Introducing our selection of the best books to chat about with your book clubs – or just devour on your own – this autumn.

Our twelve new Waterstones Book Club titles are sure to cheer you up as the nights set in.

I must admit that I’m very happy about my first novel being chosen among these 12 books. If books could talk (do they?), they would say, ”C’mon, gimme a chance” – because most of the books never get one.  There are so many books published every day that only small part of them ever get the attention they deserve. Now my first novel really has got the chance. I’m so grateful and so is my book. The rest is up to itself. If it’s worth it, it’ll make it.
