Kind-hearted Albert! Upon waking one morning and putting his hand out the window to check the temp, a twig drops into his hand…and from that simple movement his life will change 🐦‍⬛ Lovely illustrations ❤️

Hollow Kingdom | Kira Jane Buxton

Not my typical read! I LOVED the animal perspective and the authors ability to capture their naive consciousness. S.T. made me laugh out loud multiple times. I genuinely enjoyed the character‘s whit and devotion to his family! Book would be a five star for me, but I thought the fundamental reason for the creation of “Hollows” really missed the mark. 4 out of 5!

The Lost Words: A Spell Book | Robert Macfarlane, Jackie Morris

Gorgeous beyond words this book is not long, but so thoughtful & lovely. A few words about nature were removed from the Oxford Junior Dictionary, so the author & illustrator created this epic to honor them. For each word (otter, bramble, & bluebell) there is a jumble of letters, then a page with a beautiful poem based on the word, then a full-spread illustration depicting that word alive in nature. It‘s a pleasure to read & I'm thrilled to own it.

#12Booksof2025 November / Book 11 : surprise twist! This was not my highest rated read of the month (that honor goes to the new WWII historical fantasy A Resistance of Witches) but it has stuck with me enough that I am pursuing research at work related to the information I learned about pigeons in WWII from this author. Inspiration should always be celebrated!

The Axeman's Carnival | Catherine Chidgey

I had picked this one up a couple of months ago, and couldn't really get into it, and put it aside, thinking it just wasn't the right time. Turns out #AuldLangSpine was totally the right time! I whipped through this one in three days (yes, I was overly eager and started early, too @CBee 🤣). I love Chidgey's ability to tell the story hidden behind the story, the sense of unease and apprehension she lends with just a few well placed glimpses. 👇

TheKidUpstairs It was gripping and thoughtful, tense but full of heart, intriguing commentary on lives lived online, domestic violence, and our relationship with the animals around us, and a generous sprinkling of humour. I loved it. 1w

monalyisha @TheKidUpstairs @CBee I can‘t even get over that you‘re both the first to post #AuldLangSpine2026 reviews and that you both picked up a book from the other‘s list, started it, stopped, then picked it up again for the event. And that you both started early, unbeknownst to the other person! Just fabulous. 😅💖 1w
CarolynM Great review. You‘re absolutely right about that “story behind the story” thing. 1w
CBee @monalyisha your matching skills are obviously magic 😊💚 1w
