Benison is local to me and my home city here in the Canadian prairies - he has written a Christmas series I'm sure you'd enjoy - The Father Christmas Mysteries [3] of them! Find them on goodreads then search your library systems - maybe a request will bring them in? <br />HapPy seasonal Reading!Faith Hope and Cherryteahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170392449995588653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7727638102193854145.post-41840619945709055612014-12-09T11:13:14.331-08:002014-12-09T11:13:14.331-08:00Hi Ruth... hope hubby feels better soon.

And guess what I found? A stack of Miss Read books! I took 4 because taking them all seemed gluttonous but I'm thinking I might go back at the end of the week and see if any are still there. So there is a bit of serendipity for us. I am starting with the Christmas stories - Village Christmas & The Christmas Mouse.

I have the Miss Read (Fairacre) books, but most of them are newer editions. I must read more Goudge because I agree with you that she's a very good writer. I'm reading an excellent book by DE Stevenson now called The Young Clementina. I also have read all the Karon books except her latest. Well, I haven't read the ones that came after Mitford, but want to. And Winter Solstice is a favorite. I hope to read it again one day, but there's so little time for reading, and so many books that I have yet to read for the first time. You are indeed a kindred spirit!

I like to listen to the audio version of a Child's Christmas in Wales. It's a favorite gift for me to give also.

A couple years ago our book club read some Louise Penny Christmas mysteries, which I really enjoyed.<br />And yes, no one should be without a library card! :)Deborah Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04366855994841922862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7727638102193854145.post-52684307832442687952014-12-04T06:14:52.889-08:002014-12-04T06:14:52.889-08:00My goodness, Ruth, you are indeed a voracious read...My goodness, Ruth, you are indeed a voracious reader! I like to read to but I don't usually re-read books, other than reference type books. I have a Kindle too and I get two emails every day with offers of free Kindle books. If you wish to have those emails come to you, email me and I'll give you the information.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792341123595520130noreply@blogger.com
