So, weโre back with another Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl. This weekโs prompt is: Book Covers with Fall Colours/Vibes (or spring if you live in the southern hemisphere)
Although I live in the tropics, I have lived in places where there were multiple seasons and unsurprisingly, autumn was my favourite! ๐ I’ve always preferred cold weather to warm weather because I love bundling up under my doona and fluffy throws, and covering myself in oversized cardis/jumpers. At least when it’s cold you can wear multiple layers — when it’s hot you can’t exactly go around in the nude ๐ BUT I DIGRESS!!! ๐คฃ
When I think of autumn I think red, yellow, orange, and black, falling leaves, spooky reads thanks to Halloween, but also cosy romances too! So today’s is going to be a mix of all those, and I realised I do have more spooky reads on my TBR than I expected. Look at me branching out of my comfort zone! ๐
Woven in Moonlight
House of Earth and Blood
The Vampire Knitting Club
Children
Wild at Heart
Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell
The Paper Magician
Small Spaces
Pax
The Year of the Witching
Are you a seasonal reader? What makes you classify a book as an “autumn/fall” read?

Great list, Dini! I really want to give Small Spaces a try and The Vampire Knitting Club sounds so cute. I haven’t read any Sarah J. Maas, but I’ve heard so many good things about her new book that I do wonder if I should give it a try.

Thanks Jess! I can’t wait to give all these books a try although I’m probs most intimidated by Small Spaces even knowing it’s MG ๐ I’m too much of a scaredy! But I hope you also enjoy them if you give them a try!

Right? Foxes also make me think of autumn. Maybe it’s their colouring but this cover with the leaves all around also made me think of fall ๐

I love that you were able to incorporate all the different genres this week. I adore that Small Spaces coverโso deliciously creepy and appropriate for Halloween. But then, Wild at Heart looks so cozy! You’ve run the gamut on fall of fall books.

I don’t think there really is just the one cover. My cover at least is not spectacular, I prefer the one you showed, but I once got my book for 2 or 3 euros, so I cannot complain too much ๐
