Toad of Toad Hall | A.A. Milne
post image

A strange assortment from the Book Sorting today. . . The Modern Library is Sixteen Famous American Plays. Let us just say that the fame here was in most cases of the fleeting variety. A.A. Milne was somewhat more fortunate with his play. 😄

LeahBergen I like that Milne! 1y
Aimeesue @LeahBergen That's the only one I'm planning on keeping😋 1y

The Willows in Winter | William Horwood

Pickpick

This is my fourth book of the year, and I absolutely loved it. It was cozy, charming, and atmospheric. Revisiting these characters was wonderful. Horwood stays very true to Grahame's vision. It was a good mix of silly plot and character interaction. A great cozy pallet cleanser. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

@TheAromaofBooks is this your fault I can‘t remember who told me about these books?! 🤦🏽‍♀️😩🤷🏽‍♀️. At any rate I love them and now need to find the other two. Two library books pictured with my The Wind in the Willows collection 🤍🤍🤍

curiouserandcurioser @TheBookHippie beautiful books:) i love The Wind in the Willows! 3y
TheAromaofBooks haha yes that was me!! I'm SO glad you enjoyed them - it's been so long since I read them that after I recommended them I got a little worried 😂 I just remember them as having that same feeling of gentle fun & friendship as the original. 3y
TheBookHippie @TheAromaofBooks really good! There‘s a Christmas one and one more to find. They‘re very good so far! Bless the library ! 3y

This is my personal challenge I invite anyone to read along with me! Sometimes I ever remember to post discussion questions at the end of the month! 🤣🤣🤣📖❤️

Fridameetslucy Perrault is like Mary Poppins to Grimms as Maewest. Try the Maria Tatar book Grimms Grimmest (edited) 5y
TheBookHippie @Fridameetslucy Adding to the list!!! I prefer dark fairytales! 5y
Fridameetslucy @TheBookHippie I‘m currently reading an anthology “my mother she killed me my father he are me”. Check it out 5y

Bookish.Heart Ohhh I saw these at Foyles in London when I was there in August! I agonized over which editions to get because they had a giant array of glorious collectors editions. They were at the top but I finally went with the McMillan Collectors Library edition of The Secret Garden. I obviously just need more money 7y
BooknBooktastic I NEED THESE!! 😍😍😍 7y

This is a balm for the soul. To open its pages is to be enfolded into a loving embrace. It‘s freshly baked cookies and clean sheet day and the smell of warm grass in the sunshine. It‘s the perfect book to read before bed, to set your cares aside and let them float away down the river.
