Cleansing my palate of the terrible that was “Layla.” This is delightful so far. #mrdickensandhiscarol #samanthasilva #christmascarol #christmasbooks #holidayreads

Sharpeipup Oh no! I was just picking up 2y
actualdisneyprincess It‘s…something. 😬 I think it‘s one of those books that‘s especially love it or hate it, no middle ground. I‘m interested to see what you think!! 2y

While story #2 was bittersweet & broke my heart 🎄💔🎄, many more are very charming 🎄🎄🎄. I‘m so glad I saw the post by @Texreader about this audiobook!

Texreader So good to hear. I may have to relisten to them. I‘ve forgotten them. 2y
tpixie @Texreader 😀 I‘m like that - I go from one book to the next & don‘t let them settle in my brain! 2y
AnnR I reached the second story and stopped reading but I'm glad to know there are some pleasant stories beyond that. The Fir-Tree was well written but so incredibly sad and you can feel it coming midway through. Adding this compilation back to my list for the 2023 holiday season. 🙂🎄 Thanks for the thoughtful review. 2y
tpixie @Ann_Reads thankfully all the other stories are more uplifting. The Fir Tree was heart wrenching! 2y

🎄Christmas Haul Part One with a distinct Bloomsbury theme. I recently bought an annotated Mrs. Dalloway so have some Woolf 2022 reading goals.

Has anyone read either of these? I‘d love to hear your thoughts/reviews on them.

elkeOriginal From the Servants description: “That room of Woolf's own was kept clean by a series of cooks and maids” - OUCH! 3y
elkeOriginal The Servants book looks fascinating! 3y

jlhammar Square Haunting is very good. Enjoy! 3y
Jess_Read_This @jlhammar and @Augustdana I‘m so glad to hear it‘s a good one! I was pretty excited to finally get it. It‘s been on my book radar all year too. Thanks for reaffirming to me it‘s a good one. 3y
Jess_Read_This @TrishB Lol- that‘s the story of my life! I have many tagged books but they sit waiting for me to get to them! 3y
Librarybelle Square Haunting is on my to read list…they both look so good! 3y
Jess_Read_This @Librarybelle I thought so too! I love a good below stairs kind of book, so am very intrigued on the Woolf one. And Square Haunting just sounds fascinating to me. 3y

Looking for a cute&fluffy Christmas romance? You may enjoy this! I liked the inn setting, and a lot of the scenes, but this had all the features I hate about romances. My main gripe was gender expectations. For example: a discussion about how you get boys legos but all girls like makeup; the narrator reflecting on how she gave up being goth to be feminine for a boy, and again to be feminine for adulthood. #LittenListenBingo #ChristmasBooks

PuddleJumper It is rife in the genre and it's so frustrating and disappointing. Sometimes feels like it's ten/twenty years out of date 3y
Kenyazero @PuddleJumper It‘s super frustrating! Can‘t we just have fluffy wonderful stories without all that unnecessary cultural baggage? It‘s why I usually don‘t listen to romance, but this was a bonus borrow on Hoopla 3y
