Best Books to Read in Autumn

With today’s equinox, Autumn is officially here. Whilst it might be hard to wave goodbye to pleasant summer evenings, we’re also incredibly excited to dive into the most colourful season. The best thing about Autumn, if you ask us? Brewing a nice cup of tea, curling up in the comfiest reading nook and enjoying a good read.

Here are the best books to read in autumn to get you in the mood for crispy afternoons outdoors and cosy nights in.

Little Women - Louisa May Alcott

Rereading the lives of the four March girls will bring you that warmth that only nostalgia can give.

It’s in the title! This complex post-Brexit novel doesn’t fail to bring to life a typical British autumn in many passages.

The ahistorical setting of this travelling circus that is only open from sunset to sunrise is perfect for the season of longer nights.

Not a fiction book, but it contains the recipe for a perfect autumn inspired by the Scandinavian lifestyle.

After all, the arrival of the “single man in possession of a good fortune” is in late September. Need we say more?
