I've loved Ted Kooser ever since I found out he used to mail penned Valentines to 50 lucky ladies each year. ❤️ This book won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 2005 and while he was Poet Laureate of our country. His poems seem simple for they usually center on one idea or person. But they are anything but. I posted “In January“ to give you an idea.

I'm in a solsticy-woodsy mood (wonder why? 🤩), so when I feel that way, I always come to this one.

The promise of a traditional, English Christmas at a country manor house is just the thing to motivate Hercule Poirot to take on this Christmastime case. A young prince is in diplomatic hot water for lending a family jewel to a woman who seizes the opportunity to steal it. An international scandal is ready to break ... will Poirot be able to save the day, and the prince's reputation? Bonus: it's a short story!

📖 I don't really read seasonally. It depends on my mood
📖 Historical, mysteries, and fantasy
📖 No, but we do watch a lot of A Christmas Carol adaptations!
📖 The Tailor of Gloucester by Beatrix Potter - we also watch the TV adaptation every year (available on DVD)
