5 ⭐️ Fall Read- Perfect For Your New England Trip

🍁 I did it. I found the epitome of the perfect New England fall read. If It Makes You Happy by Julie Olivia absolutely knocked it out of the park.

Set in a small, Gilmore Girls-esque Vermont town, this book wrapped me up in that golden, cozy glow that just feels like fall. I’m actually heading to Vermont with my family this weekend, so this read couldn’t have come at a better time, and let’s just say my expectations are now sky-high 😅

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from me, here’s what you can expect:

✨ 90s nostalgia (hello, cassette tapes and flannel)

🏡 Small-town charm + cozy B&B vibes

🔥 A perfectly paced slow burn romance

💌 Found family & heartfelt friendships

🍂 Autumn atmosphere so vivid you’ll want to book a Vermont trip immediately

🎞️ Think: You’ve Got Mail meets Gilmore Girls with a dash of When Harry Met Sally

And can we just appreciated this stunning cover art? I’m literally using this book as my fall decor 😂

📣 If you have been to VT feel free to share any recs and good local bookstores! Also, have you read this book yet- is it an accurate representation of New England towns??
