My reading lately has been re-reads. Comfort reads.
I reread The Blue Castle, by L.M. Montgomery, Sabriel, by Garth Nix, The Witch of Blackbird Pond, by Elizabeth George Speare and Sorcery and Cecelia by Wrede and Stevermer. I think this is my normal comfort reads time of year. I hunker in and knit a lot, read things that make me feel cozy and safe and, yes, here in the midwest, warm.
Sorry I don’t have a lot of recent new reads. Busy with the nephews and niece, hanging out with my siblings and baking pumpkin biscotti. Maybe some of you have some recent read to share with me?

That sounds fun. I haven’t done any re-reading in ages.
I do have one, courtesy of my mom. It’s a YA fantasy called The Amaranth Enchantment, by Julie Berry. Fairy-tale-ish and reminiscent of Shannon Hale’s The Goose Girl or a Diana Wynne Jones book, with nice pacing and fun characters.
Awesome. I put it down on my to-reads, and my library list. :-) A perfect selection – a potential new comfort read.
