With fall fully in swing, and the temperatures dropping, now is a perfect time to cuddle up in your twin xl bed with a good book and some Dana hot chocolate. But there are so many books to choose from, how does one pick? Well, look no further. Here are the top three books to read during the fall.
If you want something mind twisting and thrilling, but not too scary, then The Silent Patient is definitely the book for you. “The Silent Patient” by Alex Michaelide follows the story of a famous artist who suddenly breaks and kills her husband. When she is found, she refuses to talk and has refused to talk for years. Theo Faber, a criminal psychotherapist is determined to get her to tell the whole story. The book follows the two, their meetings together, their own lives, and the twisting path to find the truth in what happened that night. If you want to read a book in one sitting, this is the one. The anticipation and changing perspectives will keep you hooked till the very end.
Not looking for something scary? Want an early start to the Hallmark Christmas movie channel? Well, luckily, the latest BookTok craze has been around a book called “The Pumpkin Spice Café” by Laurie Gilmore that seems to be the perfect cross between a Hallmark romance and a Gilmore Girls vibe. The story follows a woman named Jeanie who leaves her desk job when her aunt gifts her the Pumpkin Spice Café in Dream Harbor. Then she meets Logan, the grumpy local farmer who wants nothing to do with a newcomer. But everyone must cross paths when living in a small town. While I haven’t personally read it, it sounds like a fun and easy read for a well-deserved break from all that studying on a fall weekend.
If you are more into the classics, but don’t want to read “Frankenstein” again, “Jane Eyre” by Charlotte Brontë is a perfect fall read. This moody, Victorian-era story is a great fall read. The book follows the story of an orphaned girl growing up in a cruel relative’s home. It follows the loneliness of her childhood all the way to her success as a governess in the home of Mr. Rochester. A beautiful romance blooms between the two, but it is not without its fair share of drama and hidden secrets that turn monstrous. While it sounds like a high school reading assignment, trust me when I say this book is a work of art.
There are plenty of other good reads out there for the fall, especially any of the classic Stephen King novels or the entire Harry Potter series, but these three books cover the romance, the thriller, and the classical aspects that one might want. Happy reading!
