One of my more basic qualities is that I take just about every opportunity to tell people how much I love fall. The second I spy a leaf changing color, even the tiniest bit, the dopamine surge hits, and I go full-fall feral. I start to bust out the chunky knits, make lists of all the books and movies I’m going to cozy up with, and plan out the treats I’m going to make with all the fruits and veggies I’m going to procure from some adorable local farm. The “I love fall” portion of this song is basically on loop in my head for weeks on end.

Apples and persimmons are some of my fall favorites, and I do love a good squash, but pumpkin is the most deeply my shit. If it’s pumpkin-shaped, scented, or flavored, I want it decorating my home, in my coffee, in a tasty carb, and in my candles. If you, too, are of the “pumpkin spice is my blood type” ilk, then you’ve come to the right place. Below you’ll find stickers, bookmarks, clothing, and candles proclaiming your love for pumpkin spice—and spicy books, too.

Go forth and get your gourd on, my fall-loving friends. Let’s be basic together.

I love when books and bookish merch come with bonus recipes! I can vouch for the recipe and suggest blending the ingredients with a frother or immersion blender before adding the coffee. Also: add vanilla and/or almond extract to enhance sweetness without adding more sugar. Trust me, it’s delish. $5 for this bookmark.

I was apparently the last person to know about The Pumpkin Spice Café, a book I assumed was making the rounds due to its fall-flavored title and premise but that also got a big ol’ boost from TikTok. This candle evokes the book’s charm and vibes with one of five cozy scents: amber, coffee, fresh rain, pumpkin spice, and pumpkin pecan pie. $22

Fill your reading space with this candle’s spicy scents of cinnamon, cardamom, and nutmeg. Maybe have a fall treat at the ready, because just writing this is making me hungry. $25
