The first annual BiblioLifestyle Fall Reading Guide is finally here, and I’m super excited for it to be out in the world!  Since childhood, fall has always been my favorite season.  I have fond memories of cozying up under a blanket with my book or sitting under my favorite apple tree reading in the cooler weather.

The 2020 Fall Reading Guide Minimalist List
In the guide, we have dedicated one category to the “minimalist reader.” Â Our Minimalist Reads list has six titles that we highly recommend if you’re only planning to pick up a few reads this Fall!
It’s super hard narrowing an initial list of hundreds of books down to a third of the size and then narrowing them down to our top six. Â You can expect these reads to be across genres, beautifully written, compelling, thought-provoking, enjoyable, and great for discussions.
The 2020 Fall Reading Guide Minimalist List
The Bass Rock by Evie Wyld
The lives of three women ― Sarah is accused of being a witch, Ruth is navigating life in the aftermath of World War II, Viv is still mourning the death of her father and is cataloging Ruth’s belongings ― weave together across centuries while highlighting the devastating indictment of violence against women. It is also an empowering portrait of their resilience throughout the ages.
Leave the World Behind by Rumaan Alam
A novel about two families, strangers to each other, who are forced together on a long weekend gone terribly wrong. It’s a novel about the complexities of parenthood, race and class, how our closest bonds are reshaped — and unexpected new ones are forged— in moments of crisis.
