  • My suggestions for what to read in late winter, when the evenings are still cold and dark. I've put together a selection of fiction, non-fiction and beautiful coffee table books that are the perfect fireside companions.

    Are you kidding? I ALWAYS love your recommendations. I have to write them down in every video, because they all sound so appealing. I am SO glad I found your youtube channel Miranda, it's one of my favorites!

    We don't plan to return to Paris soon but oh, what delightful recommendations these are! You've inspired me to make more library requests (Paris My Sweet, Paris in Bloom, When in French, Lunch in Paris)...what a joy it is to learn more about Paris specifically but the world in words in general. Who couldn't do with beautiful romantic images and stories? You are right...these books are pure spring!

      Those are all lovely choices! I hope you enjoy them too. I agree, I love exploring other places and cultures through books :)

    There are so many of these books I have, and now so many more I want to add to my collection. My next trip to Paris at the end of March, will unfortunately be like the last one; accompanied by 50+ year 8 boys on a school trip. Whilst we don’t do anything that would be on my list to do it is still ‘Ah Paris’ and I wouldn’t miss it. Merci.

      Goodness, what a trip! I hope you can return to Paris blissfully alone (or with a sympathetic companion) at some point haha.

    Such lovely recommendations; thank you! Have you read The Piano Shop on the Left Bank? I started re-reading it this week. I'd forgotten how magical it is.

    • @MirandaMills
      @MirandaMills  4 года назад +3

      That book has been sitting on my shelf for forever, but for some reason I didn't finish it when I started reading it years ago. I must pick it up again!

    Hi Miranda! Loved this video. Although I doubt I will ever get to Paris, I can still dream about it, and you have some recommendations here that I will be looking forward to reading. Was wondering if you have ever read any of Vivian Swift's books? She has written 3 books and they are all illustrated. I have read them each a couple of times and always lose myself in them. I think you would enjoy them. I always look forward to your recommendations. Thanks !!!!

    • @MirandaMills

      These books definitely make for some very good armchair travel! I have just looked up Vivian Swift's books and they look delightful! Thank you for the recommendation xxx
