This video got suggested to me by RUclips and I am so glad it did. I’m looking forward to heading back to more of your backlist as new videos come in. Wilkie is brilliant. One of my favs. Those Icelandic bookmarks are ace.
Thank you for such lovely words. I’ve been subscribed to your channel for a while and have enjoyed a number of videos. I’m looking forward to getting my teeth into more Collins in time, although next up on my Classics list is Dickens’ Our Mutual Friend. I do love the bookmarks, may have to get more when I go back next year 🤣
Very cool book collection! 😍 I also really love Viking/Medieval time but haven’t read nearly enough on it. I would love to see a video more on your pagan books & just anything about that you’d want to share (it’s always interested me though I admit I do not have much knowledge on the subject!). New to your channel here, I’ll look back at your other vids maybe you’ve already covered these things! ❤
Thanks for watching. I definitely need to do some videos on the Viking/paganism books at some point. Just need to get around to reading or re-reading them and finding time to do so 😊
I've been watching you for a while and really enjoy your channel, love your discussionon the classics. This was a great video, love your fascination with Iceland, my home 😊. The recommendation above, Eva Björg Ægisdóttir's book is excellent, she is fast becoming my favourite crime author.
Thanks for the recommendation, I’m gonna check out her books. Crime thriller set in Iceland sounds like something I would love. I only went to Iceland for the first time 2 years ago but have been 4 times since and I’m in love with the whole island. The beautiful scenery and wonderful people makes me want to live there someday. 😊
Love this video. I know you've got quite a TBR already but after watching this I thought you might like the nordic noir genre. Eva Bjorg Aegisdottir's The Creak On The Stairs is the first in an Icelandic series, at the cosy end of the scale. Then there is Stieg Larsson's superb Millennium Trilogy. I've just bought Weyward this week, looking forward to reading that, love the cover. Though my own TBR is big so much to choose from, so much to look forward to. I donated most of my books to Oxfam and then regretted it so have been re buying read books and buying new books for the past year. Not getting much new stuff read as I re read things like Jane Eyre that I first read when I was about 20 - still great decades later. I am currently reading The Confessions of Frannie Langton by Sara Collins, 1800's historical fiction.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the recommendations. There’s quite a few there that sound really interesting so I’ll be looking them up for sure, love the sound of Nordic noir. Will also check out the Sara Collins as I do enjoy fiction set in the 1800s 😊
Good to get to know more about you and your reading habits! I found it a bit hard to get into the first part of Cuddy as well but came to love it as time progressed and more characters were introduced. The Chronicles of Barsetshire series is wonderful - The Warden can be a bit dry at times but is ultimately great especially towards the end in a London section. I still have a couple more books from that series to read. Hope you enjoy! 📚
Thank you. I’m really enjoying Cuddy now and even on reflection enjoyed the first section, although whilst reading found it a little jarring switching between different types of prose. I’ve heard on a few videos The Warden can be a bit dry so I’m fully prepared to keep with it in the hopes of better things to come further on in the series 😆

@@Bryndisdaugtherofgunnar 🤣 every time I go to Iceland I try and pick up one of the Yule Lad figurines, but Gryla is definitely my favourite
