Contest Update, a Cool Halloween Pic, and HQTP3—Candy

I've decided to add one more book to the Super Stupendous Halloween Spooktacular book giveaway. Woohoo! So, in addition to The Shifter, The Hollow, and Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, (and awesome office supplies) the lucky winner will receive...

The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan



I loved this book. You can read my semi-review here. If you haven't entered, there's still time. Contest ends Oct. 31st at midnight PST.

And in good Halloweeny contest spirit, Tere Kirkland has submitted a photo of herself and all her minions and earned herself TEN additional entries. She's the cute blue FEMA fairy with the fabulous red wig. Thanks, Tere!



Now for HQTP3(Part 1 and Part 2)—There are certain candies you can only find at Halloween time. I love mallow pumpkins (correction: these are actually called mellowcreme pumpkins) and candy corn. My husband is always on the lookout for Mary Janes, and he'll buy however many bags they have if he finds them. We have to get stocked up for the year. ;)

So, what's your favorite Halloween candy?

  1. I'm a total Kit Kat girl. I can seriously eat 10 of the snack sized ones in a single sitting. It's sick and wrong.

  6. I'm with you on the candy corn! I also love the fun-sized Snickers bars and kit kat bars. That book has a very strange and interesting title.

    I've passed an award on to you at my blog, check it out when you can :)

  9. Tere, you are too cute for words!! :) Love the wig!

    Ooh, great question, Abby. I'm a reeses, peanut M&M, and sixlets lover! My husband is all about the frozen snickers bars, too, which are a close second.

  10. Dubble bubble. Of course, I buy the 3-pounder at Costco on a regular basis, so I'm not sure that counts as "Halloween" candy. Does it?

    And, yes! I LOVED TFOHAT!!
