Okay, Reader, HELLO OCTOBER. 🍂

The month of cozy reading nights, unnecessarily large cups of coffee, pumpkins everywhere, fantasy books that somehow feel better when it's chilly outside...

And obviously, fall Bookstagram content.

October is basically made for book lovers.

So I thought we'd kick off the month with some fall reading inspiration AND a little freebie from me to you.

📸 First... Let's Fix Your Fall Bookstagram

If you've been staring at your books thinking...

Okay, they're cute... but what am I supposed to POST?

I've got you. 😂

I put together 45 Fall Bookstagram Ideas to help you create cozy, spooky, bookish content all season long.

Think cozy reading photos, spooky season content, fall TBRs, books + coffee, moody fantasy vibes, and plenty of ideas you can make your own.

🍁 But What Are We READING This Fall?

Because you need something to actually put in those Bookstagram photos...

This is the time of year when I want my fantasy romance to feel a little darker, moodier, witchier, or like I should be reading it underneath a blanket while there's a thunderstorm outside.

A few books that fit the fall mood:

🖤 One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig​
Dark, gothic, atmospheric fantasy with a unique magic system. This one practically screams October. [Full Review Here]​

🍂 The Wolf King by Lauren Palphreyman​
Wolves, fantasy, romance, and darker vibes? Very fall. [Full Review Here]​

🌙 Phantasma by Kaylie Smith​
A deadly competition inside a haunted mansion with romance mixed in. Basically spooky-season reading material.

✨ The Serpent and the Wings of Night by Carissa Broadbent​
Vampires, deadly trials, enemies-to-lovers tension... do I really need to explain this one? [Full Review Here]​

🔥 Servant of Earth by Sarah Hawley​
Dangerous trials, fae politics, forbidden romance, and a slightly darker fantasy world that fits perfectly with fall reading. [Full Review Here]​

Consider this your permission to build an unnecessarily ambitious October TBR. 😅

🎁 And I Made You a Little Something...

Because we're officially entering peak cozy-reading season, I wanted to give my email book besties a small October freebie.

Nothing complicated.

Just a little bookish treat from me to you to celebrate the start of the month. 🍁

☕ Now We're Ready for October

Grab the blanket.

Make the ridiculously seasonal coffee.

Pick a fantasy romance that will emotionally destroy you.

And let's have ourselves a very bookish October.

I've got plenty of fall, fantasy, and romantasy content coming your way this month, so keep an eye on your inbox.
