Finally Fall #booktag

I have a fun book post to share with you all. The fabulous Nicki at Secret Library Book Blog tagged me and while I don’t take part in many of these, this one did look fun. Originally started by Kelsey at there’s something about KM.

It is yet another chance to choose some different books from my shelves that have not been used in other tags 🙂

So without further fuss and ado let me show you my #FinallyFall books…

IN FALL, THE AIR IS CRISP AND CLEAR: NAME A BOOK WITH A VIVID SETTING.

While this is not a cover that screams autumn, it is always nice to be reminded of warmer days when it is cold, wet and horrible outside and this is a fabulous book that has wonderful descriptions of settings, – The Path to the Sea by Liz Fenwick

NATURE IS BEAUTIFUL… BUT ALSO DYING: NAME A BOOK THAT IS BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN, BUT ALSO DEALS WITH A HEAVY TOPIC LIKE LOSS OR GRIEF.

I read this book a few years ago and it was such a poignant read that by the end of had me in tears – Suite Francais by Irene Nemivovsky

FALL IS BACK TO SCHOOL SEASON: SHARE A NON-FICTION BOOK THAT TAUGHT YOU SOMETHING NEW.

This is another book that I read a few years ago, it is full of facts, info and pictures fabulous reading. – Jack the Ripper – the Facts by Paul Blegg

IN ORDER TO KEEP WARM, IT’S GOOD TO SPEND SOME TIME WITH THE PEOPLE WE LOVE: NAME A FICTIONAL FAMILY/HOUSEHOLD/FRIEND-GROUP THAT YOU’D LIKE TO BE A PART OF.

Growing up I loved Enid Blyton’s Famous Five, I never got on with The Secret Seven! I always wanted to ge like George (Georgina) they had the most fabulous adventures.

THE COLOURFUL LEAVES ARE PILING UP ON THE GROUND: SHOW US A PILE OF FALL-COLORED SPINES!

FALL IS THE PERFECT TIME FOR SOME STORYTELLING BY THE FIRESIDE: SHARE A BOOK WHEREIN SOMEBODY IS TELLING A STORY.

I have had this book for 30 odd years and loved reading it, a story of stories – Arabian Nights – The Book of a Thousand Nights and a Night.

THE NIGHTS ARE GETTING DARKER: SHARE A DARK, CREEPY READ.

I read this one in January and it was chilling and dark – The Tattoo Thief by Alison Belsham

THE DAYS ARE GETTING COLDER: NAME A SHORT, HEARTWARMING READ THAT COULD WARM UP SOMEBODY’S COLD AND RAINY DAY.

This is just a brilliant book, I originally read it in instalments as it was released through last year and when it was then released as a complete book I just had to get it _ The Little Cafe at the End of the Pier by Helen Rolfe.

FALL RETURNS EVERY YEAR: NAME AN OLD FAVORITE THAT YOU’D LIKE TO RETURN TO SOON.

This was another favourite from my childhood and I also watched the TV series and loved it, I would love to reread it and see if I can still feel the magic and mystery I felt when I read it as a child – Tom’s Midnight Garden by Philippa Pearce.

FALL IS THE PERFECT TIME FOR COZY READING NIGHTS: SHARE YOUR FAVORITE COZY READING “ACCESSORIES”!

OMG I love wildy coloured fluffy socks and fluffy PJ’s so much and they are perfect for sitting in front of my open fire in while I’m reading! 😍😂

SPREAD THE AUTUMN APPRECIATION AND TAG SOME PEOPLE!

Books for Christmas #readingchallenge #winterreading #booktag @littlejojackson

So a couple of weeks ago I saw a fellow Blogger saying how much they enjoyed the #20booksofsummer Reading Challenge. She decided that it would be great to have one that went through the winter months as well. I know some Bloggers take part in Blogtober and Blogmas and so this could run in conjunction with them as well.

If you took part in the Books for Summer Challenge, then you will see it is the same format. It runs from tomorrow 1st October until the 31st December. The books Do Not have to be Christmas books, but are books that you may recommend for Christmas gifts or ones that seem to be falling down the TBR. Again 10, 15 or 20 books, its up to you.

Check out Jo’s Blog at Tea & Cake For The Soul and tag her in your post if you decide to take part.

My Book picks for the challenge are…

Now you may be thinking that these are not exactly Christmassy books, but they are books that have more of of autumnal feel. So, as I am already reading some more festive feeling reads as part of blog tours ,I am going to include a couple of them as well 🙂

And for a few more from my TBR that are more festive…

So there we have it 15 books to read in 3months 🙂

I decided to choose 15 as I do have Blog Tour reads as well. 15 just seems do-able and also gives a chance to catch up with previous festive as well as TBR reads that I have neglected.

Don’t forget to tag Jo in your introduction and summing up posts as she will share your posts.

If you are joining in with this Reading Challenge or others then I wish you Happy Reading. If you are not joining in Happy Reading as well 🙂 xx

That’s all from me, and I thank you for reading my post, a like or share is always appreciated xx
