Fall is the perfect time of year to settle in with a cup of mulled cider, a warm blanket and a really good read. Here are some recommendations, some with a little help from my friends, and a big shout out to my friends at Titcomb’s Bookshop in East Sandwich MA for letting me borrow some books for this blog!

Magpie Murders

by Anthony Horowitz
This book comes highly recommended by my bookish friends Christopher and his wife Erin (I haven’t read it yet!) The book is an excellent example of a classic whodunnit while also being a story within a story.

If you liked Agatha Christie’s “Murder on the Orient Express” you’ll like this!

The Heart’s Invisible Furies

by John Boyne
My buddy Lorna who is from Ireland recommended this book, and it has become one of my favorite books of all time. It’s a story of Ireland from the 1940s to today through the eyes of one ordinary man which will make you laugh and cry while reminding us all of the redemptive power of the human spirit.

If you liked Kristin Hannah’s “The Nightingale” you’ll like this!

A Spark Of Light

by Jodi Piccoult
Jodi’s latest book is once again a hot-button topic, that explores both sides of the abortion rights in our country. I haven’t read this yet, just picked it up and anxious to dig in. If it’s anything like her last book “Small Great Things”, I know I’m going to love it!

If you liked her other novel “Nineteen Minutes” you’ll like this!
