What are some of your favorite autumnal books? 🍂
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Happy first weekend of autumn 🍁 Who else is as thrilled as I am that the best season has officially arrived? 🤭
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I spent the day baking pumpkin bread with my sister, reading The Brothers Hawthorne while sipping my (multiple) cups of coffee, and watching the blustery rainy weather 🎃
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To answer my own question, here are a few of my top cozy, autumn book recs:
• The Nature of Witches by Rachel Griffin
• All Souls by Deborah Harkness
• Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree
• Payback’s a Witch by Lana Harper
• Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson
• Spells for Lost Things by Jenna Evans Welch
• The Bone Houses by Emily Lloyd-Jones
• The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna
• The Wicked Deep by Shea Ernshaw
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you read any of these? 📖

Do you plan your reads around the seasons? 🍁
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I don't pick up many spring or summer books (since I dislike those seasons), but I typically find myself reading more cozy or witchy novels during autumn! 🍂 Doing this helps me to fully embrace my favorite time of the year 🙌🏼
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It'll come as no surprise to you that, thanks to @steepedinlore, I've also been sipping on many mugs of tea while I dive into my autumnal reads 🫖 Make sure you use my code ESPRESSO10 to get a discount on your seasonal tea purchase! 🤎

🔍 FUN FACT ABOUT THIS PHOTO: My sweet and smooshy calico cat, Nona, decided that scarf was her snuggle spot and curled right up—she makes the cutest prop, doesn’t she? 🥹

Hi friends--what have I missed? 🤎
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
All I'm hearing on repeat in my head is Jacob Black's ridiculous, "Where the hell have you been, loca?" 😆 I missed you all SO MUCH this past month and a half 😭
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So to answer the werewolf's question:
🫶🏼 I got to spend a week with one of my best buddies in Ohio and we made friendship blankets, got matching Gilmore Girls tattoos, went to high tea, watched a ton of Seinfeld, avoided a tornado, and shopped til we dropped (it was the best time)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📖 @chronicacademia and I have been buddy-reading like our lives depend on it for quite some time, but actually meeting in person and being able to geek out over books together face-to-face was the absolute best
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🥀 The chance to meet one of my favorite authors during the same trip? Couldn't pass that up! I attended the Foxglove book tour in Columbus for @authoradalyngrace and it was such a surreal experience
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🪴 I've begun to work on some home projects--finally turning my cozy cottage into exactly that--and I'm loving every second of it! Very thankful for some incredible partnerships that will be coming to this page real soon
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🥰 I’ve spent so much quality time with my family, including celebrating my sister’s birthday with her making such precious memories. So grateful for my incredible tribe who have held me up and brought so much comfort lately.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💔 The life update that I posted on my stories on Sept 1 explained the hardest part of why I disappeared for so long. I know that there are great plans for my future even as I stumble my way through the now (if you missed it and are confused, feel free to DM me)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now, tell me something that you're looking forward to this autumn 🍂
