For the “Girl Gets Lost in the Woods” recommendation, I would recommend “The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordan” by Stephen King. It’s a psychological horror and it’s pretty small, one of Kings lesser known books. It’s about a 9 year old who gets lost in the woods and it’s really good!

I recommend both the how to hang a witch and killing november series by Adriana Mather. They are ya and a bit cheesy, so definitely won't be for everyone.

For a who done it I recommend The Appeal, it follows 2 law interns as they sort through all the emails of this armature dramatic society to prove the innocence of someone who has confessed to a murder, and the defence barrister on the case has recruited these 2 interns. But it’s cool because you’re reading it through and solving it with them. It’s also a cosy mystery. Also under cosy mystery is the “herrings” series which you can read in any order but follows this author and his agent who don’t really like each other and solve murders together, so funny and cosy.

My recommendation for foggy, atmospheric book is: The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. I read it around November last year and I think it was the perfect timing. A bit slow at times, but great vibes. A mix of mystery, mild academia, some spooky house elements, some "maybe paranormal, maybe not" elements, cute romance bits. A couple of surprising twists. But mostly vibes, imo even tho the mystery elemet kept me hooked 😊 Overall great. Read it in French and loved the writing, don't know about other translations tho.

Death in her hands by Ottessa Moshvegh is incredibly good and i got major fall vibes from it. Seems like the type of speculative weird unreliable narrator type of book you would love Kayla!

Char, Cabin at the End of the World, Mexican Gothic, I am Legend, Devil all the Time, The Broken Girls, The Loosening Skin, Imaginary Friend, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, The Butterfly Garden, The Boy from the Woods, The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter, Watchmaker of Filigree St., Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, The Beauty, If We Were Villains, The Atlas Six, The Midnight Library

For the cozy book category I wanna recommend “Love Sugar Magic: A Dash of Trouble” by Anna Meriano. It’s the first in a middle grade series thats about baking and brujas. The first one takes place during and around the time of the day of the dead so it has some fall vibes. It’s super fun and cute and even has some recipes for baked goods in the back!!
The October Country by Ray Bradbury is an amazing short story collection. Ray Bradbury in general is probably the most autumnal author I can think of, and I’d recommend “something wicked this way comes” by him also. Very spooky 🔥
Yay how exciting! I saw the Insta picture and I haven’t read a single one of these, hopefully I find something new to get into! Also, what a neat idea, to make comments so people can fill in their own recommendations as well. Bless you. 🥺❤️
For a book that feels like Gilmore Girls, "The City Baker's Guide to Country Living" is perfect!!!!
i know everyone and their mother has already read the series so it's kind of redundant now, but for any new readers out there: the raven cycle is the perfect series to start in the fall
Single-handedly extending my TBR by dozens per year.
I highly recommend "Home Before Dark" for everyone who's looking for a spooky thriller and/or haunted houses. You don't know if what is happening is supernatural or not until the very end, and it gets so creepy... I love it!
I think "Once There Were Wolves" by Charlotte McConaghy has got dark fall vibes (but kind of wintry too)...an atmospheric literary murder mystery about a disabled Canadian-Australian wolf biologist (and her agoraphobic twin sister) working in Scotland to reintroduce wolves into the wild, while dealing with hostile locals. It's moody and dark and weird!
I recommend both the how to hang a witch and killing november series by Adriana Mather. They are ya and a bit cheesy, so definitely won't be for everyone. How to hang a witch takes place around Halloween, and has to do with the salem trails. The november series is very dark academia/sorta thriller/mystery. I enjoyed all of them! I'm also reading a lesson in vengeance right now and love it! Perfect for fall! 🖤👻

For (adult?) spooky I recommend anything by Simone St James, she writes haunted stuff so well.
Recommendations for A Girl Lost in the Woods: 1. Rules for Vanishing by Kate Alice Marshall(one of the best books I’ve read this year). 2. Lost in the Never Woods (YA, a Peter Pan retelling) by Aiden Thomas.
The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Gilman. Very short fiction read about a common (for the time) medical practice that made women go insane. Her story actually helped to get the practice made obsolete.
All the Bad Apples by Moira Fowley-Doyle family issues, curse, spooky, mystery, letters, ghosts, magical realism, family ancestors, take place in Ireland, underrated read, that needs more love. Has 3,059 ratings on Goodreads and sits at a 4.02. Plus has a pretty cover of a red hair young girl on the cover. Perfect autumn read!
I have a dark romance retelling book recommendation for “A girl running lost in the woods” - Hunted by Cassandra Faye! This book has The Shinning vibes, it’s short but it works
For a who done it I recommend The Appeal, it follows 2 law interns as they sort through all the emails of this armature dramatic society to prove the innocence of someone who has confessed to a murder, and the defence barrister on the case has recruited these 2 interns. But it’s cool because you’re reading it through and solving it with them. It’s also a cosy mystery. Also under cosy mystery is the “herrings” series which you can read in any order but follows this author and his agent who don’t really like each other and solve murders together, so funny and cosy.

I believe that the “Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon” by Stephen King is about a girl who is lost in the woods.
I feel like the Sawkill Girls is a good one for "girl in the woods" there's a creepy creature (I can't remember what he's called now) and sacrifices in the woods. The Maidens by Alex Michalidis (I know I spelled that wrong) has great fall/dark academia vibes, with a did not see that coming twist!

For a book that feels like crunchy leaves, I’d recommend Silver in the Wood by Emily Tesh. I read it while listening to the Over the Garden Wall soundtrack.
My recommendation for foggy, atmospheric book is: The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. I read it around November last year and I think it was the perfect timing. A bit slow at times, but great vibes. A mix of mystery, mild academia, some spooky house elements, some "maybe paranormal, maybe not" elements, cute romance bits. A couple of surprising twists. But mostly vibes, imo even tho the mystery elemet kept me hooked 😊 Overall great. Read it in French and loved the writing, don't know about other translations tho.

Recommendations for Witches: the two prequels to the Practical Magic series: Magic Lessons & The Rules of Magic by Alice Hoffman. I didn’t much care for Practical Magic ( I love the movie though) but I adored the prequels with The Rules of Magic being my favourite.

Lala since I've been reading lots of Rick Riordan I am realizing that I love a riddle in books. I didn't realize that before.
for the crunchy leaves one I’d totally recommend Heartstopper! it’s not that atmospheric but it’s set during the school year (so it starts in fall) and it has comfy vibes for sure 🥰 pumpkinheads would also be great for that one (they’re both graphic novels)
I love this so much! I love that you added the comments and ppl gets to answer too. I’m going to mine these answers to create some fall books for me. 😁
My favourite witch book is The Witches of New York, about a pair of witches living in 1880s (I think?) New York City as they bring a new young girl into their "coven." It's a great girl-friendship book that's super witchy and also talks a lot about women's roles and feminism in the 19th century.

I would highly recommend the Silverwing Series by Kenneth Oppel. Its a fun animal fantasy Young Adult story featuring around a bat named Shade and his adventures during his first migration with his bat colony the Silverwings, Perfect for autumn/Halloween especially book three.
For anthologies/short story collections I would recommend The Dangers of Smoking in Bed or The Things We lost in the Fire by Mariana Enriquez. These are both excellent horror short story collections

Fantasticland by Mike Bockoven is incredible for Halloween and the fall spooky season. The audio book was like an investigative thriller.
I'm planning on reading cemetery boys in October and I have heard of Blanca and Roja I was wondering about that book
I want to recommend To Be Taught if Fortunate by Becky Chambers. Her Wayfarer series and newest novella are pretty popular but I don’t hear much about this one. It is a short novella about a group of astronauts on an exploratory mission and what they discover. It is written as a letter back to earth, and talks about humans and their desire for discovery and what that means. I loved it!
For the "girl in the forest"/ "girl running from someone in the forest" prompt I remember reading Black Ice by Becca Fitzpatrick when I was younger and enjoying it very much!
Girl lost in the woods: The River at Night by Erica Ferencik (this kind of fits, but it’s a group in the woods after a whitewater rafting accident 🤷🏻♀️). Also, The Forgotten Girls by Sara Blaedel. Neither is a perfect match. But, might work.
Another witchy short story collection that I enjoyed was also called Toil & Trouble, but it’s the one by Augusten Burroughs. I would read his grocery list, so I may be a tad bit biased. But it’s definitely witchy without being too scary.

I had that on my TBR but I took it off ... I think I'll add it again 😉
I don't know where it would fit, it's a YA contemporary mystery, Serious Moonlight by Jenn Bennett. Also the Jackaby series by William Ritter is a nice lil YA mystery series with a Sherlock/Dr who-esque detective, really great for fall!
This was such a solid recommendations video! I do think you might like What Should Be Wild which is on your GoodReads Want to Read.

Here are some that I've read: Blood Sugar by Daniel Krauss Clown in a Cornfield by Adam Cesare Practical Magic Halloween Fiend by CV Hunt All of the classics like the Book of Halloween, Something Wicked This Way Comes, the Legend of Sleepy Hollow Coraline Meddling Kids Any recommendations?

There is a book called Haunted Nights. It's a Halloween themed short Story collection. It's by Blumhouse Books. Also! Kill Creek by Scott Thomas. I read that one awhile ago and I remember it was a bit scary but not TOO scary

Small Spaces by Katherine Arden though it's middle grade or very young YA. Still gets some spook factor :)

There is this amazing short story anthology called October Dreams, and all of the stories take place on or around Halloween--PLUS, all of the authors share personal stories about their favorite Halloween memories. It's my all-time favorite anthology; highly recommend.
I think The Inheritance of Orquidea Divina by Zoraida Cordova would be perfect for fall.
Girl missing in the woods- ruthless by Carolyn Lee adams- the first chapter begins with a girl waking up in the back of a truck and realizing she's been kidnapped. Her captor takes her to a cabin in the woods and the rest of the book is her running and hiding trying to get away and survive

Highly recommend Sawkill Girls for spooky/sapphic vibe - 5 star read for me!
The Dreadful Tale of Prosper Redding is a warm cup of Chai tea in a pumpkin patch vibes for sure!!!!!!
Ooo yes, the outliers is so fun, but definitely ridiculous 😂
Thank you so much for your recommendations! I just finished The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle and I loved it. I'll definitly check out People Like Us now and the recommendations from the thread. 😊
Blackbird cafe was a good cozy feels book.
One thing came to mind: fall in other countries! Like, there must be some books with that sort of theme!
Read books by 'Billy' Eduard Albert Meier (BEAM). Some of them have been translated to English from German.
For small town reads I would recommend Tall Bones by Anna Bailey and A Crooked Tree by Una Mannion.
