Stocking Stuffer Gift Guide: • Christmas Book Gift Gu... - Zábava
I don’t have any bookish people in my life. So I’ll be buying some of these for myself :)
Good plan! 😉📚🎄
Wow what a wonderful selection ! Thank you for taking the time to assemble it. ❤️
So glad you enjoyed it, Nadine! Thank you ❤️
I am beyond thrilled to have found you! Your taste in books is impeccable. I am a confirmed bibliophile but you have introduced me to an entire world of books that I never knew existed! We are kindred spirits where books are concerned. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Thank you so much! That’s so kind of you to say ❤️📚
Oh I want them all! Thank you Miranda for all the wonderful ideas. 💕
So glad you enjoyed these recommendations, Sandy! Thank you xxx
Stunning books and such a cozy and informative video. Thank you!
Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it 😊🎄📚
Miranda I am new subscriber and I just adore your channel. I immediately searched your christmas videos... I have taken so many of your recommendations already. My library request stack is full and I am absolutely loving the audio version of Norwich's English christmas. Thank you!!
I'm so happy to hear that! Thank your for subscribing 🎄 📚
Wow. I want all of these books! I have completed almost all my Christmas shopping for others and books bought were recommendations, laregely, from you prior to this Vlog. Honestly, I think need to get more bookshelves. Fabulous job🌲🌲🌲🌲
Thanks so much, Shelley! I’m forever running out of bookshelf space myself!! 📚😊🎄
So generous of you to share all these wonderful recommendations Miranda. Thank you. I do love your Christmas gift guides xx
I love your lists so much. Stunning books!! You're a good picker-outer. Lol. Enjoy all your videos. Like you don't know that by now. 😉. See ya Friday. 📚👍💕
Thanks so much Diane! 😊❤️📚🎄
The book about fabric appeals to me, thank you Miranda
What a fabulous array of books to choose from! I’ve written several titles down &, what I don’t receive at Christmas, hopefully I can find at the library. Your delightful descriptions of books urge me to read them all! Such a lovely snowflake pin…seasonal jewelry is so much fun to pick & wear. Many thanks, Miranda, & happy holiday reading. ❄️🎄📚
Thank you very much, Christine! So glad you enjoyed this video. Hope you get lots of lovely books for Christmas! I pull out this brooch every winter - it’s a real favourite of mine & it always makes me feel festive 😊❄️
Enjoyed this so much, Miranda! Wonderful recommendations! The Feast was one of my favorite books I've read this year thanks to you! 🎄🇬🇧📚🥰
Yay! I’m so happy to hear that, thank you Lora! Xxx
Hi from another new subscriber. I live in Germany but grew up in Yorkshire. I stumbled across your channel on Friday and really love it - my list of notes and ‘books to buy” is already ridiculously long! I’ve heard you mention Tea and Tattle and interviews you’ve carried out with various authors in a number of your videos and wonder if they are still available to listen to and, if so, where I can find them. Thanks for this wonderful treasure trove!
This was such a beautifully curated selection of books, Miranda. I recently sent the Miss Dior book to my sister for her birthday. (She is a big reader of non-fiction.) Of course, I have my eye on many of the books for myself, in particular the gorgeous edition of Little Women. I'm currently re-reading my little paperback and have fallen in love with it once again. Such a well written, wise novel about family and learning to be true to oneself.
Thank you, Nancy! Little Women is a real favourite of mine too; I’m so thrilled to have this gorgeous edition ❤️
Such a great, extensive list. Loved the little jingle breaks! I saw many books I want and some I already have from earlier recommended posts. Looking forward to some serious reading time. Thank you for this recent work. It was time well spent for me.
So glad you enjoyed it, Shanne - thank you! xxx
So many fabulous book ideas in every category!! I am definitely ordering several. It's a real honor to be included!
Yay! Thank you! It was such a pleasure to include your beautiful 'Little Women,' Barbara! xxx
Wonderful selection Miranda! ☺️✨✨✨
Such a lovely video beautiful books👌🏾
Thank you 📚💫
I must admit I'm eyeing most of these more as gifts for myself. The Feast and Seed to Dust already top my list of 2021 favorite reads. Your infectious joy and eloquence could convince me to fall in love with a textbook on physics or some other topic that eluded me in school. Thank you for spoiling us with so many glorious titles. 🎄🦌❤
Thank you so much for your lovely comment, Pamela! So glad those two books have been such favourites of yours too this year ❤️
A-maz-ing - thank you ☺️
ty for not only listing each book but also the links so awesome for you to do that . . my favorite are poetry books 📚 . . enjoy watching your book shopping/haul videos you and your mom are adorable . . just subscribed ♥️🙋♀️
I'm at home waiting to get a covid test tomorrow and this video has cheered me up no end. I must say Miranda, yourself and Donna gave been a godsend this year. I don't know how I would have kept the spirit up some days if it wasn't for your wonderful videos. ❤️❤️
💕
Thank you for your kind words! Hope you're ok! xxx
Such a lovely video, thank you! I'm actually re reading Little Women and my tatty copy leaves a lot to be desired compared to that beautiful edition. So many of these books look amazing... The Elizabeth Barrett Browning biography sounds especially good, and A Poet for Every Day of the Year is tempting me very much! The Comfort Book is a really great recommendation considering the state the world is in right now. I must must must get the The Adventures of Miss Barbara Pym, but I asked for The Feast this year after seeing you review it in one of your wrap ups, so looking forward to that. Love your brooch by the way :)
Thank you so much, Emma! All those books you’ve highlighted are so fabulous. I hope you get lots of gorgeous bookish gifts this winter 😊🎁🎄📚
Miranda!!! I love all of these books, I’m so excited once again to buy myself lots of books!!!! I’m a FOODIE🥰… I don’t know if I’ve ever told you that before and when you held up the Dorie Greenspan book, I paused the video and ran (well a fast walk) to get my Dorie Greenspan book titled “BAKING CHEZ MOI” recipes from her Paris home.. but side note now I only look through my non vegan cookbooks..Your Videos make me so happy 😊… tell Donna I said hello 💕
Yay for the foodies! So glad you’re a Dorie fan too, Kiki! I love her recipes (and her adorable Paris flat!!) 😊📚🎄
What a great selection! I've seen quite a few I'd like myself 😉. Definitely be putting some on my wishlist, but you've also given me some great ideas on what to get my mum too. Thank you!
Thank you Emma! So glad this was helpful! Xxx
Oh I have been eyeing up so many of these books over the last month, and your video is the extra nudge I need to take the plunge and get some of them at last. Thank you so much for putting together such a wonderful collection of them for this gift guide. I’ve also been admiring your festive jumper and brooch - can I ask where they are from? They’ve really put me in the festive spirit!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the gift guide. My sweater is an old one from Toast & the brooch is a vintage one I bought several years ago 📚❄️💫
Yes! I bought The Feast this summer of 2023 and enjoyed it. Must pick up and Finish it though as youve recommended today, year late in this vlog.
I am late this year in starting my Christmas shopping - this video has helped to give me some ideas for gifts! There’s also quite a few going on my own personal wish list 😀 Thank you Miranda !
I'm so glad! Thank you Lucy. Hope you get lots of lovely books for Christmas! xxx
I would love to see a video about stocking fillers! You have introduced me to so many books which are now on my wish list. However, you have also introduced me to other items which would make lovely gifts (Elizabeth Harbour decorations) and I am sure you would have so many good ideas for lovely stocking fillers. ❤️
Just realised that you have a video of stocking fillers 🤣 oops
Hello Miranda,
I am listening to a very cosy Christmas Story and I think you might like it too. It‘s a german middlegrade Book (or maybe YA) about a Girl in a Castle in the Mountains. It Is friendly and cosy and has some crime in it too. It‘s by Kerstin Gier „Castle in the Clouds“.
Have yourself a very nice first Advent- greetings from Germany! Ann
This is such a wonderful list of books! Thank you so much!
I've loved both this and the stocking stuffer videos. Such wonderful gift giving recommendations, and some I definitely will buy for myself. I was happy to see the Petersham Nurseries book and Stamps & Stamps on the list, as I have them both and they are just stunning. The Owl and the Nightingale is definitely going on my list, as well as several others, both fiction and non-fiction. I love how you thought of something for every taste and interest. Fabulous recommendations, Miranda, and thank you so much!
So glad you enjoyed my recommendations! Thank you for your kind words xxx
Hi Miranda, a wonderful selection and so many great gift ideas, thank you so much, Teresa 📚🌲
Thank you so much, Teresa! Glad you enjoyed it! xxx

Thank you so much! So glad you enjoy them! xxx

Very helpful video thank you !
Ahh thank you for this video! I have way too many books on my wishlist and this is adding even more titles to it haha! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
Thank you! And to you! 🎄❤️📚
What a fantastic choice of gift ideas. I have bought and read so many of your book recommendations that I have had to buy a new bookcase!
Being a nature lover, I wonder if you have read Nan Shepherd's "The Living Mountain"? The Folio Society edition is absolutely stunning.
Thanks very much! Yes I have, although I don’t have the Folio edition. I’m sure it’s gorgeous ❤️💫📚
Очень атмосферно
You have really outdone yourself Miranda ... thank you so much for an amazing video! I love your recommendations and how diverse the topics are - I want to read them all! Also, adding in the perfume was lovely - can't wait to try the new fragrance. Blessings to you during this holiday season!
Thank you very much- so glad you enjoyed this gift guide! 🎄📚🎁
