Opinions of a Wolf

I am pleased to announce that I will be hosting a brand-new reading challenge – A Very Sapphic Halloween Reading Challenge!

Goal of the Challenge

Celebrate women loving women in books that also make you feel like you’re celebrating Halloween.

When Does it Run?

Now through the end of October!

What Books Count?

Any book that feels Halloweeny to you that also has at least one character (main or secondary) who is a woman who expresses a sexual or romantic interest in women.

What makes a book Halloweeny? It could be a thriller, mystery, or horror. It could have paranormal elements. But it also could be a cozy romance set during the fall season. If it makes you feel in the mood for Halloween, then it counts.

If you don’t have time to read and review something new but still want to participate, you can also post suggested reading lists to participate in the challenge. Hype up your favorite sapphic Halloween reads!

How Do I Participate?

You have three options:

1. Blog/Website – write a sign-up post on your blog or website linking back to my post here. That way I can find you and follow along. It can be fun to write up a tbr or a list of books you own that could count to pull from for the challenge. Feel free to grab the image from this post for your own!
2. Instagram – Post your intent to participate in the challenge. Tag me (@opinionsofawolf) and use the hashtag #sapphichalloweenreading. You can feel free to use the image on this page in your posts, or you can grab it from my Instagram.
3. Twitter – Tweet your intent to participate. Provide a link to this page and tag me (@McNeilAuthor) so I can find you and follow along.

If you write individual reviews or lists, it’s helpful to link back to this page, tag me, or use the hashtag #sapphichalloweenreading both to help spread the word and to help us find each other and cheer each other on.

I’ll be posting my first list of reading suggestions next week, if you’re looking for possible reads. Keep an eye out for that!

My Sign-Up TBR

These are the books from my TBR that I think I will likely be reading for this challenge:

• A Dowry of Blood by S.T. Gibson – vampires
• The Gilda Stories by Jewelle L. Gómez – horror, vampires

I hope you’ll be joining me on this fun fall celebration!
