This spooky-fun book is packed with 160+ Halloween-themed “Would You Rather?” questions perfect for kids ages 8 to 12. From haunted houses and creepy costumes to candy corn and mummies, it challenges young readers to think creatively, speak persuasively, and laugh along the way. It’s a screen-free way to entertain kids at Halloween parties while waiting for trick-or-treaters, or just hanging out on a chilly October night. Whether you're into bats, black cats, or brain-teasing choices, there’s something in here for every Halloween lover.

I picked this one up as an advance copy thinking it might be a fun Halloween surprise for my granddaughter and after flipping through it, I’m certain it will be. What’s especially clever is how it works well in either print or ebook format, with clear instructions, spooky-themed chapters, and plenty of space to keep score. It’s super easy for kids to understand, includes a winner’s certificate to fill out, and would be a hit at any Halloween party. Honestly, even adults would have a blast with this one. If you're on the fence, don't hesitate. Lindsey Daly nails the Halloween vibe, and there are several other themed editions to check out too...just as fun and festive!

Thank you to NetGalley and Zeitgeist for an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

"Would You Rather? Halloween Edition" continues the fun of the series with a themed game asking "Would You Rather?" in categories such as Frightening Animals, Spooky Spirits, and Menacing Monsters.

Books in this series are really fun because you can use them in a number of ways- by playing the game outlined in the beginning, as a conversation starter, or as a boredom buster that kids can read through independently or with a friend. I could also see this being fun for teachers to use in the classroom as writing or discussion prompts.

My one complaint is the Rotten Food chapter, which is truly gross and asks questions like "Would you rather be served an eyeball pie or a fingernail casserole?" I get that kids like to talk about gross things, but some of the questions were truly stomach-turning for me, though kids may find it fun. I can't even imagine the conversation it might spark. Pass.

Otherwise, it is a fun book full of interesting and thought-provoking questions and scenarios that will surely help kids and adults alike get into the Halloween spirit.
