I’m not the type of reader to instantly gravitate towards the thriller section. I do not like horror movies, nor do I like any sort of thriller movie. I will not volunteer to go see a horror movie or watch one on TV.

However, I am the type to see a rom-com. There’s a rom-com in theaters? I’m the first to go see it.

That is the same with books. I am instantly pulled towards the romance book section in the bookstore, and these fall books are no exception. While these aren’t all romance, they are books that are preferred by those who don’t normally like thrillers — especially when in the fall, everyone loves a good spooky read.

Here are 11 books to read in the fall if you don’t like thrillers or spooky season.
