Thank you all for joining me for #KindredSpiritsChristmas this year! These sweet stories have been a delight & I‘ve really enjoyed reading them with each of you. I hope you have a wonderful, meaningful holiday full of the grateful & giving spirit of these stories. #KindredSpiritsBuddyRead
There are a lot of repeated themes and plot devices in these stories, but I think that's forgivable, since LM Montgomery didn't write them to be read together, but instead as freelance writing for various publications. Overall, it's a sweet collection and perfect for a cold night on a warm couch.
The last read for #KindredSpiritsChristmas is another cozy feel-good read from the queen of cozy. I‘ve really enjoyed reading these stories every day. Thanks so much for hosting @BarbaraJean ! 🤗 80 points

“I'd love to be friends with you,“ she said slowly. “I've often thought I'd like to know you. Isn't it odd that we have the same name? It was so nice of you to come and see me. I—I'd love to have you come often.“
Aw—such a sweet story of a mixup that leads to a kind deed and a future friendship. Also: Josie Pye!! ? ⤵️

“She had planned to spend a nice, lazy holiday with the new book her father had given her at Christmas and a box of candy.”
Those sound like FANTASTIC plans for New Year‘s Day, and I feel that “regretful peep” at her book!! But I love the plan to brighten someone‘s New Year, anonymously—with such a wonderful result. ⤵️
