6 mixes for this book

Because no reliable plot, setting, or genre details are available for Thomas Zuniga’s *Running to*, this playlist avoids assigning the book an invented story or emotional arc. The Autumn Leaves edition uses reflective, rain-softened instrumental textures—acoustic guitar, piano, and restrained ambient music—as a seasonally warm but unobtrusive listening backdrop.
