On Arts Today, Omaha readers look forward to the warm, thoughtful guidance of Carl Erickson from The Bookworm Bookstore. His recommendations have become a reliable compass for book lovers searching for their next great read, especially as the seasons change and new titles arrive on the shelves.

For this visit, Erickson brought a curated selection of books that match the rhythm of the season, choosing stories that invite reflection, comfort, and a touch of discovery. His picks span fiction and nonfiction, offering something for every kind of reader, whether they want a quiet literary escape or a gripping narrative to carry them through colder evenings.

Erickson’s seasonal recommendations highlight the joy of slowing down with a good book, exploring new authors, and reconnecting with the simple pleasure of reading. As always, each title he selects opens a door into a world shaped by imagination, insight, or a voice worth hearing.
