Cozy Cold Books for a Magical Winter🎄 // The Recs Room Ep.5

this book turned into such a fantastic time it was so cozy it was so humorous it was so quirky one of the quirkiest books i've ever read and certainly one of the most charming books as well

this was a beautiful story and it just it's one that celebrates imagination and kindness above all else and really hails the power of stories and make-believe and letting yourself escape into another world for a little while

this first one is quite the big recommendation but i think it is well worth it is an extremely rewarding book and i absolutely adore it with all my heart

heather dixon wrote one of my favorite young adult novels which is entwined which is a retelling of the 12 dancing princesses by the brothers grimm i would also read that book around christmas i think it's perfect

i'm also so thrilled with the aspect of this book in that it is a pseudo retelling and takes a lot of inspiration and a lot of ideas from paradise lost by john milton which i adore

i actually read it during the winter months as well and it was such a beautiful companion to have

i was in love with the writing i was in love with the realistic portrayal of grief and loss that these young people experience in their lives

i actually read this year in february and i loved it was really good
