DAR Reading Recommendations

by Mason Black

If you’ve spent time on the second floor of One Press Place, you’ve likely noticed the whiteboard at Mason Black’s desk in Alumni Relations. Every week, he asks thought-provoking questions to DAR colleagues passing through the building. Earlier this year, Mason asked his fellow staff members to recommend a book and the response was nothing short of overwhelming! With the fall season in full swing, we wanted to share the top recommendations for you to curl up and read as the weather cools down:  

  • “Fourth Wing” by Rebecca Yarros 
  • “Iron Flame” by Rebecca Yarros 
  • “We Were the Lucky Ones” by Georgia Hunter 
  • “Flicker in the Dark” by Stacy Willingham – Written by a UGA grad! 
  • “All the Light We Cannot See” by Anthony Doerr 
  • “Millionaire Next Door” by Thomas J. Stanley 
  • “The Housemaid” by Freida McFadden  
  • “First Lie Wins” by Ashley Elston 
  • “The Nightingale” by Kristin Hannah 
  • “The Alchemist” by Paulo Coelho 
  • “Verity” by Colleen Hoover  
  • “A Thousand Splendid Suns” by Khaled Hosseini  
  • “Hour of the Witch” by Chris Bohjalian 

If you decide to dive into one of these reads, don’t hesitate to swing by Mason’s desk for a quick chat or share your thoughts with a colleague. Happy reading!
