Hi everyone
Hard to believe it’s officially October now. Although "hard to believe" isn’t the correct phrase because life has been a whirlwind with homework, school, the girls’ hobbies, family, and my new job. School started a month ago, and I can already see how much my girls have grown. But autumn still makes me want to curl up under a blanket with a cup of tea, maybe a piece of chocolate, and a good book so while we still have some sun in Belgium; I'm enjoying the autumn vibes.
My eldest daughter started in het vierde leerjaar (fourth grade), and her new teacher is a big fan of Roald Dahl. Naturally, my daughter got excited and wanted to read more of his books, and then, of course, I wanted to (re)read them too! We’ve been enjoying searching for specific books in the library together. It’s been such a lovely way to bond over stories and books.
Here's what I read in September.
- A.J. Hackwith: The Library of the Unwritten
- James Islington: The Will of the Many
As for books I didn’t like, I DNF’d three (!) books this time.
- Marisa Crane: I Keep My Exoskeletons to Myself
- Mel Robbins: The Let Them Theory
- Christopher Ruocchio: Empire of Silence
What are you reading this autumn? Have you picked up any cozy or thrilling books to match the season? I’d love to hear your recommendations!
Happy reading!
Helena
