My suggestions for what to read in late winter, when the evenings are still cold and dark. I've put together a selection of fiction, non-fiction and beautiful coffee table books that are the perfect fireside companions.

Yes! Seasonal reading is my new thing! I’d suggest News From Thrush Green for winter. Wintry cover too. Lived your list!!!

So many great wintery cozy recommendations, thanks for sharing:) Nothing better than curling up with a mug of cocoa and a good book on a long dark evening!

I'm so glad you enjoyed my suggestions, thank you! I agree there's no better way to spend a winter evening xxx

Thank you for all these seasonally appropriate reads! They will certainly make these dark months much cozier and warmer :)

You're very welcome! There's nothing like a good book for whiling away a long evening!

Have just purchased Bookworm on your recommendations, nothing like a bit of nostalgia on a cold winters day!

@MirandaMills 3 года назад

Wonderful! Hope you enjoy it 😊

Winters here in northern Canada are arduous and harsh so these book recommendations brightened my day! :) I just made yet more library requests thanks to you and am particularly excited about The Art of Coorie and Bibliostyle. I'm unable to find The Secret Life in Tartan and The Nature of Winter in our library system but will make special search requests for them. Cannot wait to read Laura Purcell books...thrilled to the core to hear about authors' writing style similar to Daphne du Maurier. Another delightful video...you make some very unique and varied recommendations...very much appreciated.

Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I am half Canadian (my Dad's family is from Saskatchewan), so I know all about those harsh winters!! I'm so pleased you enjoyed my recommendations, and I hope your library can track down those titles.

@@MirandaMills You definitely do know all about winters if you know about Saskatchewan! :) Scotland is one of my favourite countries to travel...it has a piece of my heart. My husband and I live part time in outrageously beautiful Croatia (though we can't most winters) so we are very blessed.

Such a wide assortment of winter reads! Activities to do and understanding the season.. thank you for the selections. The Light in the Dark sounds really interesting. ☺

@jobailey927 4 года назад

So many more 📚 to read! I haven’t really considered seasonal reading before but for the last few years I have read Winter Solstice (Rosalind Pilcher? I think) just before Christmas . I am also going to give Bookworm another chance; it’s on my charity shop pile at the moment. It just didn’t to seem to have any flow for me but so many people love it, it must be me!

@MirandaMills 4 года назад

I love reading Winter Solstice in the run-up to Christmas too - I even like to read it in 'real time' where you can match the days in the book. I think it's definitely worth giving Bookworm another chance, although of course not every book is for everyone!

@pamelapoet9 4 года назад

I, too, enjoy the quiet shades of winter. Bibliostyle looks lush! I love publications like these for many bookish reasons, but also because they help me to feel less anxious about my own precarious book towers and overstuffed bookcases. I'm intrigued by Melissa Harrison's seasonal anthologies. And by the Gothic recommendations.

@MirandaMills 4 года назад

Oh I know just what you mean!! Bibliostyle makes me feel very much better about my own teetering piles of books too! xxx

@@MirandaMills I saw a trailer for an upcoming documentary on antiquarian booksellers and thought of you. I hope it will be available in the UK. It opens here in the U.S. in March. www.booksellersmovie.com

Jane Eyre is my favourite book as for frankenstein's book I tried to read it but it kind of scared me I didn't know what I was getting into

@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293 3 года назад

Frankenstein and Wuthering Heights are two books which cinematic retellings totally bastardised in almost every attempt. If you'd never read either of them and believed the TV or film adaptations, you'd be almost entirely mistaken in what they're really all about and of course, what the individual characters truly are all about. I wonder what other novel people think has been utterly re-written and re-directed when retold in movie form? Are there any you can think of that personally aggravate you to contemplate?

@donnaturner2702 4 года назад

I’m currently reading Frankenstein now for the first time and enjoying it very much. I really enjoyed the Thirteenth Tale and would like to reread this one. I love all your winter cozy recommendations and will be adding them to my TBR list. Great video!

Oh that's a great coincidence that you're reading Frankenstein at the moment! Thank you so much - I'm really pleased you enjoyed my recommendations. Happy Reading!
