I totally agree with you about Never let me go!! Gosh, it really moved me! Still struggling to find words to describe why this book is so powerful. It makes one want to step in and fight for those poor doomed beautiful characters. It made me so very sad and angry that I had to keep reminding myself: “it’s just a book, it’s just fiction, calm down”. And it is so well written. It’s a modern classic!

Hi Carolyn I watch your videos on occasion. You're the only book reading KZbinr whom I genuinely respect.There a odd older fellow on KZbin who opines about books and is interesting in much the same "odd" way, and there is a young bearded fellow who visits thrift stores buying books and opines about Science Fiction, but neither is as thorough and sensitive a reader as you seem to be. Congratulations! No other book KZbinr compares. BTW, I seem to recall that Dickens himself preferred Great Expectations just as you do.

Hi, CarolynMarie, thank you for sharing ! How comes I want to read every book you’re recommending, even if it is fantasy? Beside Harry Potter and Lord of the rings, which I both love, I never pick it up, and now I’m (almost) ready to read Game of Thrones… 'Great expectations ' and some books of Ishiguro I wanted to read for ages… So my autumnal list has expanded a lot. So far I never could come into DORIAN GRAY, although I love all Oscar Wilde's plays and ran to the theatre, whenever a play is on stage. Maybe I’ll give a new try. In autumn I love the Inspector Gamache series from Louise Penny, situated in Canada, even the (German) covers are so beautiful, you think of maple syrup and 'hygge' in the small village of Three Pines, where also unhappy things happen, but Gamache always find out whodunnit and even why. His beloved wife Reine Marie at his side inspires him and helps him by understanding his difficult job as chief of Sûreté and later after retirement. A cosy book shop and a bistro and the many bizarre but lovable characters are the cream on the top. Wish you a wonderful autumnly read, love, how you made different sections, for witch lovers, people who want to cry by candlelight😂… very creative ideas! Love, Monika❣

Thank you for the list. I doubt I'll get to many of them, but one tries. As far as Fall suggestions go: Every couple of years I re-read Steppenwolf by Herman Hesse, always in the Fall. Not quite sure what the connection between the two is, but that's when I always choose to pick it up again. It is certainly a heady mix, if it is nothing else. As far as ghosts and graveyards go, I am currently (slowly) re-reading A Fine and Private Place, by Peter S. Beagle. I'm afraid I can't give it a ringing endorsement, but it must be one of the first books you could classify as Urban Fantasy, if it is nothing else. References to President Eisenhower, etc., will doubtless hopelessly date it for some. It also seems to have gone out of print, and though copies are available at Amazon there is neither ebook or audiobook for sale.

I loved "The Shadow of the Wind", again, read it in its original version (Spanish), which is not very easy, as the author uses lots of very particular expressions. It might be interesting to know that this is the first part of a series of 4 books, a couple of years later I bought the whole series for my Kindle, again in the original version, and by now I have read 3 out of 4 books. The first two I liked very much, the third one I didn't like a lot, it was very sombre. Hoping that the fourth one will be great again. Meanwhile the author has died. Last year I also read "Wuthering Heights", again in its original language version (English is not my mother tongue). I had a little booklet to help me with some of the Yorkshire dialect. I loved it, though it is a very special kind of story. I also read "Perfume" in its original version (German), it felt really easy to me to read it in that language, I loved it, unfortunately I had already seen the film years before reading it, yet I loved the book.
