Thank you once again to N Magazine for featuring some top book picks for the month of October.
"A fictional character once said, "I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers." I would have to agree. It's my favorite month to read. I SAVE books through out the year for the month of October! Something about the cooler weather, hot beverages, warm soups, and blankets make for the perfect setting to curl up with a new book. These "8 for October" jump all over the pumpkin patch with subjects that tackle racial injustice all the way to Nantucket's Scallop Season."
