They are dark, deep and atmospheric. They brought a lot of beauty and mystery into the colder days. I can definitely recommend all stories from this edition.<\/p>\n
2. The Birds<\/em> by Daphne du Maurier<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Screen](\"https:\/\/readerwitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/screen-shot-2018-11-19-at-18-14-38.png\")
<\/p>\n
Right, the second place is taken by du Maurier too. She is like those actors who jump on the stage and take all the prizes. She\u2019s indeed that outstanding, as well as her novelette The Birds<\/em>. I made a research about this book, looking into the accusations of plagiarism and comparing it to other works of the same name. Follow the link<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n3. The Little Stranger<\/em> by Sarah Waters<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Screen](\"https:\/\/readerwitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/screen-shot-2018-11-08-at-15-11-44.png\")
<\/p>\n
I\u2019m not sure if the shorter days are turning me into a reader of gothic or I just have a natural inclination to this genre, but my third most favourite book of the month is gothic again. The Little Stranger<\/em> is a story about a noble family, a local doctor and a dilapidating creepy mansion. I had an audiobook version of the story and absolutely loved the narrator\u2019s performance.<\/p>\n4. The Rosie Project<\/em> by Graeme Simsion<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Screen](\"https:\/\/readerwitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/screen-shot-2018-11-08-at-15-15-20.png\")
<\/p>\n
A contrast to all the gothic above, The Rosie Project<\/em> is light, funny and heartwarming. It\u2019s a modern story about an autistic scientist who\u2019s setting off on a quest to find a perfect wife for himself.<\/p>\n5. Bone Gap<\/em> by Laura Ruby<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Screen](\"https:\/\/readerwitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/screen-shot-2018-11-21-at-16-56-52.png\")
<\/p>\n
Bone Gap<\/em> is an unusual item on this blog because it\u2019s a young adult novel. This book showed me that young adult genre doesn\u2019t necessarily mean simplistic or primitive. It\u2019s a story about a small town with some magical powers. It’s about human nature, relationships and the ways people see each other. I liked the actual story and the bigger ideas of the book.<\/p>\n6. The Seven Sisters<\/em> by Lucinda Riley<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Screen](\"https:\/\/readerwitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/screen-shot-2018-11-08-at-15-02-01.png\")
<\/p>\n
The Seven Sisters<\/em> is the first book in the series about seven sisters (with a book per sister, I guess) who are discovering their true histories after their adoptive parent dies. The first book travels through time and continents and has several love stories in it. It\u2019s well-written and interesting. Even though there\u2019s not too much romance, there\u2019s still too much of it for my personal liking, so I won\u2019t continue with the series, but I\u2019m sure many people will love the book.<\/p>\n7. Bitter Orange<\/em> by Claire Fuller<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Screen](\"https:\/\/readerwitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/screen-shot-2018-11-27-at-09-47-09.png\")
<\/p>\n
This book takes the final position among the books I liked because I can\u2019t say I liked it that much. It was beautifully written, with a very deep exploration of human mind and psychology but I didn\u2019t like the aftertaste of the story and the personality of the characters.<\/p>\n
There are two more books that didn\u2019t make it to the list above because I didn\u2019t like them. I\u2019m happy I have read them as a part of my experiment and research.<\/p>\n
1. The Birds<\/em> by Frank Baker<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Screen](\"https:\/\/readerwitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/screen-shot-2018-11-19-at-19-40-23.png\")
<\/p>\n
This is the book that Daphne du Maurier was accused of plagiarising. There\u2019s a definite similarity between the two books. Both have birds attacking people and changing the course of human history. Frank Baker\u2019s work has much more philosophy in it. It\u2019s full of deep ideas and contemplations but it\u2019s unbearably boring to read. The style of writing is a torture. I\u2019m glad I had a chance to compare the two works myself but I can\u2019t recommend Frank Baker\u2019s book to anybody.<\/p>\n
2. Uprooted<\/em> by Naomi Novik<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Screen](\"https:\/\/readerwitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/screen-shot-2018-11-24-at-15-09-07.png\")
<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a much loved book among fantasy readers but I had to push myself to find things I could like about it. Even though I found some, they were still overshadowed by those I disliked. I\u2019m glad I took this leap into fantasy because next time I will take a more careful step into this genre.<\/p>\n
I also listened to a couple of curious programs that are not actually audiobooks but I found them awesome anyway. In order not to overload you with information, I\u2019ll post about them in a separate post, so stay tuned.<\/p>\n
Off to the final month of the year! Hopefully I will discover more fantastic books to tell you about.<\/p>\n
