This book was an excellent companion on my #audiowalks. The magic of de Lint pairs nicely with being outdoors.

1. It seems a strange choice, but de Lint's books have provided a much needed escape this year.
2. Louisa May Alcott, de Lint, Brian Jacques
3. My book club & #bookspinbingo @TheAromaofBooks - seems silly, but the bingo board has made it a million times easier to decide my next read

I was so glad to still be able to visit the iris gardens this year. As a child i used to go with my mom and my aunt. Since my aunt passed, i still try to go in her memory. So glad covid couldn't put a stop to that. I adore the iris gardens-it brings so much joy!
And i discovered Charles de Lint since covid started (see tagged book)! I love his books!

It's not what I expected when Open Books guy recommended because of my love of Neil Gaiman. Bummer!
“Okay, but seriously. Can we just read today??” Oh, Floof.

My favorite Urban Fantasy author ever! I just want to go and visit the city of Newford once before I die.
This collection of short stories is one of my favorites and is a great introduction to anyone wondering what all the hype about Charles de Lint is actually about.
*spoiler* he's friggen brilliant */spoiler*
“There's stories and then there's stories. The ones with any worth change your life forever, perhaps only in a small way, but once you've heard them, they are forever a part of you. You nurture them and pass them on, and the giving only makes you feel better. The others are just words on a page.” #story
An all-time favorite. Any Litten can see why. #QuotsyJan18
This book is the perfect Charles de Lint gateway drug, you urban fantasy fans.
I couldn't find any books with shoes on my shelves! So I pulled this de Lint out to represent my barefootedness.

Newford is one of my favourite fictional small towns, though I have barely read half of the books. De Lint is also one of my favourite #CanadianAuthors. He has written so many books, I don't know if I will ever be able to say I've read them all. #smalltown #rockinmay @Cinfhen

A sentiment all Littens can get behind. #aQuoteaDay
Audio. Short stories. I may not have been in the mood but I just couldn't get into this collection. Each was brief and while well thought out, it just felt like something kids would tell over a camp fire. I didn't care about the people, the town, or the creatures.
