    Hi Molly, I discovered your channel a year ago. In a world of vast consumerism your corner of the internet is a welcome respite. I find your videos very calming and enjoy the beautiful scottish scenery. Enjoy your break and I hope you and your family (including Sky) have a happy christmas and new year.

    I am currently reading "Motherwell" by the late Deborah Orr. She was a journalist and columnist for the Guardian, the "i" and others. At 30 she was editor of the Guardian weekend magazine so a high achiever from a working class background. She was born in Motherwell to an English mother and a Scots father. I have a connection with Motherwell as my wife's family comes from there. It's a difficult yet compelling read as she had a sometimes difficult relationship with her mum, was bullied at school but is ultimately uplifting as she goes to University and has a stellar career in journalism. Her life was tragically cut short by cancer but what a talent.

      Read that book last year and it really moved me. Think about it often and has had a very deep lasting impression on me. It’s now on my bookshelf as a keeper as I cant seem to part with it yet. Hope you enjoy reading.

    Thanks for another lovely video Molly. If you haven't read it, you should check out the book Winter Solstice by Rosamunde Pilcher. It's a lovely read about an older (slightly eccentric) lady who moves up to northern Scotland unexpectedly. The characters are so wonderful and there's so much description of old houses, snowy scenes, cups of coffee and nice food.

    NO! You can’t leave during December! You will be SO missed. And the adult voice says Bravo! Way to practice slow living and self-care. I am currently reading Appalachian Daughter. Set in US south and reminds me of my childhood.

    Hi Molly. Congratulations for your first year of self-employement. I have been watching your videos for two years and really enjoy your content and perspective. Thank you. Self-care is so important and I think it is very wise to give yourself a whole month off. You deserve it! Have a wonderful break.

    I thoroughly recommend The Shadow of the Wind: The Cemetery of Forgotten Books 1. It’s set in Barcelona and this is a brief summary obscure and forgotten titles that have long gone out of print. To this library, a man brings his 10-year-old son Daniel one cold morning in 1945. Daniel is allowed to choose one book from the shelves and pulls out 'The Shadow of the Wind' by Julian Carax.
    But as he grows up, several people seem inordinately interested in his find.

    I would recommend books by Mark Boyle, The moneyless man and The way home. They are both memoirs, the first is an account of living with no money for a year, the second is living with no modern conveniences for a year. Very easy to read and thought provoking.
