I experience exactly the same thing! I am inevitably drawn to the Legendarium in the Fall months. It may have something to do with the fact that my "discovery" of UT and HoMe occurred in the early fall, so that I associate the season with that memory. But I do wonder if it's more than that, particularly since you have the same experience.

Is there something autumnal about Tolkien's work? Interesting question.
