Hello Friends. I hope you have all been well. As usual I have left my poor blog to languish while I navigate life. My hope is to be here much more regularly and I have all kinds of ideas for future posts. This isn’t a proper post, just a quick check in to say hello and share the books I plan to read this month. I don’t have a big list this month, and in keeping with the upcoming holidays they are holiday and winter themed. I’ve jumped on the “reading ghost stories at Christmas” theme with an Isak Dinesen collection. (I never knew that was a thing)

Anyway, in no particular order: The Quiet Little Woman by Louisa May Alcott; Old Christmas by Washington Irving; The Old Magic of Christmas by Linda Raedisch; The Glass Wonan by Caroline Lea; and Winter’s Tales by Isak Dinesen. I may also reread a very sweet family favorite picture book called The Yule Tomte and the Little Rabbits by Ulf Stark.
