September has started, which means school has started started. If you’re in school you know that means that teachers no longer tell you fun facts about themselves in class, and instead have started to tell you when homework is due. Despite this reintroduced workload, this month has been fun. I have been able to visit some colleges, hang out with friends, and see the changing fall leaves. Most importantly, I got to read some books! Here are all the books I read in September. 

All the Right Reasons by Bethany Mangle

All the Right Reasons is a book that was made for fans of reality TV. The book follows a mother and daughter duo who end up on a reality TV show. However, much like reality TV readers only get some snippet of the characters inner thoughts. This book was a really fun read, with a believable plot twist. If I had to compare this book to a reality TV show I would say it's a mix of the Bachelorette and Dance Moms (not for the dancing but for the relationships). 

Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro

I’ll be honest this book was assigned in school. It is not a book I would have picked out myself, but I am happy I read it. Ishiguro has command over language that allows the characters and plot to be extremely insightful. Now, would I read this book again, probably not. However, I have enough awareness to know why some consider Klara and the Sun a literary masterpiece. If you like books that take place in a dystopian type society, and warn of the dangers of technology, Klara and the Sun could be the book for you. 

American Royals by Katharine McGee

American Royals reimagines the US as a country with a monarchy, and focuses on the princesses and princes of the royal family. This book made me upset. Let’s just say not every princess gets a happily ever after. This book felt kind of like a tell all podcast, that does stories on the British Royal Family. If you love information sharing (some might call it gossip, but it truly is just combining information to inform others) then you will probably like this book.
