It's finally October πŸ¦‡ I feel like the rest of the year I'm just waiting for it to be fall again- objectively the best season of the year.. obviously. I've spun the wheel and landed on some really fun prompts this month so let's get right into it!

The Prompts

Spin #1



🍁 For this one think about wallpaper that has a print and it just repeats. That was the Idea behind this one but I'll also accept mirror images or a border with a repeating image. I'm sure there are other styles of covers that will fit this as well but try to find one that fits the original idea if possible!

Spin #2



🍁 the book doesn't have to have been published before you were born although that would certainly guarantee it fits the prompt- it just needs to be set before the year of your birth. It can be 1 year before you were born or it can be hundreds. possibilities are endless for this one.

Spin #3



🍁 "guide" books are all the rage these days. I have a TON of books on my shelf and TBR that fit this prompt. I'd be shocked if there isn't one out there to fit everyone's taste! If you do need a recommendation I'd be happy to help.

Spin #4



🍁 And one of the beloved generator prompts has popped up again! I just find using the various generators such a fun way to pick books!

Ok everyone- get your spooky reading on (if you're into that 😁) and build those TBR's. I know it's late in the year now but don't give up that momentum you started the year with. Also, check out the new Quarterly Book Bingo Board & The Monster Hunt!

The only book I finished from this TBR was [book:Forty Autumns: A Family's Story of Courage and Survival on Both Sides of the Berlin Wall
, which was a fantastic book to listen to. Honestly, with all of my schoolwork, I'm feeling a bit burnt out on even listening to books right now. With that being said, I do have a paperback that I am very excited to read once the semester is over.
