Happy All Hallow’s Read from Entitle!
It’s October. Wait, we’ll say it again. It is OCTOBER, already. Where has the time gone? But here’s our secret, we’re not complaining because fall is one of our favorite times of the year. We love the changing leaves, the pumpkin spice…everything, crisp fall days followed by cooler fall evenings, and most importantly…it’s the absolute perfect time to curl up with a great read.
We don’t know about you but as leaves fall outside our window and we have a crackling fire in the background, the only thing missing is the perfect book to read, the book that makes you sink deeper into the sofa cushions as that great story wraps around you like a blanket. So, it’s time to trade in those bathing suits for your fall sweaters and fall into one (or as we always say, a few) of these great titles.
We Are Not Ourselves: You won’t find any perfect people in this book. An honest and brilliant debut novel that tells the story of 6 generations of an Irish American family. We’re calling it now, this one may be an award contender.
Wayfaring Stranger: A tender love story and pulse-pounding thriller that crosses continents and decades of American history. You can just tell you are reading a great story with this new novel by Mr. Burke. You won’t be able to wait to get to the last page, yet you won’t want the book to end. Prepare to pull an all-nighter.
All The Light We Cannot See: Yes, we had this book on our summer reads list. But if you haven’t read it yet, it needs to make its way to your fall reads list. You will get lost in the pages of this beautiful instant NYT bestseller about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II.
A Man Called Ove: Grumpy old man? Everything is not what it seems in this bestselling and delightfully quirky debut novel from Sweden. This feel good novel about the profound impact one life has on countless others takes you on a journey and ultimately shows you that what you see isn’t always what you get.
One Kick: This new series brings dark subjects to light written in a way that Chelsea Cain has learned to master. Kick is a compelling and fascinating heroine and the twisty-turn plot in One Kick is a suspenseful page-turner.
Burying Water: The start of another new series, K.A Tucker hits it out of the park with this story. Left for dead in the fields of rural Oregon, imagine waking up with no idea who you are or what happened to you. This heartbreakingly beautiful story about the power of love and the strength and courage that comes from within will leave you eagerly awaiting the next book in this series.
She’s Come Undone: We love this book. But what amazes us most is how perfectly Wally Lamb can get inside the head of a 13-year old girl’s head. Dolores is having a tough life – dad left, mom’s got major issues, and Dolores seeks comfort in marshmallows. If we had a nickel….
One For The Money: Ah, the first in the Stephanie Plum series. A gutsy female protagonist you’re sure to love as much as we do.
Gone With the Wind: Sure, it’s a really long book BUT it’s got everything…romance, thrills, and a spoiled young girl who sees the Civil War forever change her way of life. A great American novel that has a place on every reading list.
The Dream Catcher: We love J.D. Salinger and wanted to know more about this reclusive writer so we were drawn to this memoir written by his daughter. If you’re a fan like us, you’ll enjoy this very well written memoir. Ms. Salinger decodes some of J.D Salinger’s writing for us and tells a woeful story about growing up as his daughter.
Collide: Love roller coasters and love triangles? Then add this series to your list. Get ready to lock yourself in because you won’t want to put this one down (warning: you may fall in love). Luckily, when you’ve finished the last page, you can devour Pulse, just prepare yourself to fall even more in love with your our new book boyfriend, Gavin. Hey, Gail McHugh, can you (pretty) please write faster?
The Rosie Project: Imagine Sheldon Cooper trying to find love….he begins “The Wife Project”….enter quirky barmaid, Rosie. From there an unlikely and hilarious romance ensues. This quirky novel about a logical quest to find love has a lot of heart. We’re not surprised this one is bound for the big screen and we’ll be one of the first in line.
Comeback Love: Who doesn’t wonder about the one who got away? We love this story of two people who fell in love in the 1960’s and were torn apart by a draft notice only to be reunited years later. We all want this kind of love story, don’t we?
I Am Pilgrim: Another one that was on our summer reads list but since it’s one of our favorite thrillers of the year, it’s making its way onto our fall reads list (hint: read it 🙂 ). This debut espionage thriller by Terry Hayes depicting the collision course between 2 geniuses, a tortured hero and a determined terrorist, is a page-turner full of shocking twists that may have you up all night but trust us, it’s a good great thing.

The Heart of Everything That Is: The Untold Story of Red Cloud, An American Legend
Bob Drury and Tom Clavin (History & Biography)
The great Sioux warrior-statesman Red Cloud was the only American Indian in history to defeat the United States Army in a war, forcing the government to sue for peace on his terms. At the peak of Red Cloud’s powers the Sioux could claim control of one-fifth of the contiguous United States and the loyalty of thousands of fierce fighters. But the fog of history has left Red Cloud strangely obscured. Now, thanks to the rediscovery of a lost autobiography, and painstaking research by two award-winning authors, the story of our nation’s most powerful and successful Indian warrior can finally be told.
In The Heart of Everything That Is, Bob Drury and Tom Clavin, the New York Times bestselling authors of Halsey’s Typhoon and The Last Stand of Fox Company, restore Red Cloud to his rightful place in American history in a sweeping and dramatic narrative based on years of primary research.
The Bully Pulpit: Theodore Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, and the Golden Age of Journalism
Doris Kearns Goodwin (History & Biography)
The gap between rich and poor has never been wider . . . legislative stalemate paralyzes the country . . . corporations resist federal regulations . . . spectacular mergers produce giant companies . . . the influence of money in politics deepens . . . bombs explode in crowded streets . . . small wars proliferate far from our shores . . . a dizzying array of inventions speeds the pace of daily life.
These unnervingly familiar headlines serve as the backdrop for Doris Kearns Goodwin’s highly anticipated The Bully Pulpit—a dynamic history of the first decade of the Progressive era, that tumultuous time when the nation was coming unseamed and reform was in the air.
Karma Gone Bad: How I Learned to Love Mangos, Bollywood and Water Buffalo
Jenny Feldon (Memoir & Autobiography)
Made in America. Outsourced to India. At Home with Herself? A charming yet honest memoir of one Upper West side housewife who finds herself saying good-bye to Starbucks and all her notions of “home” when she and her husband are outsourced to Hyderabad.
Jenny Feldon imagined life in India as a glitzy yoga whirlwind. Instead she found buffalo-related traffic jams. Jenny struggled to fight the depression, bitterness, and anger as her sense of self and her marriage began to unravel. And it was all India’s fault–wasn’t it? Equally frustrating, revealing, and amusing, this is the true story of an accidental housewife trapped in the third world.
Bellman & Black
Diane Setterfield (Fantasy)

Alligator Blood: The Spectacular Rise and Fall of the High-rolling Whiz-kid who Controlled Online Poker’s Billions
James Leighton (Non-fiction Thriller, Poker)
Daniel Tzvetkoff was just another Brisbane teenager working for peanuts at Pizza Hut. That is until he discovered the lucrative world of payment processing for online poker companies. Soon the Australian whiz-kid was living the American dream, raking in as much as $3m a week. Revelling in his jet set lifestyle of fast cars, luxury yachts and VIP nightclubs, he embarked on an epic rollercoaster of champagne fuelled excess which mirrored that of the extraordinary world of online poker, where hot shot college students won millions from the confines of their dorms, and fortunes were won or lost in seconds.
However, Tzvetkoff’s move to the neon splattered underworld of Las Vegas would soon see him facing the abyss. Owing millions to the poker companies, and with the FBI hot on his trail, the tarnished boy wonder needed to pull an ace from his sleeve to keep from busting out. And when he did, it resulted in a day that sent a seismic shockwave through the world of online poker and saw him take the blame.
