While I don't know that I got A Night in Lonesome October, I still really liked it. Reading a chapter a day throughout the month of October was a great way to build spooky Halloween-ness. Although the plot mystifies me a little, the characters, particularly the central animals who we spend our time with, are fantastic. I'm not sure I'll read this book again next year, but I imagine if I do, I'll love it all the more. There's something very enjoyable about how this mystery unravels and the places it stays obscured.
