October TBR List

In this blog post, I want to share with you my October TBR list. As the weather gets colder and Halloween approaches, I'm in the mood for spooky and atmospheric reads. These books are perfect for curling up with a cozy sweater and a warm cup of tea.

1. 'The Silent Patient' by Alex Michaelides: This psychological thriller has been highly recommended and I can't wait to dive into it. It follows the story of Alicia, a famous painter who hasn't spoken a word since she was accused of murdering her husband. I'm intrigued to uncover the truth behind her silence.

2. 'Mexican Gothic' by Silvia Moreno-Garcia: Set in 1950s Mexico, this gothic horror novel promises to deliver chilling suspense. When Noemí receives a desperate letter from her newlywed cousin, she travels to a remote mansion where dark secrets lurk. I'm excited to be transported to a haunting and atmospheric setting.

3. 'The Turn of the Key' by Ruth Ware: Known for her gripping mysteries, Ruth Ware's latest book is a modern-day thriller set in a remote Scottish house. As a nanny, Rowan finds herself accused of a murder in this twisty and suspenseful tale.

4. 'The Haunting of Hill House' by Shirley Jackson: As a lover of classic ghost stories, I can't let October pass without reading this iconic novel. The eerie atmosphere and psychological torment make it a perfect choice for the spooky season.

5. 'The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue' by V.E. Schwab: This highly anticipated fantasy novel tells the story of Addie LaRue, a young woman who makes a deal to live forever, but is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets. I'm intrigued by the premise and excited to discover the consequences of Addie's immortal life.

I hope you find these book recommendations as exciting as I do. Let's get into the Halloween spirit with these spooky and atmospheric reads!
