October 2nd started my All Things Halloween event--a month of paranormal, supernatural, mystery/thriller, etc reviews and books. With Ever's arrival on October 20th reading and blogging took a back seat this month. Thankfully I had posts scheduled ahead for the entire month, but I'm really behind on responding to comments. I know you guys understand. And before I forget HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

2015 Series Enders Reading Challenge – October Wrap Up
Goals:
I'm 21 days ahead on my daily Bible reading.
I've read 89 out of 104 books. (4 ahead of schedule)
I've read 13 out of 10-12 series enders.
A Word About November:
I'm trying to settle into motherhood. Knowing that Ever would be arriving in October, I scheduled myself a blogging break for the entire month of November. I do have a few reviews scheduled for the month, but I don't plan to be active with responding to comments or visiting other blogs like I normally do. I hope that this time off will allow me to settle into a routine as a mother, but I also hope to get some mega reading done. So far in the week and a half that she's been here, I've only read one day so that's not the best sign for reading. But obviously, she's my priority now. Don't worry, I have December almost completely scheduled already too so I'll definitely return to posting regularly then. I hope you all have a great November and Happy Thanksgiving (for the US) if I don't see you before then.
