Top Ten Tuesday: Top Ten Book Covers that Give off Fall Vibes & Tell Me Something Tuesday: If You Could Live in A Different Country for A Year, Which Country Would You Choose?

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. 

Happy Tuesday! It is the last day of September. Hope you're having a great week so far. Today, we are talking about book covers that give off fall vibes. Few of these covers will likely give fall vibes as we traditionally think of them, but I hope that as I share why they made my list, it all makes sense. 

Top Ten Book Covers that Give off Fall Vibes 

The Nantucket Restaurant by Pamela Kelley makes you think more about beach weather than fall, and it seems like the colors are supposed to be of a sunny summer day. However, when I glanced at this cover, I felt like this image captures the end of the season when people must head back to fall schedules. 

Mail Order Bride: The Journey by Leah Wyett made the list because its golden colors remind me of the two sisters leaving their old lives behind for a new life out west, just like perennials die off in the cooler weather and grow again in the spring. 

Take My Hand by Dolen Perkins-Valdez is probably the closest thing to a fall cover that I added to the list because of the colors on it. I still have this book here and want to read it. 

This Close to Okay by Leesa Cross-Smith is set in October, and the cover is made up of many fall colors.

Doesn't a spooky cover make you think of fall? Whispers by J. Herman Kleiger definitely gives that vibe. 

California Golden by Melanie Benjamin is set during the summer, but its colors scream fall to me. 

How to Sell A Haunted House by Grady Hendrix is another spooky cover that makes you think of fall and all the haunted happenings that you might come across.  

Look at these awesome fall colors on the cover of Bandit Heaven by Tom Clavin. 

What says Halloween and fall better than ghosts? That's why I added The Ghost and the Haunted Portrait by Cleo Coyle to the list. 

   

Anything by Jaime Jo Wright is bound to give off fall vibes, like her latest, The Bell Tolls at Traeger Hall. Gothic fiction at its finest right here. 

Tell Me Something Tuesday (TMST) is hosted by Jen Twimom at That's What I'm Talking About. TMST is a weekly discussion post where bloggers discuss a wide range of topics from books and blogging to life in general. Participation is optional, and you leave your comments in the weekly post if you are participating. Check it out if you would like to join.

Isn't this week's topic a neat one? I'm a bit of a whimp when it comes to international travel. I've only been to Bermuda and Canada, and Canada is so close by that it's not exactly in the same league as getting on a plane and flying over the mysterious Bermuda Triangle. I'm very happy living in the United States, and have never considered living elsewhere. 

If I were taking an extended vacation, my top three choices would be Italy, France, and Greece. We were planning a trip to Greece at the beginning of 2020. The pandemic had other plans. 

How about you? Where would you like to live for a year?
