5 BOOKS YOU NEED TO READ THIS AUTUMN

1. It Starts With Us by Colleen Hoover
It all started with Atlas before it ended with us. In this long-awaited sequel to the "beautiful and poignant" It Ends with Us, Colleen Hoover offers fan-favorite Atlas' side of the tale and reveals what happens next.
Lily and her ex-husband, Ryle, had just gotten into a peaceful co-parenting routine when she runs into her first love, Atlas, for the second time. After nearly two years apart, she is overjoyed that time is now on their side, and she eagerly says yes when Atlas asks her out on a date.
Her delight is swiftly dampened by the realization that, despite the fact that they are no longer married, Ryle is still very much a part of her life—and Atlas Corrigan is the one man he will despise having in the lives of his ex-wife and daughter.
It Starts with Us continues up just where the epilogue for the "gripping, pulse-pounding" bestselling phenomenon It Ends with Us left off, switching between Lily and Atlas' perspectives.

2. Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
Elizabeth Zott, a chemist, is not your typical woman. Elizabeth Zott, for example, would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it's the early 1960s, and her all-male Hastings Research Institute staff takes an unscientific approach to equality. Calvin Evans is a lonely, bright, Nobel-prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with her mind, of all things. The outcome is true chemistry.
Life, like science, is unpredictable. As a result, a few years later, Elizabeth Zott is not only a single mother, but also the reluctant star of America's most popular cookery show, Supper at Six. Elizabeth's unconventional cooking method ("combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride") is groundbreaking.

3. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
The Alchemist, which combines magic, mysticism, wisdom, and wonders into a stirring story of self-discovery, has become a modern classic, selling millions of copies worldwide and affecting the lives of countless readers across decades.
The magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd lad who longs to go in search of a worldly treasure, is told in Paulo Coelho's masterwork. His quest will bring him riches very different—and far more satisfying—than he could have dreamed. Santiago's journey teaches us the critical value of listening to our hearts, recognizing opportunity, learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, most importantly, following our aspirations.

4. The Reading List by Sara Nisha Adams
A fascinating and poignant debut about how an accidental encounter with a list of library books helps two very different people in a London suburb form an unlikely relationship. Mukesh, a widower, lives a tranquil life in the London Borough of Ealing after the death of his beloved wife. He goes to Temple every Wednesday and worries about his granddaughter, Priya, who hides in her room reading while he spends his evenings watching nature programs.
Aleisha, a bright but worried adolescent, is working at the local library for the summer when she discovers a crumpled-up piece of paper in the back of To Kill a Mockingbird. It's a list of books she's never read before. She is intrigued and bored with her slow job at the checkout counter, so she decides to read every book on the list one after the other. As each fiction loses its enchantment, the books carry Aleisha away from the unpleasant reality she faces at home.
Aleisha sends along the reading list when Mukesh comes to the library, wanting to bond with his bookish granddaughter... I'm hoping it will be a lifeline for him as well. Slowly, the shared novels forge a bond between two lonely individuals, as fiction allows them to escape their pain and everyday worries and rediscover delight.

Reading books is never a waste of time; it is the most lovely moment of our lives when we are alone, resting, relaxing, and left to adventures, experiences, and new knowledge of interesting stories and characters from books.
