Musings on Creativity: Fall Book Suggestions

As I am sure you have surmised, I love to read. I always carry a book with me just in case I have a spare minute to read a few more pages.
I just finished a book I love and have a couple of other suggestions for fall reading.
Reading good English romantic mystery novels is to me a perfect way to spend a chilled fall afternoon curled up beneath a blanket with a cuppa tea!! I just finished a book that fits this yearning, The Crimson Rooms, by Katharine McMahon.

This book captures your attention from the start, has romance and a murder to solve. It is set in England in the 1920′s, the main character is a woman, and you will find yourself sneaking time in to read to find out who dunnit!
Another mystery and romance, though set in the USA is The Book of Illusions, by Paul Auster. This story is also captivating, but much different tone than the romantic English novel. Give it a try, you will see what I mean!

My last suggestion follows the romance thread but in a historical fiction vein, Hotel on the Corner of the Bitter and Sweet by Jamie Ford.

I had heard a lot of buzz about this book from friends. Honestly, I thought it would be a trite romance loved by book clubs, but I found it captivating and fresh! I also learned a lot about the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII.

Happy Reading!
