Top Ten Tuesday: Books On My Fall 2022 To-Read List


Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl

Here are ten books that I’m looking forward to reading this fall. If there isn’t a release date included, that title was already published earlier this month.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. The Sunbearer Trials by Aiden Thomas

Why It Interests Me: It’s been a long time since I’ve read any high fantasy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Self-Made Boys: A Great Gatsby Remix by Anna-Marie McLemore

Why It Interests Me: I was not a fan of The Great Gastby when I read it back in high school. Maybe I’ll like it more as a retelling? People’s tastes can change over time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. Sweet and Sour by Debbie Michiko Florence

Why It Interests Me: The friendship between the two main characters looks so sweet.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. The Gathering Dark: An Anthology of Folk Horror edited by Tori Bovalino

Why It Interests Me: Can you believe that Halloween is less than six weeks away? I need to start thinking about what spooky stuff I should read for it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5. Vanessa Jared’s Got a Man – A Novel by

Release Date: Today

Why It Interests Me: There’s nothing like cleansing your palette with a fluffy romance novel after reading something really scary if you ask me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6. Soulmates by Susan Lee

Release Date: Today

Why It Interests Me: Don’t laugh, but I love puns in titles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7. House of Hunger by Alexis Henderson

Release Date: September 27

Why It Interests Me: This is the perfect time of year to read about vampires. I mean, would Halloween really be Halloween without them?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8. Anne of Greenville by Mariko

Release Date: October 4

Why It Interests Me: As the editors of Long and Short Reviews have already noticed, I love new finding Anne of Green Gables retellings. Who knows? Maybe I’ll review this one for them after it comes out, too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

9. The Age of Goodbyes by Li Zi Shu, Y.Z. Chin (translator)

Release Date: November 8

Why It Interests Me: The blurb makes this sounds like a dense but ultimately rewarding read. It also reminded me of some stories from my ancestors that sometimes conflict with each other or with what the history records officially say. The truth can be rewritten so easily that it can be hard to tell what really happened in certain cases!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

10. We Deserve Monuments by Jas Hammonds

Release Date: November 29

Why It Interests Me: Every single subplot in this book sounds intriguing to me, from the stress of switching schools to dealing with prejudice to having a seriously ill relative. Some of it reminds me of what I had to juggle alongside my studies when I was a teenager.  You never know what other people are quietly struggling with in life or what you might share in common with a stranger.

  17. I love puns for book titles as well! I read one earlier this year called “For Butter or Worse” it was a romance about competing chefs.

  18. I have a bunch of these on my TBR but lemme tell ya Self-Made Boys is fantastic! So much better than the original

I love Anne Of Green Gables and Anne With An E but I haven’t read the other Anne books or any retellings – I’ll have to check some out! I also love puns in titles and Seoulmates I am so tempted by! Looks like you have a great list for autumn 2022! Happy reading!

  30. Wow, I’ve not heard of Anne of Green Gables retellings. I didn’t know that was a thing. I’ll have to check one out.

    • Yeah, there have been a few different ones over the past several years. I think it’s marvelous to see old classic stories being updated for modern times. Maybe it will convince some folks to read the originals, too!

  31. I wasn’t previously familiar with Self-Made Boys, but I did actually like The Great Gatsby when I was in high school, so I’m down to try a retelling of it. Great list!

  32. Great selection, I’d read Sweet and Sour and I’ve heard House of Hunger is a pretty good one too. Hope you enjoy your reads.

  34. Seoulmates and The Sunbearer Trials both sound amazing. Hope you’ll love all of these!

  35. Oooh, I somehow completely forgot about The Sunbearer Trials! I definitely want to read that, too. Hope you enjoy your reads!

  36. Susan’s book does look cute! I think I read about that one a while back and I just love a sweet romance. 🙂 Thanks so much for visiting my website on this week. Apologies I didn’t visit before now.

  37. I hope all of these are great reads for you!

  38. I love the cover of We Deserve Monuments. She looks fierce. I hope you enjoy your TBR!
