It’s finally October! I love this month so much. Pumpkin everything, the leaves changing color, spooky stuff everywhere, cooler weather… there’s just so much to love. The fall is a time when I always feel rejuvenated and at my happiest.
Since it’s the first day of the month, that means it’s time to put together my TBR list for the month. I doubt I’m going to be able to get through everything on the list, but I am certainly going to try! I also have a habit of picking up books on a whim, so expect this list to change a little.
Currently Reading:
- Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi
- Tales from the Warming by Lorin R. Robinson
- Brown Girl Dreaming by Jacqueline Woodson
Want to Read:
- The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman (reread)
- The Lady’s Guide to Petticoats and Piracy by Mackenzi Lee
- House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski (I’ve tried to read this book before, but it’s so massive! I’m going to try again this month, but I can’t give any promises!)
- Misery by Stephen King
- Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
- An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir
- A Winkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle
- The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
- The Witches by Roald Dahl
- The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker
- Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin
- The Road by Cormac McCarthy (reread)
And then also, a healthy dose of Edgar Allen Poe and H.P. Lovecraft.
What are you planning on reading this month?

Read Yourself Happy 
Great TBR! I still have to read The Road! I read a non-fiction book that I really enjoyed in September. It was called “We Can Do It: A Community Takes on the Challenge of School Desegregation” and it was written by Michael Gengler. It is all about the desegregation of schools in Gainesville, Florida that happened in the 50’s and 60’s after it was deemed unconstitutional in 1954. Even after that it took so much to make it happen and the community had to face a lot of opposition, but it is very inspiring hearing how the community came together to make this happen. Reading the accounts of former students was a great perspective on the situation.
