    I can’t tell you have comforting I find your videos. They feel just like a warm hug. Even if they do leave me craving some baked goods afterwards. 😂 How I wish I lived near a cafe run by you. I must also say that the book recommendations are always so intriguing. I want to read all of these! Thanks for sharing your content with us. ❤

      Haha, yes, I've been on a roll lately when it comes to good books, so there was a lot to recommend - and there are plenty of winter books on my bookshelf anyway ❄️📚 I was already thinking about doing a second part of "9 Enchanting winter tales" because it was really hard to choose just nine books from all my books with this genre 😄🌨

    Hello my beautiful Nessa❤
    It is such a delight to see you bring a beautiful story to life! I feel like I am really in the coffee shop relaxing while reading books and having delicious pastries. Very very very beautiful video my love. Thank you for making us happy. I send you my big fat bear hugs and kisses.

    I had to share your channel with my facebook friends. I told them that I have to watch as least three times because there is sooo much to see and note and hear. My TBR pile is higher because of your suggestions. And I have to get something sweet and whipped creamy looking at your baked goodies. How do you stay so thin?! Thank you for your great suggestions. (I also had to make a notebook to record your titles. I love good reasons to make books.) 🍰🍵

    • @amomentofwonder

      Wow, you make your own notebooks? That's so awesome - I love beautiful notebooks but never thought of making one myself! 📚🥰

    This is the perfect video for winter nights! ❄📚 Your selection of Gothic reads sounds incredibly atmospheric-ideal for curling up with a hot drink while the cold wind howls outside. I love how you’ve tied the haunting beauty of these stories to the season’s vibe. Can’t wait to discover new eerie tales and revisit some classics from your list. Thanks for the wonderful recommendations! 🖤✨

    Lovely and cosy and delicious looking as always. I actually found quite a few books I wanted to read in this list, so thank you very much for sharing. I love Agatha Christie type murder mysteries, not too cosy, but rather dark and mysterious :)

    • @amomentofwonder
      @amomentofwonder  2 месяца назад

      That's exactly how I feel, Agatha Christie's murder mysteries just have a very special atmosphere, and I'm always happy when I find these vibes in other authors' books too 📚❤️ I'm glad that there were a few interesting books for you in the video 🤗❄️

    I read Pine this year and absolutely loved it! A Haunting in the Arctic sounds very interesting.

    • @amomentofwonder
      @amomentofwonder  2 месяца назад

      Yes, Pine was an absolute pleasure to read! I almost let some bad reviews put me off (they said it was boring and meaningless) and I'm so glad I bought it after all! 📚🌲

    Aside from the setting, my favorite part about your videos is, that you recommend books that are new to me. Way too many winter book videos seem to rely on the old favorites that I have already read.

    • @amomentofwonder
      @amomentofwonder  2 месяца назад

      Thank you my dear! I always try to keep a balance between popular and well-known books (such as "The Bear and the Nightingale" in the last video) and new, rather unknown books. I'm glad to hear that works well and that you were able to discover new books! 🤗📚

    Way to make me want sweets first thing in the morning.
    The Winter People sounds the most interesting of these to me. I am not one who really reads this genre of book, but I like a good mystery. Thanks for inspiring me!

  • @claremiller9979
    @claremiller9979 2 месяца назад +1

    My 9 year old daughter loves watching your videos, these ones were a bit scary for her but she insisted to watch to the end anyway 😊
    She has requested if you could do some young adult/middle grade books - any genre, she just wants more to read (she's reading Hedgewitch right now and loving it!)

    • @amomentofwonder
      @amomentofwonder  2 месяца назад

      I don't think I have enough kids/middle grade books left that haven't been featured in the Brews & Books videos already, so i won't be able to to a video on this genre 🤔📚
      I hope a short list does the trick ❤️
      - Author Sophie Anderson writes wonderfully magical and fantastical books. I already mentioned "The Girl who speaks bear" and "The Snow Girl" in the last video as perfect tales for the winter time, but I also read and loved "The House with the chicken legs". I could imagine that her other books are similarly wholesome.
      - Phyllis Reynolds Naylor has a series of books about two friends who suspect their old neighbour is a witch. The story is a touch dark and occasionally a tad creepy (from a childs perspective) but I loved it as a child and still sometimes re-read the books today. Volume one is called "The Witch's Sister."
      - Kiersten White has a (currently) 5 part series about twins who solve mysteries on summer holiday destonations. I featured "Camp Creepy" in my Summerween video because it was a good fit, but the whole series is recommended. It's called "The Sinister Summer Series" and part one is called "Wretched Waterpark."
      - "The Grace of Wild Things" is kind of a retelling/ heavily based on "Anne on Green Gables" but with witches and magic, and in my view a very cosy book that i found very comforting.
      - "Kiki's Delivery Service", the novel the popular Ghibli film was based on, is a wonderfully gentle and imaginative story.
      These are all the ones I can think of off the top of my head, I hope there's something in there that your daughter might like, even if it's not in video form 🤗 I hope she continues to enjoy reading Hedgewitch! 🧙‍♀️

      Oh yes, please give Laura Purcell's books a chance, I would love to hear your opinion on them 🤗📚
      I'm curious how you will like Atalanta, and whether we agree on the ending (I find it very conciliatory and almost poetic) or whether you find it sad/ feel different about it. Happy reading! ❤️
