Happy Birthday to the Queen of Mystery. Where would we be without her inventive genius? She set the bar so high. Do yourself a favor and pick up one of her books!

How many on this non-exhaustive list have you read? Which ones would you add to make this non-exhaustive list a longer and arguably better non-exhaustive list?

Those of you who have read all these books get a high five!

I love books that make me wrestle big questions like ā€œwhat is a life of faith supposed to look like, especially when things it doesnā€™t go as you planned hoped or dreamed?ā€

Death Comes for the Archbishop is a slow, sparse, expansive work of faith and doubt and duty. An excellent and beautiful read!

Thanks Douglas Calmes | Book Reviewer for putting me onto to Willa Cather!

And S/O to Sean Doherty and Janae šŸ“š and Susan for joining me on the inaugural Gentā€™s Book Club read!

Weā€™re reading Jayber Crow on Fable for September so find the Gentā€™s Book Club and read along with us!

These books bring the fall vibes, some more intentionally than others. So while the leaves are falling, and the football is balling, and the pumpkin spice is calling, grab a book and settle in. There are great stories ready to be told.

Do you have a fall favorite?
