The opening scene is the most beautiful magical picture I have ever seen. It gave me feelings of hope, happiness, gratitude, warmth, love. Thank you for that image!
Love the aesthetic of this video! It's so peaceful and serene. I miss being outdoors.
I just finished the night circus and it’s one of my favorite books now. It just felt like nothing i’d read before, I hope you enjoy it!
I second this! I’m thinking of re-reading it this fall because I love it so much at this time of year!
Aagh Caitlin! You should have your own booktube!
This is so good to know! I’m really really looking forward to reading it ❤️
I’ve just started it!
Mornings, books, peppermint tea, and Morgan's videos goes so well together for autumn! 🍁 ❤
Fun fact I live in France and found books an english it's not really easy. But one day to Emmaüs I found Wildwood, the same edition of yours. One week after I discovered your chanel. And this year I choose to read this book for the pumpkin autunm challenge, a french reading challenge. So magic life⭐.
Have a good reading and a good fall. 🍁
Your illustrations are charming and just make me feel happy and childlike! I hope you will consider selling them as cards, postcards and also cards that can be opened, perhaps blank inside so that the giver can write a note based on the occasion for sending the card. This illustration would be lovely to send as a "Happy First Day of Fall" or for a fall birthday or Thanksgiving, or even a support card to remind a friend to get out and walk in nature and enjoy life's free gifts
now that it is september i am SO ready to dive into the coziness of fall 🧡🤎 the leaves are already starting to change here in new hampshire and the weather is finally cooling down as well 🍂
MY GOD 🧡🍂 the quality of your videos, the creativity, your sweetness.. I just can’t! I can’t believe there was a time I didn’t knew you and didn’t had this heartwarming videos to be cozy with.
Wow what a talent you have for drawing and your use of colour. What's more I love the whimsical style of your drawing and the feel good fairytale vibes in your picture - it really looks like it could complement a fairytale book or graphic novel for autumn like your choice of book recommendations - it's beautiful!

Just begun watching and it's already giving me such cozy sweater vibes ☺
THIS IS THE VIDEO I HAVE LONGING FOR! haha my google searches since Wednesday have literally been "best fall books, best fall shows, etc" So excited for this one :)
I just love your illustration style and colours and passion for creativity. You have inspired me to get out my little painting book again. And it's never too late - I'm 59. Thank you, Morgan. Sending hugs from an autumnal feeling day in Gloucestershire, England.
Thank you so very much for this, friend. You’re absolutely right, it’s never too late! After all, we continue aging no matter what so we may as well pursue the things we love while we age/live!
Thank you so much for making these videos, Morgan! I am a new college student living far away from home and watching your channel during my Friday morning routine gives me the same feeling of comfort and excitement about life as calling my mom or seeing an old friend. I hope you have a wonderful weekend, and that you know how much your videos bring joy to others!
Aw, this makes me so happy, Cara! Thank you for sharing, friend ❤️❤️
The Night Circus is one of the most beautiful books I have ever read, and I HIGHLY recommend Erin Morganstern’s other, more recent book A Starless Sea. It’s a beautiful story about the art and magic of storytelling.
I loved your painting in the blue sketchbook, and the portrait at 22:14 is very accomplished, beautifully done!
oh Morgan your illustration is so beautiful! I got lost in my thoughts looking at it, it radiates! thank you for this video full of kindness and beauty! you relieve our hearts during this rather difficult time to live. thank you, a thousand thanks ❤ god bless you !
Yessss finally fall the best time of the year and this video literally got me more into the mood ❤️❤️❤️ love it
You are an illustrator! Absolutely loved the painting. Lovely, as always, video.
It is So Wonderful to see that you are back in such a creative flow! 😊✨💖 Soo exciting to see your new patreon tier come to fruition! Your painting is pure magical, whimsical, cozy autumn vibes!! I think you capture the essence of the beginning of Fall perfectly! 💛🍁🍂
Thank you so very much, Kristen friend!! Especially for encouraging me when I was filled with self-doubt. I'm excited to catch up 💛🍁🍂
Thank you for finding the courage to share your art with us, thank you for trusting us with something so precious and vulnerable. The illustration sums up perfectly the atmosphere of your channel, the beauty and the wonder of this ever changing world. It's truly amazing and has a soul of its own.
I truly dread the cold and darkness of the upcoming seasons so the warmth of this video is helping me to ease into it with a little less fear... 🙏 [Edited just to add that I joined the Cinnamon & Clove tier, I've always wanted to support you more than Peppermint but couldn't afford the Earl Grey one, so this is the perfect opportunity to support and encourage your art. I already know your creations will give me much happiness! 🖼️💛]
Thank you so so SO much for joining my Cinnamon & Clove tier, Monica friend 💛
@@MorganLong ❤️
Frankenstein and Ocean at the End of the Lane (Gaiman) are on my reading list this fall!💗
1 minute into the video and already all of my stress and anxiety is going away! Thank you Morgan 😊
I'm so glad-- thank you for being here, friend 🤗
Thankyou Morgan for this amazing video, because of you I read more books than usual.
My favorite season! I can’t wait to read some of the books you recommended especially the poetry book. Love your videos! ❤️❤️❤️
I love your illustration. It’s so sweet and a great representation of starting autumn.
Thank you, I have recently found your podcast. You are a breath of fresh air. I have been binge watching. I thoroughly enjoy your videos, they are so calming yet inspiring. I live with my family in the UK. My son and I are tea drinkers and so envious of the wonderful autumnal flavours you have. We were fortunate to have visited the USA and I love Trader Joe's. Hopefully we will manage another trip and I can stock up on the lovely Take care and thank you for taking the time to share your books and beautiful scenery.
the intro of this video already has me in such a better state of mind than i was in before i clicked. ❤️❤️
I’m so glad ❤️❤️
I loved it when your guy said " FALL in a muffin".
Made me smile so big!
I also am reading Magic Lessons from the library.
Follow up with us on your homemade orange cinnamon strands.
Much love to you both,
Tanoa
I would recommend the graphic novel Pumpkinheads! It's a cute little fall story about two friends and a pumpkin patch :) It makes me feel very excited for fall!
Congratulations on starting prints and your new Cinnamon and Clove tier!! I can't wait for your art and art style to flourish
Thank you so much, Philomena friend!! 💛
Your videos are full of very beautiful and lovable pictures, that's why I always take pictures of pictures when I watch videos and I watch them for hours .... I love you my kind and loving friend 💕
Thank you, friend! Love and hugs ☀️
I feel the same way about the summer and not doing much. I love this video so much! Im so happy to have discovered you!!
Would love to see a video of you doing the things on your fall bucket list! 🍂🎃
The Night Circus was one of my all time favorite books. The Starless Sea by the same author, Erin Morgenstern was equally wonderful and magical.
What a beautiful video... Autumn atmosphere and more..love all 🍁📚🖌️
Your corner of the internet is by far MY FAVORITE! 🥰🥰🥰
THANK YOU!! 🤗🤗🤗
What a beautiful cosy vlog Morgan :) Thank you for reminding me to slow down to notice the change in seasons. I find they can escape me too. The moment when you spot something out the window is so cute! Also, so glad to see you back happy and healthy! Charlie x
Thank you so very much friend :) Hahaha, I saw 3 butterflies all dancing together just outside the window- it was absolutely beautiful!
Here’s to slowing down and experiencing the spaces inbetween 🍁
My second video by you and it brought all the good autumnal feelings to me,so cosy and warm 🍁🍂
Love love love 😭❤️
Amo, amo, amo el otoño. Así como dices hay que vivir siempre. 📚🍿📺🌳🍎☕️🫖🍂🍁
I love your videos! I'm glad you are back :)
Lovin' the vibes!
thank you Morgan for this beautiful, cozy video and all of the recommendations :) I’m definitely going to read a few of them and I’m also really interested in the poetry book 🍁🍂
Ooooo bath bombs and candles!!! The best cozy night for sure ❤️ no one can capture the true essence of fall time like you do, Morgan 🧡🧡
Thank you so much, friend ❤️
What a beautiful painting!!!!!
You should definitely read the Little House On The Prairie series by Laura Ingalls Wilder. They are the books that made me fall in love with reading. I love to revisit them from time to time as they bring me such joy.
Totally agree! And also the series to TV was positively pleasantly pleasing !! 😆😆🙋♀️ woohoo !
Absolutely!!! My very first set of books that I ever read. I was a third grader. Happiest memory.💖💖💖
@@kimcunningham2107 Mine too! My grandma lived with us and we had a race to read through them and talk about them!
@@lizziemg3486 🤗💖💕
I just love your fall wardrobe, Morgan! So comfy and cozy looking! And you still look so classy!
Ahhh thank you so much, friend!!
I'm loving your illustrations. You'll be illustrating books one day. 🤗🌲🌱💕
A beautiful and cozy video. Love the books you named. Big hug my friend!
i have very good news: your drawing of the feeling being in between seasons absolutely made me feel like i was getting the most comforting bear hug 💛 your wondrous creativity and wit comes through so perfectly in your art and i'm so happy that you're more confident in sharing it with us because it truly is a blessing to my eyes to see the world at the end of your paintbrush 🥰 also, i love your autumn reading stack!! i can't wait to hear your thoughts about "the night circus" bc that was my fav fall read this year (when it was fall back in march in the southern hemisphere, that is 😅) some of my autumnal reading recs are "rebecca" by daphne du maurier, "we have always lived in the castle" by shirley jackson, "girl with a pearl earring" by tracy chevalier and "i am the messenger" by markus zusak 🍂
Wow, friend 💛 Your comment made me tear up- thank you so so so very much for finding wonder and wit in my art and for appreciating it so 🤗
Also, I love your recommendations! I’ve made notes of them all 🍁
@@MorganLong one of my favourite quotes from anne with an e is "there is no straight path in art or life. sometimes there's no path at all and one must break down walls and machete their way through the woods to get where they need to go ... go where your passion leads you" (from s2e7 when they go to aunt jo's party 🥰) i've found such comfort in it and it reminds me of the way you live your life so much - keep on shining your light, friend: your passions will lead you exactly where you need to go 🧡
@@convoswithkara oh Kara your Anne quotes always give me goosebumps, I loved the books as a child and your quotes feel both like coming home and making a wonderful discovery!
@@monica_. aw monica!! i'm so happy that you enjoy my quoting from annE, it feels like its script is printed on the inside of my brain with how many times i've watched it 🥰 how wonderful it is to know that kindred spirits aren't so scarce, isn't it? 🧡
@@convoswithkara yes!!💛 And we have this magical and safe space where we know we will find each other ✨
I feel it's time for a reread and rewatch to soothe my autumn/winter anxiety🍂
Morgan, I couldn’t wait to watch your next video. 🤗💕 So here it is. 🌷
It has been such a long week and I cannot wait to come home and watch this video! I love your cozy vibes, especially at the start of the seasons. You are so talented, Morgan! Happy Weekend!
Thank you so much, Emily friend! I hope you’re having a cozy, rejuvenating weekend!
I cannot click this fast enough 😂 so ready for all the fall videos ❤️
That is a beautiful stack, including two of my favorites, The Bluest Eyes and Anne of Green Gables!
I love your videos! they make me feel so calm and excited at the same time
A magical way to start the day… a visit with Miss Morgan. You bring out the wonder and potentials for magic in the everyday tasks. Your art is wonder and whimsy and I am excited for your new adventure. Yes, yes, yes to “ The Name of the Wind”. On my nightstand for a second travel. 🦉🍁🍄 Happy crisp mornings here in Portland.
I completely think that September 1 is the first day of fall! Thank you for this lovely video to start the best season! 🍁🍂🍃
I totally adore your Morgan videos, they give me a lot of peace and they are the right ones for this fall season. New follower of Mexico, a hug and greetings ❤❤❤😊
I’m so happy you’re here, friend ❤️❤️❤️🤗
Awww thank u Morgan, you are so nice, lots of greetings for you ♡
You are so inspiring, Morgan! Love your videos so much 💖
Thank you so much Morgan for your videos
Thank you for your wonderful videos, Morgan! I've been following you for ages, but don't know if I've ever commented. Your illustrations are adorable! Regarding Autumnal vibes, I don't recall if you have ever shared footage of the swifts that return to the chimney at Chapman school in NW each year. If not, that would fit so well with your cozy/magical/nature-y vibe. Thanks for making Friday morning coffee so charming!
ohhh i’m gonna have to get a poem for every autumn day! i’m so excited for all the autumnal reads, i also plan on reading the graveyard book and night circus!! i would also recommend the city of ghosts series (forget if you’ve read that already) and also price guide to the occult for something more spooky! it’s set in the pnw during halloween:) also congrats on your new patreon tier!!! so exciting to see you pursuing your artist dreams😊
This makes me soooo excited for fall 🍂🍁
I'm planning on reading Anne of Green Gables this fall! Also, that illustration is so pretty 😍
Thank you so much, friend! And happy reading 🤗
That tree is perfect oml
Love the beginning of your vlog... love the book of autumn poems and a beautiful mug. Cheers ❤️
Thank you so much! Cheers friend ❤️
I just finished rereading The Name of the Wind today. I love that book so much!
SO COZY!! I’m ready for fall!! 🍁I’ll be visiting Portland in October and I am so excited!! ♥️
I always love your videos and take notes of your recommendations. You have yet to steer me wrong and have introduced some lovely book 'friends' to me, so thank you.
Loved this video! so looking forward to autumn already since the first of September. 🍁 I loved The Night Circus, I read it years ago when it first came out. 📚
♥️ you're always sending out the perfect video at the perfect time. Thank you! I think the Trickster series by Eden Robinson is a good autumn read.
Thank you Morgan! It's still 95 degrees every day here in Florida but I'm aching for it to be a proper chilly autumn. Happy I got to have a bit of that fall coziness through your video :) have a great week!
What a lovely video and collection of autumn reads! Although I do not have a tradition for fall reading I did very much enjoy a bunch of Miss Marple murder mysteries by Agatha Christie on audiobook last year. They felt PERFECT for the season!
your specimen frames had the best names and looked great! nice intro duction to times autumnal (had to look up the pronunciation to check haha) well done! and oh yes, the handpainted book! wow!!!!
Thank you so much, friend! 🍁
Oh Morgan, absolutely loved this video! So cozy and so inspiring!🍁✨
Thank you, Randi friend ❤️
Aaah I’m so excited for autumn! 🍂 Can’t wait to watch the video this afternoon with a cup of tea and a lit candle! 🕯🍵
Also - my favorite autumn books to read are Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone (I try to reread it every fall) and then a Jane Austen book✨
Love your illustration and admire your artistic style. You make the best videos. Living in Florida we don’t see seasons so your videos are magical. Thank you for another beautiful one.
It has become now a tradition to me to watch your video with a hot cup of tea and my cat after my morning lectures. Thank you so so much for these videos, they’re the highlight of Fridays and make me so so happy🍃🫖🦔
I absolutely love this ☕️
This was so cosy and you seem so happy! I reread The Night Circus in January as I needed a cosy comforting book to escape into. It was as good as I remember. Hope you get to read it!
I love slightly spooky but magical realism stuff during autumn--Phantom of the Opera and Jonathan Strange and Dr. Norrell are on my TBR this year!
I'm finally taking Jonathan Strange and Dr. Norrell as well. About a hundred pages in.
This might be the best intro you’ve done yet. I love it. Also, your illustrations have come so far! I can really see the work and love you put into your illustrations. If you ever put out a children’s illustrated book, I’ll be the first in line at Powell’s or Annie Bloom’s to get it 🥰
I absolutely adore your outro. It reminds me of a special trip I took - views from the plane window, and the tone of the music fits the trip and takes me back. I hope you keep this outro ;)
Loved this video! I love the idea about being intentional in welcoming the season, it would help let go of summer (never my favorite when I know the many winter months are coming). I am currently waiting for "A Poem for Every Autumn Day" to arrive. P.S. Congrats on launching your new tier! Beautiful illustrations, definitely feels like a hug.
I love your fall book recommendations! I’m reading Wildwood right now, which I never finished during the Patreon book club month, but better late than never 😊
Definitely read the night circus! It’s amazing and so so atmospheric! Perfect for fall! Love your content I’m always in a better mood after watching one of your videos. ☺️
Omgg i keep seeing the night circus at bookshops and libraries but i never gotten the chamce to read it yet! But out of curiousity what is it about i honestly never rewlly knew much about the story at all i just keep seeing it alot around here 😅
It’s really great! It’s set in early 1900’s and basically it’s a love story of two magicians competing against each other through this mysterious traveling circus. The first page is super gripping couldn’t put it down!
@@emilyross2307 AHHHH! Magic! Love! AHHHH that books sounds perfect for me!! Im completely sold now XD But i wont be able to read it soon since my book list is quite long and i take so long to read a book so yeah
.... :( I'll try and get a hold of it if i can! 📚
You are amazingly talented ❤️❤️❤️. Your videos bring me so much comfort.❤️💜❤️
the night circus is one of my favorite books!! definitely the perfect fall read🍂
This was so timely! Like always! Bri and I just made our fall reading lists! You helped me add to it!🥰😍📚
Happy reading, friend!!
Hello Friend Happy September 🧡
I'm so ready for much cooler weather still sizzling in TX
I find myself looking at my Halloween collection of children's illustrated books . .your drawing is so aesthetically pleasing to watch
Hope you Landon and Roo have an awesome weekend hugs my friend ❤🙋♀️🍁🌻🍂
Happy September and thank you so much, friend! 🧡
Yes, I feel the same Morgan, that I want to enjoy each season fully before it's over, by doing the seasonal things I love x P.S. I also loved the Wildwood...
Here’s to making the most of our lives 🍁
I love this video ❤️ so glad you’re back and feeling better 😊. You learning to illustrate inspired me to book an illustration course and to this month do a week of “bad” art to help overcome the fear of a blank page and being worried about only creating ‘perfect’ drawings. Your art has so much feeling and that’s what I want to focus on ☺️
This sounds so lovely, Cora!! I would love to do the same 🤗
You should watch studio ghibli's movies they are so good!! I just watched kiki's delivery service 🧹 last week and AHHHHH i loved it so much and i think i'll love the rest as much as or even more once i watched them!! 🎞
Omgg! Fall! I love how cozy fall looks over there at portland i wish we got to experience fall here it looks so beautiful with the orange leaves!! 🍁
And your illustrations! i love your art style with minimal outline and the different types of drawings from mushrooms drawings to compliment a great poem or just you!! 🖌 Love your content as always morgan its so nice to relax after a long exhausting afternoon!! Big hugs to everyone and love from singapore! 🤗❤
so excited about your new patreon tier!
what a lovely video, Morgan! I'm definitely going to look into some books you recommended. I'm so very excited for autumn🍂🍁!! You also inspired me to take out my sketchbook and do some drawing and paiting, so I think I'm going to do that today! Thank you for posting such inspiring and comforting videos, it's such a pleasure to be here! Greetings from Switzerland😊😊
Thank you so very much, Chiara friend!! Happy drawing 🍁🍂💛
Okay the intro was like a cinematic masterpiece.... Jeez.
Thank you 🤗
Aw so glad to see you are enjoying the poetry anthology! I did think it had your name on it :) xx
Thank you SO much, Lucie friend
Great artwork! Very nice I love it! Awesome video.
Hi, Morgan! Thank you for such a beautiful vlog. It truly felt like the beginning of autumn filling my senses. I’m sooooo excited for your new tier! It’s going to be magical. I can feel it. My favorite autumnal book, that I have 5 copies of to give to friends and family, is Empty Mansions by Bill Dedman & Paul Clark Newell Jr. I’ve always loved histories and biographies and always associate it with dark academia and autumn. That’s what this book is. It encompasses the life of Huguette Clark and how she spent her families fortune. It’s kind of dark and mysterious. But I feel as though, with the authors writing styles, the reader is able to feel all of these emotions from the different points of view in history in which Huguette lived.
All the hugs,
Katie
Hi, Katie!! Thank you so very much for joining my new Patreon tier!!! 🤗
I love the atmospheric autumnal dark vibes you’ve described of Empty Mansions- it sounds really really good!
