I love reading seasonally or at least I get in certain reading moods as the seasons ease into the next. ππππΎπππΏοΈπ»β₯οΈ πHere are five reads that I recommend that feel September-ishβ¦
1. From the Heart of the Home: Autumn by Susan Branch {this is a delightful collection of joyful reflections, illustrations, quotes, and recipes to get you into the fall mood}β₯οΈπ»
2. Pat of the Silverbush by L.M. Montgomery {Iβm reading this currently for the first time and itβs lovely and cozy for this time of year}
3. Christy by Catherine Marshall {beautiful story full of hope, growth, faith, and wonderful female friendships}
4. The Peace of Wild Things by Wendell Berry {honestly, I pull this short poetry collection out all times of year, but have been craving it lately}
5. The Grasmere Journals by Dorothy Wordsworth {beautifully simple journal entries from the sister of the poet William Wordsworth. The domesticity and pace of life is just so relaxing to me and the English Lake District setting is perfect}
P.S. William Shakespeare is another I feel drawn towards. Whatβs your favorite play of his?
Do you have any favorite reads that smell and feel of September? β₯οΈ Please share!
I have a few Americana/homespun type books that are about the entire year in rural America of the 1700s-1800’s, but they seem so cozy for this time of year. One I just finished was An Old New England Village by Charles D. Hubbard.
