Based on your recommendations I have bought the Anne of Green Gables books which I read as a young child. I seem to remember there was a television series too. It’s very pleasing to see so many nature and conservation books: I’ve found ‘Corduroy’ so no doubt will enjoy that. Thank you for the great suggestions!

Felt this would be hard to watch as my dear mum died in the February, during the worst week of snow the area I live in, had for years. Winds made the snow drift across exposed fields onto the country roads. Trying to drive to be near her and see her for so short periods of time in the hospice during the 2nd lockdown was worst thing. But have found all your videos so comforting, including this one today. My mum would have adored you and Donna, your books are what she loved too,and nature and Tunnicliffe, and which she passed to me. I've read other posts from others whose mum's have died too, its truly inexpressible what your videos mean. Thank you so much and love to you and Donna.

Thank you so much Miranda. Such a lovely inspirational list of titles. I’m going to York on Friday and intend to start off with a visit to Betty’s as a treat to plan my day and finalise my book shopping gift list! Then it will be a trip to as many of the York bookshops as I can fit in! I’m very excited!

Love the channel! Just ordered some books on your recommendations! You and your sweet mom are so fun to watch. I find it very soothing and love ideas for new reads! Have you ladies ever read any Louise Penny books? It’s along the lines of Miss Marple, except it’s Inspector Gamante. Her books are mostly set in a beautiful small town in Quebec with rich characters, lots of talk about food and books. Highly recommend! ❤

I bought the beautiful special edition of Raising Hare after you spoke about it in a recent video. I’m so glad I did … like you I just loved it. Beautifully written, educational, emotional and you summed it up perfectly in this video. I can’t recommend it highly enough to anyone who may read this comment. A very special book indeed.

Just stumbled upon your video. Thank you so much for the book recommendations, there are some gems in there for sure. How lovely to see the Children of Green Knowe book with the illustrations included. That would be a wonderful gift. I was lucky to find a vintage 1960's edition with the illustrations, when on holiday a couple of years ago in Lyme regis. There is a lovely secondhand bookshop there. ( I can't recall its name ) but it's a jumble of treasure inside. I just love the story of Green Knowe and it's a tradition of mine to watch the dvd at Christmas. :)

'A Murder is Announced' by Agatha Christie goes beyond a mystery. It is so much about human nature. So far my very very favourite of Miss Marple's. Thanks for your videos. Saludos desde México :)

Always a delight to see Miranda appear in your feed!! Thank you for the recommendations. I just finished another 2 books that were recommended by you. The Vanderbeekers of 141st. Perfect Gift for children this Christmas. Also, Barchester Towers, what an eye opener this book was! I will admit I struggled with the Victorian period writing, but you definitely brought me out of my comfort zone!! lol. Have a great week Miranda!

It has been an absolutely Terribly depressing week in The US this past week. I need the poetry and nature Books to lift my spirits. Thank you for the wonderful Suggestions. Mary

A festive and informative presentation! Let the buying begin! I especially love when you recommend books that are(were) written for children but are enjoyed by all of us “old children“. They give one a feeling of nostalgia for the innocence and wonder of childhood. I live in Pennsylvania in the US and still reread the Little House on the Prairie series. Going back in time to feel the comfort you felt, in the place you felt the most at home in and the people you felt the most at home with can be as close as the book on your shelf! I appreciate all the time and effort it takes for you(and Mum) to make these videos. Such a joy!

Nigel Slater’s newest book is one I will be picking up for myself this week. I’ve begun my annual reread of The Christmas Chronicles, which you introduced to me three years ago. I may never have found him without you, Miranda and I thank you so much. All of the nature books are now on my wants lists as well. I hope anyone thinking of subscribing to Seasons of Story does do so, they won’t be disappointed.❤️
