‘Hooo’ read a lot this month? Me, apparently

A bunch of books in front of a brick wall on a plaid blanket, sandwiched between two decorative owls. There is a tiny figuring of an owl in the front on a pumpkin that reads “Fabulous Fall”
The books are:
The Austen Affair by Madeline Bell
Everything She Does is Magic by Bridget Morrissy
Make Me a Monster by Kalynn Bayron
Red City by Marie Lu
A Steeping of Blood by Hafsah Faizal
The Dead of Summer by Ryan La Sala
Defanged by H.E. Edgmon
The Second Death of Locke by V.L. Bovalino
Extraordinary Quests for Amateur Witches by Kayla Cottingham
The Transition by Logan-Ashley Kisner
Hollow by Taylor Grothe
