September is here, which means it’s time for a fresh stack of books! This month, I’m switching things up with a mix of mystery, thriller, romance, and contemporary fiction. I have four books on my September reading list, and I’m excited to see which one ends up being my favorite.

ON BRINA'S LIST · 01
Luv Alwayz: The Opposite Sex and Relationships
First up is Luv Alwayz: The Opposite Sex and Relationships by Shonell Bacon and J. Daniels. This story is a classic that I originally read years ago, and I recently read it again over the Summer. Rereading this classic brings back a sense of nostalgia and excitement. Sometimes you just need a good love story on your reading list.

Jackal
Next is Jackal by Erin E. Adams. This one immediately caught my attention because it combines mystery and thriller elements with a story that promises plenty of tension. I’m always here for a book that keeps me guessing, and Jackal feels like the perfect way to kick off my September reading. I’m going in knowing as little as possible and hoping for plenty of twists!

Murder on the Orient Express
Of course, I had to include another classic! Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie is one of those books that has been on my reading radar for far too long. A mysterious murder, a train full of suspects, and Hercule Poirot trying to piece everything together? Count me in. I’m especially excited to finally experience this famous mystery for myself and see if I can figure out the culprit before Poirot does.

What It’s Like in Words
Last but certainly not least is What It’s Like in Words by Eliza Moss. I’m looking forward to ending the month with something a little different. The title alone makes me curious about the emotions and experiences explored throughout the book. I have a feeling this may be one of those reads that leaves me thinking about certain passages long after I’ve finished it.
What’s on Your September TBR?
Four books, four completely different reading experiences—and I’m ready for all of them! From suspense and romance to classic mystery and a more reflective read, September is shaping up to be a fun reading month.
