The bear and the nightingale is the most perfect book for the winter time

@eileennielsen3607 2 года назад

Little Women is my absolute all time favorite book. I think I was 12 when I first read it. I read it every 2 yrs. Not necessarily at Christmas. Lisa May Alcott lived in the town (Concord) which is next to the town I grew up in; Lexington, Mass. I have been in her house soooo many times I could be the tour guide. I read A Christmas Carol every other Christmas. I read A great book last Christmas that I will always keeps Red bird Christmas by Fannie Flagg. First time I have watched your channel. Thanks!

@alexg7832 2 года назад

Currently reading little women and I’m loving every second of it! I’m roughly 100 pages in and it’s perfect for a cozy, winter read so far!

@cori5025 2 года назад

That's it, the Greenglass House is going on my TBR 🔥

@sammibowden3164 2 года назад

I’ve been wanting to recommend this book to you for the longest time. You may have already read it because I picked up after Darling Desi recommended it. It’s called “Winter Solstice.” It’s about five people who’s lives all kind of kind of intertwine somehow and they all end up in a cabin/cottage somewhere during the Holiday season. I really enjoyed it and thought it was very homey, warm and a perfect read for “by the fire.”

@mousumeenath4922 2 года назад

@romalibra_books 2 года назад

I miss you and your videos so much I started rewatching all my favorite ones 😅

@rockyj885 2 года назад

Thank you for yet another awesome recommendations video! Before the end of the video, I bought Murder for Christmas on my kindle and borrowed Greenglass House from my library (and yes, my December TBR is crying right now...) I just read a Christmas Carol last week, listened to the audiobook which was read by Hugh Grant and I might make it a Christmas tradition to listen to it, honestly. As for Christmas book recommendations, if you like Christmas with the Kranks, I highly recommend the book it was based on, Skipping Christmas by John Grisham. It's quick, fun and full of haha moments 🔥🔥🔥

@DorothyOzmaLover 2 года назад

Really nice picks that really sound great from your intriguing blurbs and makes me wanna get a comforter and start lightening a fire as I get coco goin!

@ELizbeth135 2 года назад

I read Little Women for the first time in 2020… it’s a masterpiece and just went straight into my heart. Enjoy!

@HollyByGollyBooks 2 года назад

You reminded me I need to throw Murder on the Orient Express onto my TBR asap!!!!! The Holiday Swap was a 3 star for me, but it was SOOO cozy and I was obsessed with the baking elements, I hope you enjoy that one so much!! :)

I actually was waiting for you to recommend A Christmas Carol 😁🔥

@emilylightsey6374 2 года назад

LOVED Greenglass House and the sequel Ghosts of Greenglass House!!! Would highly recommend. I would also recommend the Winterhouse series. It is a middle grade trilogy set in a hotel in a very wintry place. I enjoyed all three of them. Also, I just finished Even the Darkest Stars, and ordered the sequel. Very wintry mountain climbing setting.

@nettielynch434 5 месяцев назад

Oh my goodness, I'm up to book 4nof Greenglass House series. Excellent series! Highly recommend!!

@MissLatteholic 2 года назад

Thanks for these recommendations, I'm looking for more cozy reads this holiday since I have to cancel my travel plans again 😅

@KeaLynn 2 года назад

So I’m an avid reader, but I’m also not someone who *binges* books very often (I’ll read a little bit each day) anyway.. I got Greenglass House right after your last recommendation and in 2 days I was almost done and SAD about it. I recommended it to so many people because it’s SOO GOOD. And it made me watch this video because I NEED MORE.

@LittleMissSunnydays.4456 2 года назад

Love the Books& this Channel! I am currently actually reading the Holiday Swap & if you’ve seen any of the Princess Switch movies with Vanessa Hudgens it totally relates to the first movie of this series! Im loving it so far

@laurenteague3705 2 года назад

One of my favorite Christmas books is O Little Town by Don Reid. If you haven’t read it, it’s a must read! Merry Christmas!🎄🎁

@kiannamoss4896 2 года назад

@romalibra_books 2 года назад

There are only 3 things that bring me calm and peace : Harry Potter books, Friends, and Lexie's videos 🤩

@ashlynhale3369 2 года назад

Little women is an all time favorite and also the perfect cozy read! I read Greenglass House when you and Kaylyn did a readalong and that is now a favorite too! 😊This year I hope to read A Winter’s Promise as I have wanted to for so long 😊❄️☃️

@monicamoskovics8686 6 месяцев назад

I have read several of those and wholeheartedly agree (Little Women, A Winter's Promise and Murder on the Orient Express are all excellent recommendations!) I am going to read a Curse so Dark and Lonely and Essex Serpent this winter - they seem like they are good cold weather books and at least Essex Serpent opens around Jan 1... so maybe it is a good one to pick up after the New Year. :)

@emilyross2307 2 года назад

Charles “frickin” Dickens 💀🤣😂 you kill me! Love your videos so much!

@MandySparkles712 2 года назад

And now I'm heading straight to the library and the finding somewhere with a fireplace 🔥

I loved the ''You liked the Polar Express?'' moment, I lost it 🤣🤣🤣 And yes, Little Women ftw!! I received that book as a present, my first book ever!! It's perfect for this time of year

@nicolepena314 2 года назад

I ordered it after her last recommendation and I can’t recommend it enough! She definitely is not over-exaggerating, it’s so good.

@booksbeanies5425 2 года назад

@CedricsMom 2 года назад

NO FIREPLACE? NO PROBLEM! Just pull up one of those great fireplace channels on RU-vid. It works just as well if you're under a cozy blanket. It's the crackling and the orange light that makes the magic.

@vickip54 2 года назад

Thanks for the book list. Ok, but seriously, the mug! Where did you find it? I would love to see a tour of your library. So cozy

@lindylouwho550 2 года назад

Great recommendations. I would add Truman Capote's "A Christmas Memory" - delightful short story. Also, have you read any Miss Read books? They are quintessentially English, set in cosy, quaint villages. "A Country Christmas", " The White Robin", "The Christmas Mouse" and many more are an absolute delight. 🎄🎄🎄

@cristinmurphy9407 2 года назад

I just finished The Afterlife of Holly Chase, it's a kind of Scrooge retelling. It's YA, and it's soooo good! A great holiday read.
