Finally Fall Book Tag | 2022 The Book Finch 2022-10-28 | So, it appears I have not done fall and autumn related tags all that much,aside from the Fall Favorites -tag I did in 2017...That was a long time ago!This tag has been around for well over four years and the original video is not available anymore.I will however link to Angela's (Literature Science Alliance) video, where I got the initial inspiration to do the Finally Fall Book Tag. Angelas version:youtube.com/watch?v=X7DpQHRBN2wIf you want to see me in a cringe Halloween costume, you can watch the 2017 video here:youtu.be/1UG6RmTTi9gPrompts:1. In fall, the air is crisp and clear: name a book with a vivid setting2. Nature is beautiful, but also dying: name a book that is beautifully written, but also deals with a heavy topic like loss or grief.3. Fall is back to school season: share a non-fiction book that taught you something new.4. In order to keep warm, it’s good to spend some time with the people we love: name a fictional family/household/friend-group that you’d like to be a part of.5. The colorful leaves are piling up on the ground: show us a pile of fall-colored spines!6. Fall is the perfect time for some storytelling by the fireside: share a book wherein somebody is telling a story.7. The nights are getting darker: share a dark, creepy read.8. The days are getting colder: name a short, heartwarming read that could warm up somebody’s cold and rainy day.9. Fall returns every year: name an old favorite that you’d like to return to soon.BOOKS MENTIONED:Siren Queen by Nghi VoWitch Hat Atelier -series by Kamome ShirahamaDelicious in Dungeon -series by Ryoko KuiThe Midnight Bargain by C.L PolkBolero by Wyatt Kennedy, Luana VecchioDisfigured: On Fairy Tales, Disability, and Making Space by Amanda LeducMedical Bondage: Race, Gender, and the Originsa of American Gynecology by Deirdre Cooper OwensBooks of the Raksura -series by Martha WellsThe Magic Fish by Trung Le NguyenIn the Dream House by Carmen Maria MachadoDon't Go Without Me by Rosemary Valero-O'ConnellKuolleiden Valssi by Marko HautalaA Man and His Cat (volume 1) by Umi SakuraiA Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky ChambersAmberlough by Lara Elena DonnellyThe Fifth Season by N.K JemisinThe Psychology of Time Travel by Kate Mascarenhas◾◾ Social Media Links: ◾◾Twittertwitter.com/TheBookFinch?lang=enGoodreadsgoodreads.com/TheBookFinchInstagraminstagram.com/finchkin◾◾ You can buy my art prints at: ◾◾inprnt.com/gallery/thebookfinch◾◾ Consider trying out Scribd through my referral link: ◾◾scribd.com/g/7qzkmkYou get a two month free trial and I get one extra month for free.End card art by: twitter.com/eyes_laali
