Reading list: Halloween Book Bingo - Pumpkins! Square

Created by: Murder by Death

Primarily books with pumpkins on the covers, or pumpkins in the title. A few where pumpkins are actually characters in the plot.

Most, if not all, of these will also work for the Halloween Square.

Hehe. Love that you included the Peanuts book! :)
FWIW, there's also "Trick or Treat: A Peanuts Halloween" (ISBN 13: 9780345464132; ISBN 10: 0345464133) -- and both Peanuts books would also work as comic relief for "Set on Halloween."

As for horror books, I haven't read either of the below, but judging by the covers / descriptions, they would fit:
R.L. Stine: "Halloween Night" (ISBN 10: 0590460986; ISBN 13: 9780590460989) and "Attack of the Jack O'Lanterns" (ISBN 10: 059056885X; ISBN 13: 9780590568852) -- both likewise for "Set on Halloween," of course.
Murder by Death
It's just not Halloween without the Great Pumpkin! ;-)

I added the books, and I also edited the description of the list to say that most of these, if not all of them, would also qualify for Halloween. Seemed more expedient. :)
SusannaG - Confessions of a Crazy Cat Lady
Qualifies by plot:

The Danger, by Dick Francis.
Murder by Death
Added. :)
