It's been 10 years since Wirt & Greg went "Over the Garden Wall"! Horatio and Jojo are celebrating with an homage to the meow-gical miniseries as we look forward to the new short! Photo: Horatio the Cat dressed in a dark blue cape with gold buttons and a red conical hat to emulate Wirt from "Over the Garden Wall" and Jojo the Pirate Cat dressed in a white shirt, black tie, and green overalls with a brown wig and upside down teapot on her head to emulate Gregory from the same series. She sits next to a frog plush and the "Over the Garden Wall" DVD sits between the cats. They both sit in front of a tree with red, orange, and yellow leaves, and a small plush of the character Beatrice the bluebird in the tree. #Caturday #CatsOfInstagram #Cats #OverTheGardenWall @someb_ooks #FallVibes #SpookySeason #Wirt #Greg #WirtAndGreg #PotatoesAndMolasses #Beatrice #BeatriceTheBluebird #Miniseries #HoratioTheCat #JojoThePirateCat

When we saw this new adult graphic novel, #FinalCut, by Charles Burns, we couldn't resist the opportunity of a #BookFace post. The book tells a story of a horror movie shoot gone wrong, with references to classic scifi and horror movies. It's apparently also full of stunning depictions of nature. The book will be available soon for check out! Request it now to be first in line to borrow.

#HappyHalloween from the library! Are you reading any #SpookyBooks? Let us know which ones in the comments.
