I was thinking today that I’d like to pick out a new book to read that seems “appropriate” for October. I can’t decide what should count as appropriate: one that makes me think of fall or Halloween or adventure or night. So, here’s my list.


Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley

The Phantom of Pemberley, by Regina Jeffers

The Hunt for Red October, by Tom Clancy

Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte

Five Children and It, by E. Nesbit


I think these are the ones that I’ll consider for October. Of course, I have to finish Sherlock Holmes first, so I may go for one that will be an easy or quick read instead. Do you have any suggestions?

Anyway, Happy October and Happy Fall!
