Happy Thursday, book lovers! I can’t believe that September is already almost over. Where did this entire month go?! Since next week is already the last Friday of the month so it’s time to get out the ✨October 2025 LTB Topics!✨
What’s Let’s Talk Bookish?
Let’s Talk Bookish is a weekly (Friday) meme originally created by Rukky @ Eternity Books and co-hosted by Aria @ Book Nook Bits and me (Dini @dinipandareads)! In this bookish discussion meme, bloggers get to discuss certain topics, share opinions, and spread love by visiting each other’s posts.
You can find an archive of topics HERE!
Thanks to Melanie and Snapdragon for contributing to two of October’s topics! The others are suggested by Aria and me. If you have a topic you’d like to share (even if you don’t join LTB), you can fill in the Google form at the end of this post!

October 3: Authors Branching Out (Melanie @ Melanie’s Book Blog)
Prompts: How do you feel when an author you love does something new and not at all like their previous work? Do you still read all their books, or do you stop after a point? If they write in a new genre that you don’t read, do you read it for the author, or stop following every title the author releases (in the new genre)? What are some of your favourite books where the author veered away from their previous work quite drastically?
October 10: TBR Roulette
Prompts: What makes you keep a book on your TBR? Find a random number generator, put in the number of books on your TBR and roll 5 times! Note down the book each number corresponds to on your list (or just pick 5 books at random off your TBR) and tell us: what made you add the book to your shelf—was it a cover add? Does it have your favourite tropes? How long has it been on your TBR? If it has been on your TBR for a long time, do you still want to read it or have you lost interest?
October 17: Oh, the Horror (Snapdragon @ Snapdragon Alcove)
Prompts: Do you read horror? What do you think of when you hear the word horror? Are there any books you read that are not practically horror but have some horror element in them?
October 24: Recapping Anticipated Reads
Prompts: With two months left in the year following October, let’s recap your anticipated releases so far. How have you fared with your most anticipated releases in 2025—have they mostly met with your expectations or have you been let down? Were you surprised by 2025 releases you weren’t anticipating but ended up being more enjoyable than expected? Are there any 2025 releases you’re still waiting on? If you like, share your top 2025 releases so far!
October 31: Halloween Freebie! 👻
Prompts: Happy Halloween, folks! 🎃 To celebrate the spooky fest, we’re making today a Halloween freebie! You can check out our blogs for inspiration (Aria and Dini) or write about something else you’re interested in!

Oh no need to apologize to me, I wasn’t even aware of when they usually come out and I can’t seem to stick to a publishing schedule myself so no worries 😜 Either way looking forward to participating when I can 😀
