My September TBR

There is just something about a September TBR that feels extra exciting.

Maybe it is the back-to-school feeling that never quite goes away, or the cooler evenings that make me want to curl up with a blanket and a book. Either way, September always feels like the perfect time to get a little more intentional about what I want to read.

Of course, we all know that having a TBR and actually sticking to it are two very different things. My reading mood can change completely from one week to the next, so I am trying not to treat this list like a strict checklist. Instead, think of it as a collection of books I am excited about right now.

So, here is what I am hoping to read this September.

My Book Club Picks

First up are the books I actually have commitments to read this month.

I always love having a book club book on my TBR because it gives me a little extra motivation to pick up something I might not have chosen on my own. There is also something fun about knowing that I will get to talk about the book with other readers once I finish it.

For September, my book club picks are:

Smoke and Scar by Gretchen Powell Fox

This book is a pick for a local book club called Realm Readers. It's a fantasy book club that focuses on series reads. I am excited to read this one as the description is so intriguing. AND the cover is just so pretty.

Get yours here:

Amazon

Barnes and Noble

One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig

I have heard from so many of my friends that this book is so very good so, of course, when I had the opportunity to suggest it for our buddy read book club I had no choice but to ask my friends to read it with me. 

Get yours here:

Amazon

Barnes and Noble

The House Wife by Natalie Barelli

I randomly signed up for the Cocktail Bookclub at my local bookstore because it was a mystery book and I'm always interested in a mystery read. I'm hoping this one will be exciting and also cozy at the same time. 

Get yours here:

Amazon

Barnes and Noble

The Dead Husband Cookbook by Danielle Valentine

This is our September pick for the Craft and Crime Bookclub. If you don't know what that is, be sure to check out our Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/craftandcrimebookclub

Get yours here:

Amazon

Barnes and Noble

I am especially excited to see whether these books live up to my expectations. Of course, I will have to report back once I have finished them!

ARCs I Need to Read

Next up are my ARCs, because apparently I enjoy creating deadlines for myself.

There is something especially exciting about getting to read a book before its official release date. It is also a little intimidating when several upcoming releases start piling up on your Kindle or bookshelf.

My September ARC lineup includes:

The Washwoman at the River's End by Megan Shade
Synopsis: A stunningly haunting gothic romantasy inspired by the Scottish legend of the Washerwoman, following an immortal woman cursed to wash the grave clothes of the dying for eternity and the man blood-sworn to kill her. Perfect for readers who love The Knight and the Moth, One Dark Window, and the Scottish atmosphere of Outlander.

Get yours here:

Amazon

Barnes and Noble

Carousel by Beth West

Synopsis: Ara knows the people who go into the sky do not come back.

So she’s rightly terrified when she’s taken captive on a warship after saving the life of an enemy soldier, an act seen as treason by her harshly regimented country. In the sky, she’s put through a process known as Integration, designed by the ship’s eccentric captain to bring prisoners of war onto Hevalla's side.

Because Hevalla wants to use her, and the blood magic she and other Rhavnans might have, to bolster the war effort.

But Ara is loyal. She knows what’s right.

She won’t break that easily.

And she won’t get distracted by a man she thought was dead, a former friend turned strict officer who wants to protect her...

Or by the unnerving prisoner who came up with her, who just might make her powerful.

Get yours here:

Amazon

These are some of the books I am most curious about this month, and I am hoping to get through them before their release dates. I will also be sharing my thoughts as I go, so keep an eye out for those reviews.

Books I've Been Meaning to Read Forever

And then we have the category that somehow manages to grow every single month: the books I already own.

You know the ones.

The books I bought because I was absolutely convinced I would read them immediately. The books that have been sitting on my shelves for months. The books I keep moving from one TBR list to another.

September feels like a good time to finally make some progress. And honestly, I'm not going to list them here because I have a feeling they'll get put on the back burner. 

A few books I would love to get to this month are:

The Butcher Legacy by Alaina Urquhart

I have been waiting for this book to come out so of course I am really hoping I can get to it this month! 

Get yours here:

Amazon

Barnes and Noble

A Trade of Blood by Robert Jackson Bennett

Another third in a series and I'm so excited to read it. Thank Sherlock Holmes but more eclectic and chaotic. It's so good. 

Get yours here:

Amazon

Barnes and Noble

Will I read all of them? Probably not.
Will I continue adding books to my TBR while these are waiting? Almost definitely.
But that is part of the fun.

A Few Mood-Reading Options

I also like having a few books available for when my reading mood inevitably changes.

Because sometimes you plan an entire month of mysteries and suddenly all you want to read is a romance.

Or you plan to read five new releases and suddenly that 400-page fantasy you've been avoiding looks incredibly appealing.

So I am keeping a few extra options nearby:

A cozy read for quiet evenings
A mystery or thriller for when I want something fast-paced
A romance for when I want something lighter
A book I've been saving for the perfect time
A complete wildcard that I haven't planned for at all

Because sometimes the best book you read all month is the one you never intended to pick up.

What I Hope to Read This Month

Looking at this list, I already know that I probably won't get through every single book.

And that is okay.

I am trying to remind myself that a TBR is supposed to be a list of possibilities, not a list of obligations. Reading is supposed to be something I enjoy, and I don't want to turn it into another thing I feel like I have to accomplish.

If I read everything on this list, fantastic.

If I read half of it, also fantastic.

And if I completely abandon this TBR three days into September because another book catches my attention? Well, that sounds pretty realistic too.

For now, though, I am excited about these books and looking forward to seeing where my September reading takes me.

What is on your September TBR? Tell me what you're planning to read this month, especially if there is a book you think I absolutely need to add to mine.

10 Little Ways I'm Romanticizing September

There is something about September that always feels a little magical to me.

Maybe it is the first hints of fall in the air, the return of routines, or the feeling that the year is quietly giving us another chance to start fresh. September does not need to be filled with big plans, expensive outings, or elaborate fall activities to feel special. Sometimes, it is the little things that make an ordinary day feel a bit more memorable.

Lately, I have been thinking about how I can slow down and actually enjoy this time of year instead of rushing straight toward Halloween, Thanksgiving, and the holiday season. So this September, I am romanticizing the everyday.

Here are 10 simple and inexpensive ways I am making September feel a little more magical.

1. Starting My Mornings a Little More Slowly
I am trying to resist the temptation to immediately grab my phone and jump into the day. 

After I get my workout done, I want to give myself a few extra minutes in the morning to enjoy my coffee, open the blinds, read a few pages of a book, or simply sit quietly before the day gets busy.

It does not have to be a perfectly curated morning routine. Sometimes romanticizing your life simply means actually noticing the morning you are already having.

2. Making My Coffee Feel Like an Event
I am a firm believer that you do not need to go to a coffee shop every morning to make your coffee feel special.

A favorite mug, a seasonal creamer, a little cinnamon, or even just taking the time to sit down and enjoy it can make an ordinary cup of coffee feel like a small treat.

September feels like the perfect excuse to bring out the cozy mugs and start enjoying all those little fall flavors.

I have my eye on this mug for this fall - it's so silly but I really love it:

3. Reading Somewhere Other Than My Usual Spot
One of my favorite ways to make an ordinary day feel different is to change my surroundings.

Instead of always reading in the same chair, I might take my book to a coffee shop, sit outside on a cool afternoon, head to the library, or find a quiet corner somewhere new.

The book does not have to change. Sometimes all you need is a different setting to make reading feel like an adventure.

4. Taking a Walk Just to Notice Things
Not every walk needs to be about getting steps in or checking something off a fitness list.

Sometimes I want to take a walk with no real destination and pay attention to what is around me.

The changing leaves. The cooler temperatures. The way the neighborhood looks at the beginning of fall. The houses decorated for the season.

September is such a beautiful transition month, and I want to actually notice it while it is happening.

5. Creating a September Playlist
There is something about having a soundtrack for a particular season.

I love the idea of putting together a September playlist filled with songs that make me want to roll the windows down, take a scenic drive, or curl up with a book afterward.

It does not have to be exclusively fall songs. I think the best seasonal playlists are simply songs that make you feel like that particular time of year.

And years from now, I know I will hear one of those songs and immediately be transported back to September.

6. Buying Myself One Small Seasonal Treat
I do not need to completely redecorate my house every time a new season arrives.

Instead, I like the idea of choosing one small thing that makes me happy.

Maybe it is a new candle, a cozy pair of socks, a cute mug, a fall-themed book, or a little bouquet of flowers. Or if I'm feeling the need for a sweet treat, I can get caramel apples or some other seasonal sweet treat. 

The goal is not to spend a lot of money. It is simply to bring one little thing into my everyday life that makes me smile.

7. Having a Cozy Night at Home
Not every Friday or Saturday night needs to involve going somewhere.

Sometimes the perfect September evening is staying home, putting on comfortable clothes, ordering or making something easy for dinner, lighting a candle, and settling in with a good book or movie.

I think there is something really lovely about treating a quiet night at home like an actual plan instead of something you are doing because you had no other plans.

8. Making Ordinary Errands Feel a Little More Fun
I am trying to stop thinking of errands as things I have to rush through.

Put on a playlist or podcast. Grab a coffee. Take the scenic route. Stop somewhere you've been meaning to visit. Wear an outfit you really like even though you are only going to Target.

There is no rule saying everyday errands have to feel boring.

Sometimes romanticizing your life is simply deciding that you are going to enjoy the little moments in between the big ones.

9. Having a September Reading Goal
September feels like the perfect month for a reading reset.

I want to choose a few books that I am genuinely excited about rather than turning reading into another thing I have to accomplish.

Maybe it is finally picking up the book that has been sitting on my shelf forever. Maybe it is a cozy mystery, a romance, or a book that reminds me of fall.

The goal is not necessarily to read a certain number of books. It is to make reading feel exciting again.

10. Letting September Be a Fresh Start
This might be my favorite one.

We tend to think of January as the time for fresh starts, but there is something about September that feels like a second New Year.

New routines. New goals. New books. New habits. New possibilities.

If there is something I have been putting off, September feels like a good time to begin again without waiting for January.

I do not need to completely reinvent my life. I can simply make a few small changes that make my everyday life feel more like the life I want to be living.

Romanticizing the Ordinary
I think that is what I love most about this idea of romanticizing your life.

It is not about pretending everything is perfect. It is not about spending a ton of money or creating a picture-perfect routine for social media.

It is about paying attention.

It is noticing the first cool morning of September. Enjoying your coffee. Reading a few extra pages before bed. Taking the long way home. Buying yourself flowers just because. Putting on your favorite sweater. Watching the sunset. Making an ordinary Tuesday night feel a little less ordinary.

September does not have to be extraordinary to be special.

Sometimes, we just have to slow down enough to notice that it already is.

Have a wonderful day,
Jackie

Hello, September: My Fall Bucket List

There’s just something about September that makes me want to slow down a little.

Even though summer technically isn’t over yet, September always feels like the beginning of fall to me. The mornings get a little cooler, the days start getting shorter, and suddenly I’m craving cozy blankets, warm coffee, candles, books, and all things autumn.

I’ve always loved the little traditions that come with a new season, and this year I want to be intentional about actually enjoying them instead of letting fall fly by.

So, I’m putting together my Fall Bucket List for 2026. 

Nothing on this list is meant to be complicated or expensive. I want this fall to be about the little things—the coffee dates, bookstore trips, cozy nights at home, seasonal shopping, and making memories along the way.

Here’s what I’m hoping to check off this fall!

Read a LOT of Books
Obviously, reading had to make the list.
Fall is probably my favorite time of year to read. Give me a blanket, a warm drink, a candle burning in the background, and a good book, and I am one happy girl.

This fall, I want to make more time for reading just for the fun of it. I want to pick up books that have been sitting on my TBR forever, read some spooky books in October, revisit some favorite authors, and hopefully discover a few new favorites along the way.

And yes… I fully expect my TBR to somehow grow while I’m trying to make it smaller.

Have More Coffee Dates
A lot of new coffee shops have been popping up around me that I want to try so I am adding this to my bucket list this Fall. 
There’s something about grabbing a warm coffee and sitting somewhere cozy while the leaves are changing that just feels like fall.
Some coffee dates will hopefully be with friends, but I also want to get comfortable taking myself on little solo coffee dates. Bring a book, find a cozy corner, and just enjoy a little time to myself.
Bonus points if there’s a bookstore nearby!

Take a Fall Day Trip
One of my favorite things about living in Michigan is that there are so many places to explore, especially once fall arrives.
I want to take at least one little fall day trip this year—somewhere I can walk around, grab coffee, browse local shops, take way too many pictures, and enjoy the scenery. It doesn't have to be a huge adventure. Sometimes the best days are the ones where you don't have much of a plan.

Decorate for Fall
I know some people wait until October to decorate for Halloween, but I am firmly in the camp of fall décor on September 1st.
Give me pumpkins, cozy blankets, candles, warm colors, and anything that makes my house feel a little more autumnal. I don't necessarily want to completely redecorate my house every season. I just love adding a few little touches that make everything feel cozy.
And yes, I will probably buy something I absolutely did not need because it had a pumpkin on it.

Do Some Fall Shopping
Fall shopping is dangerous for me.
The candles. The sweaters. The mugs. The blankets. The books. The seasonal décor.
I want to find a few fun fall things this year without going completely overboard. I'm especially looking forward to browsing Target, local shops, bookstores, and anywhere else that hasn't already put out their fall collections. I'm also hoping to share some of my favorite finds along the way because let's be honest—if I find something good, I'm probably going to tell you about it anyway.

Have More Cozy Nights at Home
I want to make a point of having more nights where I don't feel like I need to be doing something.
Light a candle.
Make a coffee or hot chocolate.
Put on comfy pajamas.
Grab a book.
Watch a favorite show.
And just stay home.
I think it's really easy to fill every evening with errands, plans, chores, and things that *need* to get done. This fall, I want to make room for some nights that are simply about relaxing.

Enjoy Some Fall Treats
Fall food and drinks are definitely part of the experience.
I want to enjoy some seasonal coffee drinks, visit a cider mill, have a cozy breakfast somewhere, and maybe indulge in a few fall treats along the way.
I'm not trying to make everything picture-perfect or recreate something from Pinterest. I just want to enjoy the things that make the season feel special.

Take More Fall Photos
I want to actually document the season this year.
Not just the big events, but the little moments too.
The changing leaves.
My coffee.
A stack of books.
A cute bookstore.
A pretty sunset.
A random Target find.
A cozy night at home.
Sometimes those everyday pictures end up being the ones I love looking back on the most.

Send Some Snail Mail
There's something about sending and receiving actual mail that feels extra special.
I want to send more postcards, letters, and little notes to friends and family this fall. I've been participating in Post Crossing and want to be deliberate in sending more this Fall. 
There's no reason to wait for a birthday or holiday to send someone a little something. Sometimes a simple "I was thinking about you" is enough.
And honestly, who doesn't love finding something other than a bill in their mailbox?

Get Spooky
Of course, we can't talk about fall without talking about Halloween!
I'm definitely planning on getting my spooky reading in, watching some Halloween movies, enjoying some creepy decorations, and participating in all of the fun Halloween things.
October is basically my excuse to lean into everything spooky for an entire month.
And I have absolutely no complaints about that.

Make Time for the Little Things
More than anything, I want this fall to be about enjoying the little things.
I don't need to visit every pumpkin patch, attend every event, decorate every inch of my house, or have a perfectly curated fall.
I just want to enjoy the season.
I want to read good books.
Drink good coffee.
Spend time with people I love.
Explore new places.
Take pictures.
Laugh a lot.
And create a few memories that I'll be happy to look back on when winter eventually arrives.

My Fall Bucket List
So, here it is—the official list I'm hoping to check off this season:

And that's my goal for September through November: less rushing, more enjoying

I don't know how many things I'll actually check off this list, and honestly, that's okay.
The point isn't to have a perfect fall.
The point is to have a fall that I actually *remember*.

Now I want to know—what's on your fall bucket list this year? Is there a fall tradition you look forward to every year, or something new you're hoping to try?

Tell me in the comments! I may just have to add a few more things to my list. 
 

Have a wonderful day,
Jackie

Now, it comes to life across North American stages, with a grand, Tony Award-winning production design befitting the 21^st century.

“This production is a big, bold, Broadway version of The Great Gatsby. It’s thrilling to see these indelible characters and iconic moments from the novel come to life on stage.  This stage production, which honors the novel and its history while also speaking clearly to today’s audiences, is a terrific new iteration of this classic work.”  - The Estate of F. Scott Fitzgerald

 

THE GREAT GATSBY features music & lyrics by Tony Award nominees Jason Howland (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, Little Women) and Nathan Tysen (Paradise Square), a book by Jonathan Larson Grant winner Kait Kerrigan (The Mad Ones), and is staged by award-winning director Marc Bruni (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical) and choreographer Dominique Kelley (“Mariah’s Magical Christmas Special”, “Dancing with the Stars”).

The Broadway production of THE GREAT GATSBY began previews at The Broadway Theatre on Friday, March 29, 2024, and opened on Thursday, April 25, 2024, where it continues to thrill audiences and break box office records. The Broadway production followed a record-breaking world-premiere engagement at Paper Mill Playhouse, where it was the highest grossing show in that organization’s history.

 

THE GREAT GATSBY made its West End debut at the London Coliseum, which began previews on April 11, 2025, officially opened on April 24, and closed on September 7. The successful Seoul production recently finished its residency at the GS Arts Center in the Gangnam District of Seoul.

 

One of the most popular novels of all time, The Great Gatsby is a New York Times and USA Today perennial best seller. It has sold over 30 million copies worldwide since its release in 1925 and continues to sell over 500,000 per year. The novel has been translated into over 42 different languages, and has been adapted into television shows, radio plays, video games, and multiple films – including the blockbuster Baz Luhrmann feature film starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss devised the original concept and started writing SIX when they were students at Cambridge University in early 2017. It was first presented as the Cambridge University Musical Theatre Society’s submission to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe later that year, playing a one-month run and featuring student actors. SIX went on to get picked up by UK Producers and a new production was mounted, with professional actors and a predominantly new creative team, at the Norwich Playhouse and then again at Edinburgh Festival in 2018. A limited engagement at the Arts Theatre in London garnered the WhatsOnStage Award for Best Off-West End Production and the show toured the UK in the autumn of 2018 before returning to the Arts Theatre and subsequently the Lyric Theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue. SIX is currently playing an open-ended run at the Vaudeville Theatre on the Strand. SIX earned five 2019 Laurence Olivier Award nominations, including Best New Musical.

 

The Boleyn Tour of SIX launched in Las Vegas at The Smith Center on September 20, 2022, and is playing cities throughout North America. Tour dates have been announced through Summer 2026. Casting to be announced.

 

SIX is also currently playing on Broadway at the Lena Horne Theatre in New York City, at the Vaudeville Theatre in London’s West End, on tour in the UK and Ireland and Europe.
