What to Add to Your Fall Reading List

It’s here! My fall reading list. I absolutely loved pulling together my summer reading list and polled our community about creating seasonal reading lists – you responded with a resounding YES!

This list has it all (for fall). Baking, football, college campuses, libraries and a whole lot of suspenseful thrills. You’ll find new releases and old favorites, along with a range of genres that include contemporary fiction, historical fiction, romance, non-fiction, thrillers, YA, classics and more!

While I’ve read and loved most of these books, there are a few on my own fall reading list and I’ve noted when that’s the case. These books come highly recommended and all have great Goodreads ratings. Follow along with me this fall as I read these titles.

Here my complete fall reading list — I appreciate you shopping my affiliate links:
