Autumn TBR & Watchlist

It is finally here!!The time when leaves start to change color, the wind blows in strangers and adventures, and Pumpkin Spice abounds on every shelf. It's my favorite season of all: Autumn.

Technically, "Fall" doesn't start until September 22nd, but my brain divides the four seasons into 3 months each (to be fair) and once the 1st of September hits, I'm more than ready to embrace the new season.

I blame it on the special magic in the air but somehow, I feel more like myself in the fall. Autumn is my favorite season to read in and I've been saving so many books for this moment.

As a mood reader, each month feels a bit different than the others so I've divided up my TBR by the books I hope to read each month. September eases into fall with some light fantasy as the leaves turn, October brings in the season's darker tone with some spooky stories, and November finishes it off with rich and magical tomes perfect for hunkering down before the snow flies. I am looking forward to reading each and every one of these books.

The Lake House
