What a beautiful edition of The Snow Queen I read today! I completely forgot all the details of this famous Danish fairytale, and surprisingly it felt very comforting after stressful day at work.

Reading Day!!!!
And more to come ☃️❄️ in Colorado Springs

Leftcoastzen Wow , it‘s so beautiful! Especially if you don‘t have to drive in it. 2w
Read4life Just gorgeous ❄️❄️ 2w
ncsufoxes So beautiful. We moved to Boston last year & we haven‘t had as much snow as we expected. We haven‘t lived in an area with snow for a long time & realized how much we missed seeing snow. 2w

Winter: A Novel | Ali Smith

Pickpick

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5)
The second installment of the Seasonal Quartet did not disappoint. While I felt Autumn was more poetic, I preferred the characters in this book. It's another thoughtful exploration of art, politics, and memory. It's interesting how Smith captures the mood of each season in each book. Looking forward to Spring (in more ways than one!)
(Picture is of a past winter hike, since this winter is not winter. We had thunderstorms last night)

BkClubCare Are these stand alone books even tho “in a series”? 2w
lil1inblue @BkClubCare Yes, they definitely work as stand alone books. There's some characters that carry over, but you don't need that knowledge for the book. It's more of an easter egg. (So far, anyways. I haven't gotten to Spring or Summer yet.) 2w
BkClubCare Thanks! Good. I enjoyed Autumn and a friend suggested Winter as a buddy read. 😎 2w

I expected this to be as delightful as the cover, sadly it was not.

Honestly, it was me and not the quality of the collection. My impression is winter in the UK is generally more akin to early spring in the upper Midwest of the US, so it was difficult for me to relate to as a seasonal nature read.

Caveat, 23/24 “winter” will go down as the winter that wasn‘t.

quietlycuriouskate I'm not sure we actually get Winter here anymore. I'm on the northern edge of the West Country and what passes for Winter is more like several months of November: rain, some wind, lots of leaden-grey nothing-doing. 4w
Tamra @quietlycuriouskate 😕 It definitely appears weather patterns are changing for all of us. 4w

Went to B&N with my daughter last night and finally used some of my Xmas gift cards.
I know this is terrible news for people who give me gifts, but I‘m not really buying many books these days; we have a FANTASTIC library system and I‘m plumb out space for bookshelves.
I do love the Coralie Bickford- Smith covers though, so apparently I‘m now collecting them

Cuilin I love those covers 😍 1mo
darklydreaming Stunning 🤩 1mo

Aimeesue @Cuilin Right? I feel like I need to display them 😊 1mo
Aimeesue @darklydreaming The contents ain‘t bad either! The Christmas anthology has a nice variety of stories that you don‘t see in every single collection 1mo
Aimeesue @5feet.of.fury I just love them 💙 1mo
Aimeesue @LeahBergen I want them all! 😍 1mo

Got it for the art and was not disappointed. A lovely blend of ink and cut paper designs. Just a sweet winter moment.
