😍

[@autumnritchie1473]

Omygosh! I love your makeup! 😍😍😍I was going to do Gothtober, but decided to sit out this month. I was so tempted to do it after I saw you & Gavin were doing it...but I’m just gonna read spooky books & try to clear out the books that I need to read & finish! I’m going to try to get to Bunny this month too! I have it out from the library! :) You made me want to read These Violent Delights, so I hope to get to that one soon as well! There’s just so many books! I hope you have a great month of reading & I can’t wait to see your thoughts on these books! I love you! 🥰🥰🥰 Oh Happy Day! 😊✨✨ Oh Happy Reading! 🤓📚✨

[@samrjacobson13]

I just finished rereading the Fellowship of the Ring and I feel like it has great fall vibes. Especially in Lothlorien!

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Ahhh I’m so excited to experience it!

[@ellam1283]

Omg you’re going to LOVE Bunny it’s so amazing!!!

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

I’m so excited!

[@anniejolynn862]

These. All. Sound. Amazing!

[@ReadingNymph]

I'm taking part in slayerfest!! Super excited! Hope you enjoy your tbr

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Oooh that sounds fab!

[@FennelFiber]

I’ve actually never made myself a TBR list but.. I think after making a spreadsheet and seeing all the books I want to work through a TBR might be necessary! Happy reading! 🍁

[@TheBookSanctum]

I'm going gothtober too - good luck with the TBR! Disfigured sounds really interesting too, I'll have to check it out!

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Yaaaas I hope it goes well for you!

[@TheBookSanctum]

@@AFrolicThroughFiction Thank you - you too!

[@42lucyinthesky]

I've got Once and Future Witches and Year of the Witching on my Gothtober TBR too.

[@cleg78]

Hey lovely, so glad that Bunny pipped it as I knew how much you wanted to read it xx

[@cleg78]

I think Bunny is like a twisted version of The Craft a film from years back x

[@cleg78]

Lmfao Zeus is a dick and under the prompt Bones....lmfao Oh my days if people don’t get that I will crease 😂

[@cleg78]

Oooo I’m reading The year of witching 🤗🤗 cracking 😁

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Ahaha thank you for voting for it despite your big crisis about the decision 😂

[@cleg78]

A Frolic Through Fiction I knew how much you had wanted to read it as you have mentioned it on a number of occasions so I couldn’t not vote for it. I’ve heard it’s a twisted version of The Craft in a few ways so it does sound intriguing so I really do hope you enjoy it 😊

[@rebeccamedusasrockgarden4781]

Fellowship might fit undead character as it has the ringwraiths and the barrow wights. I think wraiths and wights are undead-ish. it might also fit lies a little bit because there is a lot of secret keeping going on.

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Ooh thank you for letting me know!!

[@JorgeHorstedPhotography]

I really want to read Bunny😫 you look GORGEOUS!!

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Doesn’t it sound fab?? And thank you 🥰

[@LadetteM]

Love this. The eyemake up looks killer (I know I already told you, but I'm telling you again) and I can't wait to get my hands on a copy of These Violent Delights!

[@HeartofPages]

The bone prompt 😂😂😂 loved it 👌

[@Thebeccafowell]

I have Once and Future Witches on my October tbr too, it sounds so good

[@JulEnglefaris]

I got Fellowship on audiobook DVD to listen to in my car and it's like 17 discs lmao

[@laurakoehler1099]

I am reading a ton of books in Oct. If we Were Villians, Practical Magic, the whisper man, witchy, a deadly education to name a few.

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

These all sound so fab!!

[@TheBookishMom]

I am really wanting to read Once and Future Witches. I can't wait to see what you end up thinking about it.

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

It sounds so good right??

[@TheBookishMom]

@@AFrolicThroughFiction it really does

[@julies_reading]

bunny is my favorite book of the year and i just so happen to also be reading disfigured this month!! cant wait to hear your thoughts on all of these :)

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Ahh I love that! When our reading tastes collide ahaha 🙌🏻

[@fozzymup268]

I try and read a spooky Susan Hill book in the Autumn. 💕🍁📚🍂👻

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Oooh perfect!!

[@books_and_ki]

I have bunny on my kindle, maybe I'll read this one as well!

[@pamelatarajcak5634]

Fellowship could be undead because of Ringwraiths. I have a lot of spooky reads planned.

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Ooh thank you!! I hope your spooky reading is fab 🙌🏻

[@mariana.c89]

I just finished the hobbit yesterday and I'm really looking forward to reading the fellowship of the ring

[@MidwestMaria]

I finished today! Now just patiently waiting for the DVDs from the library 😄

[@mariana.c89]

@@MidwestMaria I rewatched all the LotR last month, but I don't know if I want to watch the hobbit movies hahahahaha

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Aw that’s so good to hear! 🙌🏻

[@pallerberger]

I'm super interested in Disfigured. It's a much-needed discussion! I'm a disabled person and believe that literature shouldn't contribute to the negative way that society sees our bodies.

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Sadly the negative rep has been there for so so long. I hope this book does a good job of confronting that

[@pallerberger]

@@AFrolicThroughFiction I truly hope so. Thanks for bringing this book to your channel ❤

[@geh1910]

Some brill recommendations :). You're makeup also looks amazing, wondered what eyeshadow you used? x

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Thank you 🥰 MUA! I’m not sure if the palette name I’m afraid as I use it so often the info has rubbed off

[@TrishaBarua2913]

Ashleigh your humour 😂😂😂 I like !!!

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

😂💚

[@marielbellan]

I never read scary books or of the sort but this month I will try to incorporate a bit more of the “scary” them to my TBR lol

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

Good luck with the TBR!

[@lauraevans6285]

I wanna read some things for Halloween but am wimp.. 😅 I made the mistake of reading coraline last month, so this month im reading the deathless girls for the most Halloween like book, then a non friction called dark skies about the wilderness in the dark ❤

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Ooh they sound fab! I have The Deathless Girls but haven’t read it yet. I hope you enjoy!

[@cori4727]

Love the look in this video!

[@abipalmer1029]

Loving this! We will make a goth out of you soon Ashleigh;)

[@MaryAmongStories]

absolutely adore the makeup 💜

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Thank you!!

[@books_and_ki]

That makeup 😍

[@spoopywife]

Where did you get the print with the woman holding the pomegranate? I need it in my life!

[@readingthroughinfinity5377]

When you said 'what prompt is it going under for Gothtober? I'm putting it under bones' I SCREAMED 😂😂😂 Good luck on your TBR for this month, looks like you've got some exciting books lined up!

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

It had to be done 😂 thank you Kate!!

[@franzi4854]

Your make up is stunning 😍 and now my wishlist is longer ... again

[@skylerpennock6439]

this video is everything I was hoping it to be 🖤

[@michellegonzalez4879]

So funny your bones joke 🙊🙊

[@Booksinthedark]

I started reading Tolkien a couple months ago with the Hobbit and then read fellowship of the ring. Then found out about the tolkalong 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 and now I’m currently reading the two towers. It’s a lot more enjoyable than the first of the trilogy. I’m pretending to follow along even though I’m a book ahead lol

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Ahaha you’re ahead of the game! Just means you’re extra prepared 🙌🏻

[@vivianwakoff]

"Zeus is a dick" sums up about 75% of Greek mythology!

[@celina6259]

Yes girl 😍 I loved it !!!

[@alexandriaperone8030]

Ask the internet 🤣🤣🤣

[@bewitchedbecs]

That makeup is gorgeous 😍

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Thank you so much!!

[@Eliot832]

Seriously Ashleigh, make an ASMR video! You already have the gift for the cozy vibes--it just makes sense!

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

I have tested it before but have never quite figured out what I’d do as in awful at reading aloud! Maybe I’ll try again sometime aha

[@Eliot832]

@@AFrolicThroughFiction Are you familiar with Sarah Lavender ASMR? She has a recent vid just talking about her favorite fantasy novels. I'd love to see something like that from you, or favorite retellings. Anyway, just putting that out there :)

[@OliviasCatastrophe]

I love deckled edges! Wow, uni starts for you at the end of October DD: That's still a while to go. Disfigured actually sounds so interesting - I was just talking to my sister about this topic the other day. I might have to read that one too. And I LOVE the sound of Zeus is a Dick! What an apt title ahaha. Shall see what you make of that one. I have read the fellowship of the ring as well and I will be curious to see how you go :3 The audiobook helped me a lot with that one. Happy reading x

[@crimsonkiss13]

Are you not reading the next book in the Liveship Traders?

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

In November! The books cover every two months for Elderlingalong ☺️

[@crimsonkiss13]

@@AFrolicThroughFiction Oh that's right! Sorry I forgot 😬

I'm participating in Gothtober, Supernaturalathon, Colourathon, Pageathon and Sherlockathon. Yeap, serious case of FOMO 😂😂😂

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Just a few readathons 😂

[@Laura0I]

Not exactly spooky, but I’m trying to go for a (dark) academia theme. I have deadly education, the secret history, ninth house, the magicians and the name of the wind. I’m writing my PhD dissertation so I am in the mood for a school setting, but make it creepy XD

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Oof all of those sound like a fab TBR! The only one I haven’t read from the bunch is Magicians, but I do own it. Hope you enjoy!

[@ravenous_reads]

Since I wasnt on IG for the longest time - did I miss your live show for The Hobbit? Or will it be in October?

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

It will be in October!

[@graceoc5613]

Your makeup is so pretty! I’m hoping to finish The Fellowship of the Ring for #tolkienalong. Also plan on reading some spooky books: Misery by Stephen King, Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier and I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith. Also hoping to start one of your faves Priory of the Orange Tree this month. I’m probably bding too ambitious but here’s hoping! ✨

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Thank you! Oof you have such a good month of reading ahead! 🙌🏻

[@JackalopeHope]

Zeus is a Dick might have the best cover I've seen lately. It's too good

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Right?? 😂

[@Tarasreadingnook]

😍

[@sakurahan91]

I’m not bothered by Halloween reading. I normally read one creepyish book over Halloween, IT for example, but as I don’t find books scary, it never works for me anyway lol.

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

I don’t think they’d work all that well for me either, but I’d be intrigued to test that!

[@fictionalmusings4676]

Immediately requesting Zeus is a Dick because obvious reasons thanks for putting it on my radar!!

[@AFrolicThroughFiction]

Oooh let me know if you’re accepted for it!
