Okay, this has a few people doing it every month so I want to make a “Rules” Section to make it easier!
A little about how this started… I wanted to do an Emerald post for my birthday month. It’s such an easy tag to do that I thought I should do them all! I started it in January of 2022 and it’s been so fun. I’ve had a few people jump in and I’ve loved seeing their posts! ❤
Rules
- Mention the creator (me- Leslie @ Books Are The New Black ) and link back to me so I can see your post!
- Pick 5+ book covers that match the current month’s Birthstone.
- HAVE FUN!
- Nominate people if you want!
Happy Birthday to all the August babies!! My mom’s birthday this month and I’ve always loved Peridot! It’s a light-yellowish to dark-brownish green.
Books I’ve Read






It’s as easy as that! I just wanted something different to post about that didn’t require too much thinking. Who doesn’t love colorful covers though?! Here’s a list of the colors throughout the year if you want to plan ahead 🙂

*All my gems and info is just from a quick google search!* Not an expert!

Very fun post! 💜

Thank you! Aww, November is a tough one! The variance on it is crazy too. Sometimes more orange, yellow, or brown. Do they have an alternatives? I haven’t looked into Nov. yet but some months have a couple options.
