My one-eyed rapscallion pirate cat, Tuna, deciding what to read on the first day of her birthday month (we estimate, aren't totally sure...)

"Then silence, and stillness, and night were the universe." The Pit and the Pendulum was always my favorite Poe tale - what about you all? #Halloween #edgarallanpoe

It might be a little cheesy, but I will NEVER stop buying these books wherever I go! October is the best month, and nothing will change my mind #SpookySZN

Years ago, I got to interview New Orleans chef Paul Prudhomme - he may have brought the flavors of the Vieux Carré to presidents and a king, but his deepest satisfaction came from the food itself. He was humble, interesting and self-made rb.gy/vr9s0

E. Shaver Booksellers in downtown Savannah has been my favorite bookstore for over a decade - what are your favorite bookstores? (It doesn't hurt they have several resident cats...) eshaverbooks.com

“We rise again in the grass. In the flowers. In songs.” @DoerrTorresal, this book was a wonder to read - the details are mind-blowing and brought the time and place to life for me. Inspired me to include more history in my own work #AllTheLightWeCannotSee

“Tell about the South. What's it like there. What do they do there. Why do they live there. Why do they live at all.” Absalom, Absalom! is a feat to get through with its dense stream-of-conscious pages, but an incredible saga that stays with you. #faulkner

Murder at the Vicarage is my favorite #AgathaChristie #MissMarple - through all the ghoulishness there remains a warmth, wit and charm. To quote the dame herself: “The best time for planning a book is while you're doing the dishes. ”

Before she passed, I had the opportunity to interview novelist Susan Vreeland. Standing on Pont Neuf 40+ years ago, she promised to “keep a Gothic cathedral alive in [her] heart.” I saw that in her clearly - if you love art, you will too. The interview: shorturl.at/IRU29

This book was a gift from a friend who met @JeanneBlasberg at a signing and thought I'd appreciate it - she was right. The multigenerational story feels both sweeping and intimate at the same time, which is difficult to do... I would love to meet Jeanne in person someday #Eden

Cassandra Mortmain was my Holden Caulfield as a teenage girl - eager, restless, full of ideas and frustrations and a desperation to "capture" those feelings in words but never feeling like it was enough. It may be time to read this one again #ICapturetheCastle #DodieSmith

"124 was spiteful. Full of a baby's venom." This was my mother's copy of #Beloved, old enough that the author list stops at Morrison's early '80s work. I take it off the shelf at least once a week and look through it. This story haunts me. It's everything.

Faulkner on his favorite novel: "The one that failed the most tragically and the most splendidly. That was The Sound and the Fury – the one that I worked at the longest, the hardest, that was to me the most passionate and moving idea, and made the most splendid failure" #faulkner

The Compson family is so universal, struggling with traits we all do - pride, rebelliousness, anguish. What a story. Never read anything that captures the ambiance of a paradise lost this well. #faulkner
