Gain Access To Halloween Is For Lovers Composed By Nate Gubin File Leaflet

absolutely loved the premise for Halloween is for Lovers, Hugh has been dead for a little while, but he can't let go of his love for Lily, Then there's a posting for a haunting audition: whoever is selected, gets to return to the land of the living for one night, Hugh isn't very scary, but he's desperate to get back to Lily and explain why he left and tell her how much he still loves her.
Well, his audition goes abysmally, but the judges overhear him talking about true love, They decide to send him, in hopes that he'll fail at his mission, coming back even more depressed than before, Death is really messed up realm, if you were wondering,

Halloween is for Lovers was great until Hugh has to face Lily's new fiance, I loved the author's idea of death, It's dark and boring, and just not a place you want to go, I also really liked how everyone just assumed that Hugh had an epic costume, rather than being actually dead and dirty, It was quite funny. But, crazy fiance Dr. Steve just lost me. It wasn't my kind of humor at all, It was very overthetop and bizarre, and took me out of Hugh's journey,

Read more of my reviews at sitelinkPinkindle Reads amp s, This book was a bit Christopher Moore, a bit Tim Burton and a bit of uniqueness all the author's own, I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I started, but found myself amused by the plot which was sillier than I expected,

A few inconsistencies there's a gloomy sort of feel for the first part of this book, before Hugh heads back to the land of the living to find Lily.
Once he is back in the real world, the plot turns very silly and humorous, which threw me a bit, I liked the humor, but felt it could have been tied throughout the book a bit better the change in tone was a bit too drastic.


That being said, I enjoyed the story it was a fun read with a sort of sweetness about it all, This is one crazy Halloween story, If I had to give it a category, I wouldn't know where to put it, It's a love story it's a ghost story some may even say in a way it is a zombie story, Hugh is dead, no question about that and we get to see the place where he has ended up the land of the dead, Hugh is a lovable character who believes in love and the power of love to conquer all, He is one of the few dead to get a chance to haunt the living on Halloween night, Rather than haunting, Hugh wants to see his true love because he died with her thinking he had left her, Her new fiance is a hoot, Hugh's adventures in the land of the living were the funniest parts to me, He keeps going down but getting up again because after all, he is already dead so he can't be killed,
I liked this story, Pretty twisted. Made me giggle and even tear up a couple times, Wow, I loved this crazy book,
It's how I imagine the love child of Neil Gaiman, Stephen King, Tim Burton, Matt Groening and a Harlequin romance novelist with a psychedelic drug addiction would be.

How else can I describe a book that has Hallowe'en, Life, Death, Love, Loss, hatred, happiness, alcoholic vagrants, narcissistic psychotic madmen, jealous bridesmaids, weddings, the horrible vents of hell, cowboy reapers, and pegasi all within its pages
Bravo, Mr.
Gubin, bravo.

p. s. Don't skip the prologue. It's CLASSIC. Cute. Love truly does conquers all, and you should always be nice to people, do unto to others kind of thing, Karma always comes around. While completely silly and deliberately farcical and overthetop at times, I enjoyed the witty humor of this book about true sacrificial love, It was written with tongue firmly in cheek and if you can willingly suspend disbelief and enter this world of hell, zombies, and Halloween, you'll apprecite this cute, whimsical love story.
Halloween is for Lovers
by Nate Gubin

I picked this book based on the title, having never read any other works by the author and having never heard anything about the book other than the Amazon.
com writeup. It was an easy and quick read, Now I just have to decide whether I like it or not!

It certainly was quirky, as the title suggested, It was fitting for the season, as I read it Halloween week, there were only a couple of grammar or proofreading slipsusedtimes, the characters were nicely written, and the book is full of humor and, I think maybe a little political jabbing.
That I liked.

I liked his play on words throughout the one that stood out to me the most being the reference to the foal of a pegasus horse being a pegonie.
I liked the characterization of Steve, the resident megalomaniac, including his persistent use of the word irregardless, despite being told by every character he says it to that it is incorrect.
I always get a kick out of references to pop culture and this book included some, including Star Trek, The Wizard of Oz, Sliders, and the World Wrestling Federation.


The grammar/proofing errors Aton my Kindle, the run together word forseven, Four times in the book characters say "what's a matter" and as four different characters utter it, I couldn't decide if the author was attempting a regional dialect or just didn't know better.


The story itself is fine, It's based on the idea that the veil between the living and dead is thinnest on All Hallows Eve, It has the dead all dead, evidently, no matter what religion, whether they led good or not so good lives, were rich or poor, etc, existing in a sort of limbo everafter one that is devoid of any kind of interest, joy, love or hope, Reapers riding on pegasus horses collect souls, and for the uncooperative or rebellious spirits, there is a neverending, tortuous fall through a vent, Once a year, on Halloween of course, the ruling counsel allows some souls to pass to the land of the living to haunt, The main character, Hugh, wants desperately to cross over to find his former fiance, Lily, to tell her he loves her, Hugh got cold feet on his wedding day, left Lily at the alter, and, realizing that he'd made a mistake, attempted to return, only to die in a car crash on his way back to the church.
He believes that if he can just tell her he loves her and she still loves him, he can become human again and all will be well.


There are some high points, although the storyline is pretty predictable, I think, perhaps, that is on purpose, with the point of the story being the telling of it, not the premise or the outcome,

For me, the best part of the entire book is Hugh and Morton's struggle with Leroy the baddest of the Reapers and his pegasus, Grizly.
When he could have allowed the destruction of the horse, Hugh chose to save her, and, of course, there is payback that, while predictable, is still fun.


I guess this just wasn't my cup of tea, because although I enjoyed the story, I had to make myself pick it up to read.
Once I was reading it, I was fine and found it interesting, but not so interesting that I sought to make a time to sit down and read and not so interesting that I was wondering, while I wasn't reading, what was going to happen.
One way to put it would be that I just didn't have a need to finish the story and only did finish it because I hate to not finish a book.


A nice, fun, quirky story and I'm sure others would rate it higher than I have, This was very funny. I loved the quirky characters, Am I allowed to love my own book Well I do, but it's a complicated love, This was a spooky, but emotional ride, There was a combination between supernatural elements and real human emotions, I felt a strong connection to the main character, which made me care about the story and truly wonder what would happen next, This is a fun book that might just get you thinking about the differences between the dead and the living, It also might scare you about what happens after you die, but that's normal right I would recommend this book to just about anyone but be warned that you need to have somewhat of a stomach to take some of the descriptions of the fate that befalls some of the characters.
I have a relatively strong constitution but the vivid details masterfully written, but intense sometimes made me a little queazy, I think the title is perfect because it lets you know that because it is Halloween there will be a little cookiness and hokiness sp throughout the story but ultimately it is about love.
If you've ever loved and lost a part of you will not be able to put this book down! I'll admit, in the first few pages in, I thought, "What is this" Then I got into the groove.
And it was fantastic.

I want to see Tim Burton make it into a movie, This is a sweet little romance, This book shows that true love conquers all, I love how even though Hugh died on his way back to his wedding that he was able to come back because his love was true.
Undying love the scary kind.

A lovelorn ghost has one Halloween night to find the girl he abandoned at the altar and get her to love him again,


Hugh and Lily,  
Truly, down deep, theyre in love,   So whats the problem  She wont forgive him for abandoning her at the altar so shes moving on and marrying a new guy,   That and Hughs been dead for three years,   But this is true love were talking about,   The Kingdom of the Dead allows ghosts one Halloween night to cross over to the Land of the Living,   Theres a legend that love conquers all, even death,   If Hugh can get Lily to forgive him and love him again, he just might come back to life,   If he fails  There are things far

worse than death awaiting him, Hugh never had a whole lot going for him but now that he's dead he has even less, He got cold feet the day of his wedding, drove the way out of town, came to his senses and turned back, But then in his haste to get back in time, he collided with another vehicle in a fatal crash, After having been deadyears, he discovers that the dead may petition to return for one night and there is the slightest chance that he could get his life and love back.
This had a nice swiftly moving plot, great characters and a good dose of humor, It was a pretty quick read, but the time that I spent reading this delightful book were quite pleasurable hours, I heartily recommend this book, .
