 I feel like a pumpkin in this sweater. Like it's big, it's orange, it's just kind of an orange comfy knit blob and I love it. I feel like a pumpkin, I felt like it was perfect for fall and therefore perfect for this video. Library and today I'm going to be doing the finally fall book tag. I am really excited. I love fall as I'm sure many of us do but yeah so I thought I'd do the finally fall book tag to kind of keep us going. Last week I did do some my fall TBR spreading all the books that I want to read this fall so feel free to check that out. That will also be in the description but now let's get into the tag. I've gotten the questions on my phone here so if I'm looking down it's because I'm looking at the questions here. So in fall the air is crisp and clear, name a book with a vivid setting and I'm going to go with a book I just finished and the setting was very very vivid and that would be Ace of Spades. Now this is a dark academia that I literally just finished a day or so ago and it's it's insane. The atmosphere is very vivid because it takes place at this very prestigious prep school and the school itself is just eerie because the outside looks old but the inside is like modern but still like dark academia so like big wide dark oak double doors marvel this and old that and huge like the school was vivid and the other places that we go to sometimes if we go to a character's house or a neighborhood you you know exactly where you are and you can picture it but the school itself just oh my word and this happens within the first couple weeks of school so it is very much fall time school is starting so it just oh it was the perfect atmosphere vivid setting. Second question is nature is beautiful very true but also dying that's so sad name a book that is beautifully written but also deals with a heavy topic like loss or grief grief so for this one I've chosen a book that isn't super fall it isn't very autumn but I did read it it was the last summer book that I read before I started diving into fall raids and that's Beach Read by Emily Henry this is a beautifully written book I was laughing through it I had so much fun but one of the main characters her father has just passed away and through that she has learned that her father had a whole other life with a whole other woman and she had no idea so she actually ends up going to his cabin up in Michigan Michigan and she meets her neighbor and they are both writers and they decide to challenge each other to read or to write books in each other's genre so she is dealing with living in the cottage in the house that her dad lived in with his mistress as she's grieving his loss while also trying to write a bestselling book before her neighbor can beautiful book so incredibly wonderful but yeah not like I said not super fall but like it's almost question number three fall is back to school season share a nonfiction book that taught you something new I don't read nonfiction I don't remember when the last time I read a nonfiction book is so I cannot tell you I don't know I didn't learn anything from something I didn't read so I'll just move on to question number four now shall we number four in order to keep warm it's good to spend time with people that we love name a fictional family household friend group that you would like to be a part of so this is a very interesting answer because the friend group I have chosen is not one that I think I could act well it's definitely a group I would love to hang out and be a part of but I don't know how they would react to me because I am boring but I'm gonna go with the the little found family from we hunt the flame by half suffice all we have our main character who's a huntress who secretly goes out into this dangerous wood z area and hunts in order to keep her village alive I would love to hang out with her her best friend Yasmin and her little sister Lana but the real found so she her best friend and her are like sisters but she through the course of the book ends up banding together with the prince of death who is just the prince who is also in the shashen and then the general of the army of the country that they live in and a couple other people who are all bad asses and they are so fun to listen to amazing found family but since they're all like these warrior bad asses I don't think I would actually fit in but I think it would be really fun to hang out with them a little bit maybe not when they're trying to defeat any evil thing and bring magic back but you know just in general but honestly I think I'd fit in more with like Yasmin her best friend and Lana her little sister so that's that's my answer though all right what are we on question number five yeah the colorful leaves are piling up on the ground it shows a pile of fall colored spines okay let's grab some books okay here are a few I definitely have more on my shelf that could go into the stack but I didn't want it to get too big um these are just kind of like orangey based a little bit of red and yellow so I'm using uh with the fire and high by Elizabeth Acevedo star daughter by Shveta Fakrad Verity by Joelle Charbonneau and the night circus by Erin Morgenstern just to kind of get the red the orange a little bit of yellow a little bit of orange and yellow so this I'd say it's a pretty full stack baby now I gotta set them down some way that's fun I always love those ones number six fall is the perfect time for some stories telling by the fireside share a book where someone is telling a story so for this one I've chosen I didn't I was looking through my shelves and I don't have too many or that's the case um but I had a couple but I felt like the best one to go with was you had me at Ola by Alexis Thadia and I went with this one because while there isn't like a character telling a story per se these two are telenovela slash soap opera stars and throughout the story you get to read the scenes that they're doing as they're doing them and so it kind of feels like they're telling a whole other story they're telling the story of the tv show as well as the like actual story of the characters or the actors so I went with this one um because I had a different kind of storytelling so I thought that would be really fun number seven the nights are getting darker share a dark creepy read so again I'm going to go with one that I recently read because I've been recently reading a lot especially like fall theme thriller and one of my favorites so far still is house apollo by crystal stutherland this is not too long it was the first book I read for my reading extravaganza if you don't know what I'm talking about I will have all of the videos that have come out for it down below so that you can see what I'm talking about um and this was super creepy super atmospheric not too long I read it so quickly and I loved it it gets it gets pretty dark but not too much in a way it gets decently dark but it like very gradually puts you into the darkness so it's not like a uh like a two to a hundred kind of thing you're you're gradually getting there so you're like adjusting a little bit so then by the time it gets really dark you didn't quite notice how dark it got yeah I enjoyed it I definitely recommend this to anyone who's looking for a good spooky read the days are getting colder name a short heartwarming read that could warm up somebody's cold rainy day this one I believe I mentioned last year and I mentioned every year during fall season and so do many other people but that's because it's true it works really well not as the tea dragon society books by katie o'neill there are three of them out I have all three and I've read all three very short so heartwarming definitely brightens up anybody and everybody's day I made everyone in my family read this even though like no one else in my family really sits down and reads but I definitely made them read this and they they agreed it was wonderful and heartwarming because it's the idea that you have these dragons where if you harvest the leaves off of like their heads and their antlers you can make delicious tea with it and then with the tea you actually get little glimpses of like their memories and their emotions and it's just so cute and heartwarming and the art is amazing and each one of the three books is a different season so this is spring there is summer and fall and the full one is definitely beautiful colors fall aesthetic highly recommend all three you can read them very quickly and just cuddle up with them number nine fall returns every year thank goodness name an old favorite that you'd like to return to soon so an old favorite of mine is the school for good and evil by sonan chainani and I read this way back in middle school and I didn't realize it was a series back then I think maybe because it had recently come out so there weren't more books in the series and I did not know what good reads was at the time I know I did so much reading in middle school and I feel like if I knew what good reads was I would actually be able to remember what I read in middle school anyway um but I believe the scaredy cat readathon is using this as their group book for their readathon and I now know that it's a series and I would love to keep reading this series especially since a netflix adaptation is coming I'm so excited for that so I desperately need to reread this book so I can finish the series so I can watch the netflix adaptation and october is the perfect time to do it because this is all about stories and fairy tales and like it's not quite retelling because it's the idea that there is this town and every year two kids are taken from this town and it is believed that these kids turn into fairy tales and how that happens is one kid goes to school for good one kid goes to school for evil and then they become princes and princesses or evil people the villains in the story based off of their schooling and then their stories get written down and those get distributed to the children in the original town now this book follows two characters and one believes that she is perfect she is beautiful she is going to be taken to be the princess and she is going to be saved by her prince and have a happily ever after while the other one is just kind of like I'm just trying to live through life here life is not easy I I'm just trying to make it through so everyone believes that she's very dark and gloomy it would be the perfect villain except that they actually go to the schools that they don't think they fit in so the dark and gloomy person goes to her name is Agatha oh Agatha and Sophie so Agatha the dark and gloomy ends up going to school for good while Sophie who believes she's going to be a princess ends up getting into the school for evil and they're very confused and they're like what the heck why and that is the story if you want to know you're gonna have to read it and find out so definitely an old favorite that I severely need to revisit very soon definitely in the month of October but it's hard it'll be interesting though because I'm reading so many other things but I will definitely make time for this and it's it's a middle grade so it'll read a little quicker and I believe the font is pretty big in here yeah it's not so bad so definitely pick this up if you haven't already number 10 fall is the perfect time for cozy reading nights share your favorite cozy reading accessories so I am like any other reader I have my reading chair I like to be wearing something comfy sometimes I like to drink something hot like tea or hot chocolate although I don't always do that because I'm just so paranoid of spilling on my books but recently this year I acquired something that I've been setting on my reading chair that I've been loving and that is my cute little pumpkin pillow I have been just curling up with this in a book almost every night and it makes me happy it's soupy super comfy very like fall kind of spooky but not too spooky so this is definitely my new favorite accessory for my reading chair and then we are on to the last question question number 11 and that is spread the autumn appreciation and tags some people so I am obviously just going to be like if anyone wants to do this tag they are definitely welcome to I am tagging you officially feel free to just do a tag and be like Laura it's a little
