#haikuhive #haikuaday

A fave by a favorite author. 💛🤎💛

Hair and watch laid down,
love trades treasures for the other––
empty hands, full hearts.

Another sweet story about a Christmas mishap that comes right! (One year I really do need to figure out a bingo game for these recurring cozy Christmas tropes.)

Today‘s #KindredSpiritsChristmas story is “The End of the Young Family Feud,” from the “Christmas with Anne” collection. It‘s also on Hoopla, or online in these collections:

At six thirteen a.m. on a Friday morning Lucy Angkatell‘s big blue eyes opened upon another day and, as always, she was at once wide awake and began immediately to deal with the problems conjured up by her incredibly active mind.

Recent acquisition for our personal library.

We already had this title, but I replaced it with this fun Puffin Classics edition.

#StorySpins #2026reads

@AllDebooks thanks for setting this up. This is a perfect challenge for me, I got into reading mythology by accident, it all started to see if I could read The Iliad. It was tough but I also enjoyed the challenge of reading it and was amazed by how entertaining a story that was around millennia ago could be entertaining. So, I'm looking forward to this challenge and seeing what everyone else is reading. ⬇️

AnishaInkspill For Jan #2026reads I‘ve lined up the unabridged version of Argonautika, I‘ve listened to the abridged version, brilliantly read by Juliet Stevenson but this time reading the full version and the book, I‘ll see how it goes. I‘m also revisiting Prometheus Bound and putting together maybe 6 poems that relate to gods and mosters. 23h
AllDebooks Love this. ❤️ Great selection x 22h

Today‘s #KindredSpiritsChristmas story is “Christmas at Red Butte,” from the tagged collection. It‘s also on Hoopla, or online in these collections:
https://www.fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid=20150146
https://www.gutenberg.org/files/24878/24878-h/24878-h.htm

One of the things that struck me in this story was how $4 could buy ice skates, 2 dolls, nuts & candy, and “a nice plump turkey.” AND…the above brought abundant Christmas joy. ❤️

sblbooks Such a simpler time back then. Your money definitely went further too. My niece wanted a little live pet for Christmas, it was over $50 for one toy. 1d
