Hey bookworm friends. Now that the weather is cooling down and I’m reacquainting myself with my sweaters, I’m ready for some seasonal reads! Luckily, today’s TTTopic is all about book covers that give fall vibes and I’ve found a mix of them. There are some romances, cozy fantasies, a mystery or two, a couple more literary-leaning titles, and even a middle grade! The important thing is that they’re all perfect for Crunchy Leaf Season! I’ve only read one and the rest are on my TBR.

I love this mix of books! I have Cat Dragon, If It Makes You Happy, and The Thirteenth Tale on my TBR too and I’m looking forward to checking them out (eventually). I hope to at least check out one of the three this season, lol! I hope you enjoy all of these books whenever you get to them 🙂
yay I’m glad a lot of these also caught your eye, I’m hoping to get to these too and If It Makes You Happy is so outside of my comfort zone but the 90’s vibes are calling my name! Thanks Dini and I hope you enjoy whatever you pick up this season 🖤🍂
i’ve got a couple of these books on my tbr they look so perfect for the season (spookily yours & if it makes you happy). I’m more of a mood reader recently, but I’m hoping to read some fall-themed romances. enjoy these reads <3
Nice, I’ve only recently started getting into more romances and those sound so good. Glad you think so too 🙂 I hope your mood helps you find new favourites this season and thank you 🥰!!
Cat Dragon looks like a lot of fun!
It does look so whimsical and cute! 😀
Cat Dragon looks cute.
Fully agree 🐈🐲!!
The Overstory has been highly reccommended to me, but good lord is it big!
The title of Read Between The Pines made me smile.
Here’s a link to my TTT post

Yes me too, I love a good punny title! Thanks for stopping by my blog 🖤!
Cat Dragon looks absolutely adorable! If It Makes You happy made my list too, it looks so cozy.
Right?! I can’t think of much cuter than a cat dragon! & Yes I’m so glad that romance sounds good to you too 😀
A Dark and Secret Magic! I meant to read that last autumn, and then it didn’t happen. Maybe I’ll get a chance to read this year instead!
Yess that one was such a fun read I hope you can get to it this year 🙂
Very autumnal! I read The Thirteenth Tale in middle school, nice to see it here!
Thank you, Keira! 😊 Oh nice, I remember hearing about it years ago too but I never got to it…hopefully I’ll remedy that soon. 😀
Overstory. One of my favorites. Cat Dragon. I’d like to see one.
Oh amazing, I have been trying to get my hands on Overstory for a while so I’ll try again as it sounds fantastic! & I’d like to see a Cat Dragon too 😀
Crunchy leaf season! I love that. Nice list, Read Between the Pines especially caught my eye.
Haha I’m glad you enjoy that descriptor too 🍂 Yes, I thought at first it was more of a mystery but it’s more of a romance but either way it sounds really fun. I can’t resist a punny title.
Great picks. I feel like the Julie Olivia books are following me around lol. I keep seeing the covers, tempting me to read the books.
Thanks Zezee! Ohh which other Julie Olivia titles have you seen around? I haven’t seen any others but I’m in love with the cover and what do I have to do to get a dress like that😆🖤.
These all look great and I love the Fall covers. So pretty.
Thank you, Yvonne and me too hehe 🙂 !!
This is such an eye catching bunch of books. I have to say my favorites are The Overstory and If It Makes You Happy😁
You have excellent taste, those are some of my absolute fav covers from here too! Thanks, Tammy!
The Thirteenth Tale definitely has the Autumnal, slightly creepy vibes!
I am glad to hear that, I keep seeing it pop up in Autumnal reading lists and it’s been on my radar for a while so I hope to get to it soon!
I actually wore a sweater yesterday! It was because the building I was in had its air conditioning on MAX, LOL. It’s still in the upper 90s here in the Arizona desert. Boo hoo. I miss seasons.
I’ve read THE THIRTEENTH TALE, but that’s it from your list.
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

Ugh, I hate when the air con is on full force, it’s sometimes Way too much! But cute sweaters are always a win! Ooof I don’t know fahrenheit but Arizona weather definitely sounds spicy!
Okay nice! 😄 Thanks for stopping by, Susan 😀
Awesome mix of books! Definitely love the autumn leaves!
These looks so cozy. Cat Dragon has such charming vibes, maybe because I just love kitties. Lovely picks!
Cat Dragon looks adorable and kitties are adorable so I can’t blame you 😜
Ive really been loving seeing all the fall covers lately. The colour schemes and cosy vibes are divine 😍😍 If It Makes You Happy really calls to me cover wise. It has a collie. How could I ever resist that?? Tall of these have such amazing designs though and a lot of them have very interesting titles too.
Its not on my TBR for the month but I have to confess that having seen another post mention that The Thirteenth Tale has an adaptation that I’d somehow never heard about (and been desperate to try something by the author for ages) I’m very tempted to try and squeeze that in this month too.
I love the variety of titles that you’ve included here 🥰🥰 I’m really feeling those fall vibes right now between TTT, Instagram and having a somewhat fitting TBR.
Me too, I really love seeing people’s autumnal and scary season reads lists! 🙂 Yes me too, every time I see that cover,I want her outfit! And are collies your fav dog? I guess that would make sense! They are adorable and your pup is a collie right?
Oh I didn’t know the Thirteenth Tale had an adaptation that’s interesting. Good luck I hope you can squeeze it in then! 🙂
Thanks so much & I’m glad 🥰
I love all kind of book lists but fall always seems to especially call to me somehow 😅
Its a lovely outfit, I hope you can find something like it one day. Yes shes one, all but one of mine have been so I’m biased but I think they’re such adorable dogs. And generally very intelligent too…and prone to quirks 😂
I didnt either until I saw it mentioned in a blog post. It completely passed me by. I still didn’t read it though 🙈 I may have to put it on my 26 for 2026.
Yes, Autumnal colours always catch my eye too!
& I think I’d have to go thrifting for all the separate parts to make a similar outfit but it might be a fun thing to do!
Awww Collies are adorable so I can’t blame you for that haha!
Oh wow yeah, my copy of it is in my parent’s garage weirdly enough so I might have to go get it lol.
Aww I’m sure you’d have a great time doing that. And you could use it as an excuse to check out all of the secondhand books whilst in the stores too 😂
Glad you agree 🥰 ooh you could pick it up when you get the last Wicked Lovely book. I believe I have it as an ebook 🤔 if not I’ll have to order it into the library as I’m 100% reading it this year.
Yeah, now I’m even more tempted to! 🙂 I do love to check out the book section too lol.
Trueee that is a good point, thanks for the suggestion I just might. Ah okay cool I’m hoping you can get to it this year, then :D!
Any excuse to find more books 😂
Thanks 🥰 I hope you get to pick it up soon too 🥰
Hell yeah, Dragonlance!! Love the crunchy leaf title as well!
I really want to get into Dragonlance! & Thank you, Haze 🖤!
Okay, I need to look into Cat Dragon because Dini had it too. I am so curious because it looks amazing. haha!
Ahah yes we did have that one in common and It does look like an adorable read 😀
Cat Dragon looks and sounds adorable! And your covers all look fantastic together, really nailing that autumnal vibe.
I agree Cat Dragon is really calling my name and Thank you, I was really vibing with their covers too hehe 🥰😊
These are great. I love the title ‘Reading Between the Pines’!
Thanks, and I enjoy that punny title as well 😀 !
