November now be nice
Hold off the snow and ice
The last blazing leaves
falling from the trees
add colour and spice
to dreary days
we find ways
as it gets colder and
winter gets bolder
to stay warm with family and friends
reading until winter ends

That's a lovely, descriptive poem of this time of year. Thanks for starting our month off so wonderfully, Magdelanye.

thanks Petra
lets aim for wonderful.

I have been to the library! Got 3 books, 2 fiction by authors I have liked a lot, Alicia Elliott and Xochitl Gonzalez and one nf by Marilynne Robinson. Until i get my own place I have to really disciline myself.

From Sunny Mediterranean
To Cloudy Cambridge
How November differs

in one day, rain, wind, clouds, now sun

so whats up with our little group?
I am missing you

One good thing to share: Anne Michaels won the Booker for her recent publication 'held'
As soon as I read about it I raced to my library page and put a hold on ir and lo! it was available. It's not an easy read and requires a readers alert attention but I loved it.
Amazing a book like this gets the recognition it deserves

What to read for the season ....... thinking

have you read the black london series yet? If not, Im recommending it to you again

well, I'm not sure how wonderful November was but finally at the last minute I managed to manifest, if only for a limited time, my dream cottage by the sea. Setting new patterns for my time here. Instead of going back to bed with my tea and a book, I dress warm and take my tea to the beach to wait for the sunrise. Now THIS feels like vacation!

That sounds lovely, Magdelanye! I hope you can stay in the cottage for months to come. What a lovely way to start each day. My dream property would have an ocean view. Access to a beach would be a big bonus.

nice to hear from you Petra! This is a winter short-term rental until April 1

I'm around, but not reading much so I've got little to post.

You've got a snug little cottage by the sea for the winter. What a treat. Enjoy every day there.

thank you Petra
now would be a good time to visit me!

Ice...
this is the season
with plenty of reason
to stay in bed and read
with some cake and tea
we are utterly free
nothing more we need
