What books do you read when you are dreaming of fall? What movies do you like to watch?

I know I've mentioned it before, but
Autumn: From the Heart of the Home by Susan Branch
is my absolute GO TO for getting me in the fall mood!

https://www.amazon.com/Autumn-Heart-Home-Susan-Branch/dp/0316088668

I'm trying to add to my collection however. Spotted this possibility - has anyone read it?

For the Love of Pumpkins: A Visual Guide to Fall Decorating with Pumpkins and Ornamentals
https://www.amazon.com/Love-Pumpkins-Visual-Decorating-Ornamentals/dp/0979534208

or perhaps this one?
Thimbleberries Autumn Accents

https://www.amazon.com/Thimbleberri...rd_wg=0knGZ&psc=1&refRID=9XNS497T981NYC5ASV0T

As far as novels go, I was thinking either The Secret Garden or The Long Winter (Little House Book) might be good ones to cozy up with this fall! Maybe Jane Eyre. :)

What do you like to watch? You've Got Mail is a fall classic, of course! What else? I'm not necessarily ready for Halloween type movies yet...trying to think of ones that will ease me into the season!

Thanks for this Aunt Jamelle. I love this. I have a few of Susan Branch books. Thanks to you I see she has a lot more. I will be purchasing these. I love her books.

Hallmark has a lot of fall movies they are coming out with.

I have a bunch of fall Children's picture books that I love to bring out and use for decorating around the house. Some books are by Wende Devlin - Cranberry Halloween and Cranberry Thanksgiving. https://www.amazon.com/Cranberry-Halloween-Cranberryport-Wende-Devlin/dp/1930900694

I have Elsa Beskow's books - Woody, Hazel and Pip, Christopher's Harvest Time, and Around the Year. https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=dp_byl...s&field-author=Elsa+Beskow&sort=relevancerank

I also put out Tasha Tudor's books - Around the Year, and Pumpkin Moonshine.

There are a few others but I can't remember the authors off the top of my head right now. I loved reading them to the children when they were younger.

Thanks, Mary! I have Cranberry Autumn on request from the library right now!

I've gone down a rabbit hole looking at all these books! :)
