The best way to start the summer is definitely with Miranda's video! 💐🌻Big Thank you for the new commonplace book freebie, I definitely got inspired for commonplacing myself! Also, I ordered a book about David Hockney's landscape paintings recently and can't wait to read it, it looks like such a summery read and summery artist to me!

Thank you so much for your wonderful support, Natalia! So kind of you! I really appreciate it ❤️ I’m very glad you like the commonplace book. I love David Hockney’s artwork, and it means even more to me after moving to Yorkshire. That book sounds fab! Enjoy! Xxx

Thank you for the wonderful video and your book recommendations! After watching, I've purchased some of those books, so I can keep up with you and fellow readers!

Miranda, I always love ALL of your recommendations. Just my kind of list. Always unusual finds and not the expected: best sellery, most popular, current reads so often featured on many BookTube channels. I am not saying they should disappear. No. There are so many great reads that having a variety of suggestions, beyond recent/au current published books, means someone like me is sure to find another "must have" book to add on to the endless conveyor belt stack of reads in their possession. lol. Enjoy your break. And thank you for always bringing charm, enthusiasm and sparkling wit to each of your vids. I appreciate you and your mum. Luv from across the puddle.

I can’t believe I have never read “Goodbye Mr Chips”. Thank you for all your recommendations!

Thanks! That fishing book just might be a great Father's Day gift!

I love your vids. 'Goodbye Mr Chips' is a lovely book. It reminds me a bit of 'Its a Wonderful Life' in that the protagonists a reminded of how much they have given to the world and how they have influenced the people around them. A lesson for all of us. Thank you Miranda. Your channel always makes ne feel good. You are such a joyful person.

Goodbye, Mr. Chips reminds me of the book (also a movie with Jennifer Jones) called Good Morning, Miss Dove, about a schoolteacher whose life, because of her long career, was much fuller than most realized.
