I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

A mysterious stranger, pilfering and robbery, romance, and illness make up the incidents in this winter.

Another nostalgic trip back to the countryside in 1961.

I‘ve decided that 2019 will be the year that I try some of the Miss Read books. Is anyone else a fan?

#WinterWonderland

shawnmooney I want to try one too. If we read one of hers together, can we call it the Misses Buddy Read? 😜 6y
Melissa_J I‘ve never heard of them 😬 I‘m intrigued. 6y
DGRachel I‘ve never heard of them either, but I love that cover. If you do a buddy read, I want to play along! 6y

quietjenn I've only read a few of them, but I enjoyed them! 6y

Ruthiella Never read but I‘ve heard good things about it!😀 6y
KerriNTurner I‘ve never read any, but I always hear good things about them! 6y
LeahBergen @shawnmooney we most certainly can! 😆😆 Although... I have a feeling this author might be too “cozy” for you. 🤔 6y
LeahBergen @Melissa_J I‘m intrigued, too. 😄 6y
LeahBergen @DGRachel Definitely! 6y
LeahBergen @Leftcoastzen She‘s been on my radar forever, too! 6y
LeahBergen @Mdargusch 😆😆 I‘ll let you know when I start one. She has two series Thrush Green (1st book: Thrush Green) and Fairacre (1st book: Village School). Keep an eye out for them. 😄 6y
LeahBergen @quietjenn Oh, good! 6y
LeahBergen @Pamwurtzler I‘ll let you know when (if 😆) I start one! 6y
LeahBergen @Ruthiella @KerriNTurner I‘ve heard such good things, too. 6y
Lreads I love Miss Read! I've read some of her stories set in Fairacre and I've listened to some of the Thrush Green stories on audio. The country villages and interesting characters make for pleasant reading. 6y
Cinfhen I‘m not familiar with Miss Read 🙈 6y
TrishB @Cinfhen me neither! Lovely cover 💕 6y
Cathythoughts What a cover 👍🏻♥️ 6y
DGRachel Ooh, the first books in each series are currently available on Kindle Unlimited in the US! 6y
LeahBergen @QuietlyLaura Oh, that bodes well for me liking them! 😊 6y
LeahBergen @Cinfhen @TrishB Well, I think she‘s a bit obscure now. 😁 6y
LeahBergen @Cathythoughts It‘s lovely, isn‘t it? 6y
LeahBergen @DGRachel I wonder if they‘re illustrated? 🤔 All of her books are illustrated with charming little line drawings. 6y
DGRachel I‘m not sure if they show up on a Kindle paperwhite (I don‘t have mine with me), but they do show up on the Kindle Cloud Reader Version (at least they do for Thrush Green) 6y
LeahBergen @DGRachel Oh, that‘s good to know! I‘m always of the mindset that more books should be illustrated. 😆😆 6y
shawnmooney @LeahBergen BTW, I sent you a Voxer message about a buddy read. Please check it when you have a chance OK? 6y
LeahBergen @shawnmooney Will do, my darling buddy reader! 😘😘 6y
Reviewsbylola This is a great cover! 6y
rubyslippersreads One of my friends has been recommending them for years. I‘d definitely be interested in a group read. 😊 6y
LauraBeth These books look delightful! 6y
Mdargusch I‘m going to hunt them down! 6y

Snow, snow and more snow is in the forecast for us. So a cozy weekend inside is the plan. I‘ll be surrounding myself with creature comforts: the last Valentine‘s Day blooms (I‘m always so sad to see them fade), a new mulberry tea, and the coziest of reads, another Thrush Green novel for the #MissReadAlong. I can‘t think of anything more charming than a book about an English village, when I‘m curled up inside, due to temperamental weather.

rubyslippersreads I've never read any Miss Read, but they sound lovely. 7y
catebutler @rubyslippersreads I think you‘d love them! They‘re so idyllic and just a fun escapist read. Each book focuses around little stories about the people who live in a quaint English village. 7y
somebooksaround This looks so cozy! 🙌 7y

wanderlustforwords Are you snowed in this weekend? If you are are you cooking/baking any goodies? 7y
catebutler @josteele Thank you so much, Jo! With the weather we‘re having, I‘m all about the cozy! Hope you‘re having a delightful weekend, yourself! 7y
catebutler @wanderlustforwords Yes, I am! Today it‘s been snowing all day. I‘m hoping tomorrow might let up a bit so I can go out for a while. If not, more cozy reading and yes, baking is it the works. I have a new cookie recipe I‘ve been dying to try! How‘s your weekend going? 7y
wanderlustforwords @catebutler I figured you‘d be making some treats! 😌My weekend was ok. I worked all day Saturday, feeling a bit overwhelmed keeping up on volume of stock for the shop. Sunday was good, I did nothing! 7y
catebutler @wanderlustforwords It sounds like you had a great weekend, although quite busy! I‘m glad Sunday was a slow one for you! (edited) 7y
