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 😍 13mo

Aimeesue @Cuilin Right? I feel like I need to display them 😊 13mo
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 13mo

A really wonderful, and very varied, book of Christmas stories by a great selection of authors. With so many different stories I was never going to love every single one but as a collection as a whole it was very very good. I particularly appreciated the mix of more realistic and more magical stories and the inclusion of sadder toned stories like the Langston Hughes. The absolute standout for me was Angela Carter‘s.

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join the fun if you want.
This is day 42
