My Top 5 Fall Reads

The crisp chill of fall is begging readers to sit down with a good book. No matter the physical or digital copy, the books listed below have been marked as incredible reads after many cozy nights enjoying their tales. 

Starting with a classic book from the 1800s, Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley is a must-read for those looking for a twist on the ideas of humanity. 

To unwrite some interpretations of this book, Frankenstein is actually a man who creates an otherworldly and hideous creation with his own hands. This creation is born of hatred, as Dr. Frankenstein relates him to one of hell’s creations and casts him off. 

Can you really blame a human-like creature for murder if he was shown no humanity? 

The next five top-rated favorite books this fall are part of The Embrace Series collection by author Jessica Shirvington. 

With a strong woman, two love interests, and a soulmate connection at play, the adventurous tale of Violet Edens will take you through heartbreak before the healing process can begin. 

My only advice is that you bring tissues with you for this series. 

Not into romance and don’t have time? Let’s take a look at the short story, The Lottery, by writer Shirley Jackson. The story is rich in context, and often, basks in its controversial ending that remains a relevant ending for over fifty years. 

Often things we find to be normal, need to be challenged, the problem is knowing when to challenge what we believe to be normal.
