Yes to the LIW books--Shores of Silver Lake is one of my favorites--the Garth Williams illustrations are great in all of them, but exceptionally good in this book. I love Caddie Woodlawn--reread it about 10 years ago--so I really should read Winter Cottage. Thanks for the recommendation. Reading Lolita in Tehran was good, of course. Another Shore is appealing to this wannabe time traveler. True confessions time - I know many bloggers I follow loved Book Lovers, but I quit reading just over half way through. For some reason, I found the characters so annoying.<br /><br />Happy reading and happy new year!JaneGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094501834387622997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3013114232214923198.post-73933875834175618602023-01-09T01:16:11.116-05:002023-01-09T01:16:11.116-05:00Winter Cottage looks like a very appealing book.

I wonder if they would still hold up if I were to reread one of them today? And yes, I am thinking more of snow and winter as well. I do envy Kate her beach weather, though, seeing that today is especially grey and wet here in London. stargazerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17865559557129972015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3013114232214923198.post-19906082352536549942023-01-07T11:59:08.929-05:002023-01-07T11:59:08.929-05:00Yes, I've read Beach Reads (thought it was ...Yes, I've read Beach Reads (thought it was 'Ok') and the two Ingalls Wilder books which I loved to bits.
