I dunno if this would be it, probably not, but I know the Raggedy Ann books were like that, with the dolls going all Toy Story and going outside at night and such.
Sadly I should have clarified that they were all stuffed animal dolls like a teddy bear, a rabbit etc.

If it was something like a Raggedy Ann I would remember.

EDIT: I see already said they were stuffed animals, but I feel pretty sure I would remember if it involved a Raggedy Ann doll, but it's not impossible I've just forgotten.

well there were a couple of stuffed animals in the mix IIRC. But then there were a number of books like that in the 80s.

Perhaps this list of books with sentient toys might include the one you are looking for.

I remember reading this book called Zach about some Canadian native who travels around Canada for some reason and just randomly meets people. Completely meh, had no real plot or motivation, but I can't find the author or this book's existence at all. It's been almost nine years and I'm beginning to think it was just some sort of fabricated hallucination I had.

This would be Zach by John Craig:

I remember reading some sort of Fantasy/Sci-Fi book in Grade school. I don't remember much about it, but I do remember there was a character named Brekke, and she was part of a love triangle between her, another girl, and a guy. I remember the other girl complaining about the guy liking Brekke, basically saying something like "What does he see in her? She has no tits!"

There was also a vague rape/Dub-Con scene in there somewhere.

I had a children's book once as a kid probably from the 1980s or the early 1990s about a group of stuffed toys who come to life at night and make their way into a nearby playground at night or something like that.

Does anyone know the name?
Maybe Oddkins by Dean Koontz. Its a kids book about living toys that was published around that time.

Don't remember anything personally, but a character search for Brekke brings up the Dragonriders of Pern series by Anne McCaffrey

I have one for you all! It’s a book I have been trying to find for ages and no amount of Googling or searching the local library has helped.
I originally read it in the late ‘90s or very early ‘00s. The cover had at least one teenage boy on it and he was looking into an open door that showed a whale-creature flying through space on the other side.
The story was about a boy who finds a portal in a shed and there is something slowly approaching on the other side of the portal. Throughout the story the thing gets closer and closer and the boy and his brother/friend have to find a way to close the portal before the thing on the other side reaches it.

And another book on Paganism for teenagers, published in the early 1990's.
Maybe drawing down the moon
The cover had teenagers in 1990's clothing walking down the sidewalf, front views
Since someone else mentioned Silver Ravenwolf, could it have just been Teen Witch? A friend of mine had a copy of this back in like, middle school, and apparently somehow it ended up in MY stash of books and I found it the other day and laughed my ass off at how aggressively 90s/early 2000s it looked.

This is an incredibly long shot, but I've been looking for this book for years so it's worth a shot.

Wayy back in the late 2000s I read a sci-fi book called "Home". I don't remember the author unfortunately. The prologue opens with this 12 - 14 year old boy, possibly called something like Hector, shooting a swan out of the sky with a slingshot. He skins it and takes it back to his complex? (The people all lived in these complex like structures because the government claimed the outside world was dangerous, which it isn't) It then cuts to his sister, who's just gotten out of classes and he tries to encourage her to come outside with him. She believes all the government mandated stuff, so is horrified and refuses. Their complex is burned down to the ground not too long after by rebels, and these two have to learn to survive in the outside world. My copy had a crescent moon instead of an o in the title.

The closest I've been able to find is "This Time of Darkness" by H.M Hoover. It's not that but very similar.

30 years ago, I read this book about a Catholic Inquistor and his hunchback assistant. I don't think the Inquistor was Torqumada.. but I do recall the hunchbacks name might have been "Iggy"? Anyone ever read this?

Where one had this really creepy one about a kid who finds a skull takes it home puts it in his closest and every night the skull seems to smile and the smile grows wider and evil looking with each night until finally the rest of the skeleton it belongs to shows up and it starts talking demanding the kid "give me back my bones! "and when he finally puts the skull back on the skeleton it turns around one last time as it leaves as if to say "and don't ever do that again. " anyone remember a story in an anthology book like that?

Was it Scary Stories to tell in the Dark? There was also a similar book of horror stories called Kentucky Fried Rat. This story sounds really familiar.

No it wasn't the scary stories series books I know it was a scholastic series. I've never heard of Kentucky fried rat.


Litteraly the story of the stolen skull is all I remember from that collection. It was a book I read while I was with the boys and girls club of America a decade and change ago
