When I saw this book at the thrift store, it jumped out to me. Even though it is definitely a fall themed book, I really wanted to read it now. It's the third book in a series, and while you can read it as a standalone, I think this one would be more enjoyable if you've read the first two books. I plan to go back and read them because I really enjoyed this one. I will also have to see what other books the author has.
