September was a great reading month, thanks in part to nice weather that made reading on the screen porch a possibility.
A Handful of Dust was the sequel to the August book for Dogwood Belles Bookclub and Biblical was the September book. Biblical seems misnamed; it is a very smart book similar to On Fire But Not Burning.
A Tree Grow in Brooklyn was for the September Read-A-Long at GoodReads hosted by Katie of Life BetweenWords (link to her review on BookTube is HERE).
Fan Girl is the book I wish I had read before starting college.
The Night Guest was a DNF for me. I had to read ahead to see if the main character's cats would be ok (yes) and spoiled the ending a bit (it wasn't that surprising). I just wasn't invested enough to keep going and the plot was slow moving. It just wasn't the book for me.
Where They Found Her was a good solid mystery. At first it seemed like there were way too many characters with points of view but it all came together well. Trigger warning - the story does revolve around the death of an infant.
A Gathering of Shadows and A Court of Mist and Fury are both sequels to books I read earlier this year. Court is my favorite book of the year so far (even over Six of Crows). I haven't had a book crush in awhile and this one does it!
Don't forget about All Hallows Read - give a book for Halloween
