My Favourite Autumn Reads

Sobald es draussen wieder kälter ist, die Tage kürzer werden und die Blätter ihre Farben wechseln, ist die wohl beste Zeit des Jahres zum Lesen eingeläutet. Für mich schaffen der Herbst und Winter die perfekte Atmosphäre, um sich in eine warme Decke gewickelt mit einem Buch ins Bett zu kuscheln - neben sich eine Tasse Tee und eine Kerze und das Ganze wird noch besser. Damit ihr aber auch genug Lesestoff für die kälteren Tage habt, möchte ich euch heute einige meiner Lieblingsbücher für den Herbst zeigen. Von Fantasy über YA Contemporaries bis hin zu Gedichten ist da alles dabei!

Lies We Tell Ourselves by Robin Talley - Review

“Sarah's right. We punish ourselves so much in our own imaginations. We convince ourselves everything we do, everything we think, is wrong. For eighteen years I've believed what other people told me about what was right and what was wrong. From now. I'm deciding.” - Robin Talley

The Girl Who Smiled Beads by Clemantine Wamariya - Review♡

“It's strange, how you go from being a person who is away from home to a person with no home at all. The place that is supposed to want you has pushed you out. No other place takes you in. You are unwanted, by everyone. You are a refugee.” – Clemantine Wamariya

What If It`s Us by Adam Silvera & Becky Albertalli - Review♡

“I barely know him. I guess that is every relationship. You start with nothing and maybe end with everything.” - Adam Silvera♡

Little & Lion by Brandy Colbert - Review♡

“Lionel said as much to me once, how so many of the same people who are quick to empathize with physical disabilities don't understand why someone with depression can't just get up and get on with their day like the rest of the world. It's like they need a receipt that proves someone is actually going through some shit before they care about them.” - Brandy Colbert♡

Dumplin` by Julie Murphy - Review♡

“I think maybe it’s the things we don’t want to talk about that are the things people most want to hear.” - Julie Murphy♡

Falling - Ich kann dich nicht vergessen von Estelle Maskame - Review♡

"Einen Moment lang stehen wir uns gegenüber. Alles ist so ruhig und still, dass ich nicht wage, mich zu rühren und die stillschweigende Verbindung zwischen uns zu zerstören. Ich kann seine Züge gerade so erkennen, und frage mich, was ich eigentlich hier im Dunkeln vor Jaden Hunters Haustür mache." - Estelle Maskame♡

Every Last Word by Tamara Ireland Stone - Review♡

"I didn’t go there looking for you. I went looking for me.” My voice is soft, low, and shaky. “But now, here you are, and somehow, in finding you, I think I’ve found myself." - Tamara Ireland Stone♡

They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera - Review♡

"I've spent years living safely to secure a longer life, and look where that's gotten me. I'm at the finish line but I never ran the race." - Adam Silvera♡

Bis ans Ende der Geschichte von Jodi Picoult - Review♡

“History isn't about dates and places and wars. It's about the people who fill the spaces between them.” - Jodi Picoult♡

Hello Sunshine von Laura Dave - Review♡

“Did it every occur to you that if you weren't living in fear of other people's opinions of you, no one would have the power to take anything away?” - Laura Dave♡

We Were Liars by E. Lockhart - Review♡

“He was contemplation and enthusiasm. Ambition and strong coffee. I could have looked at him forever.” - E. Lockhart♡

I Am Thunder by Muhammad Khan - Review♡

"I am thunder. And I won`t keep quiet." - Muhammad Khan♡

Every Day by David Levithan - Review♡

“If there's one thing I've learned, it's this: We all want everything to be okay. We don't even wish so much for fantastic or marvelous or outstanding. We will happily settle for okay, because most of the time, okay is enough.” - David Levithan♡

The Exact Opposite Of Okay by Laura Steven - Review♡

“Bitches bite back. And men hate that. Society hates that.” - Laura Steven♡

Mörder Anders und seine Freunde nebst dem einen oder anderen Feind von Jonas Jonasson - Review♡

“The priest and the receptionist joyfully and contentedly shared their genuine dislike of the world, including the entirety of the Earth's population. The burden was now only half as great, since each of them could take on three and a half billion people rather than seven billion alone.” - Jonas Jonasson♡

My Favourite Poetry Collections #1♡

"Poetry is language at its most distilled and most powerful." - Rita Dove♡

The Hate U Give von Angie Thomas - Review♡

“That's the problem. We let people say stuff, and they say it so much that it becomes okay to them and normal for us. What's the point of having a voice if you're gonna be silent in those moments you shouldn't be?” - Angie Thomas♡

On Beauty by Zadie Smith - Review♡

“The greatest lie ever told about love is that it sets you free.” - Zadie Smith♡

Mein Leben oder ein Haufen unvollkommener Momente von Peter Bognanni - Review♡

“What I mean is that nothing ever happens the way it’s supposed to. Everything is messed up. Everything is flawed. And if we didn’t have imperfection, I’m not sure what we would have left.” - Peter Bognanni♡

Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green & David Levithan - Review♡

“When things break, it's not the actual breaking that prevents them from getting back together again. It's because a little piece gets lost - the two remaining ends couldn't fit together even if they wanted to. The whole shape has changed.” - John Green♡
