Another season, another busy few months, another too ambitious reading list. This fall's list is far too extensive, but I'll be happy to read even a handful of these books when I have a chance between classes, work, and anything else going on. There are a bunch of recent and upcoming releases that I'm really looking forward to getting to in between reading for school (such as Little Fires Everywhere, Artemis, They Both Die at the End, and Sing, Unburied, Sing). I'm also excited to continue flying through Megan Whalen Turner's fantastic Queen's Thief series, hopefully picking up more Margaret Atwood and Neil Gaiman, and reading some books that feel perfect for fall.
