    There's something about the ambience and smell of a secondhand book shop that once you have experienced it you never forget!And forever more you just cannot ignore them!You are enticed in ...just like the choclatiers! Afterwards,when you get the books home, just like chocolate you bought you cannot help yourself being like an excited child waiting in anticipation to open them!
    We certainly enjoyed accompanying you both on the day trip to Haworth! Thanks so much for inviting each one of us along with you We've all had a splendid time!!🤗

    I am very interested to read Reunion. It is usually impossible to pick a favorite portion of your videos, Miranda, there is always so much to love. But the clip of Donna gazing into the Bookshop window particularly resonated with me. It was like a time slip where we were treated to a moment watching her as a young child enchanted by all the wonders before her in the window. The music was the perfect accompaniment. 💕thank you so much for sharing your day with us.

    I love going along on your trips to beautiful places. Howarth is very pretty. That bookstore was so lovely. But it reminds me that i usually lose my mind when I enter a used bookstore, because I completely forget what authors I'm looking for. Happens every single time. After circling around and around I recover my mind and start looking properly. I also remember I have a little notebook in my purse with my lists. 😂 Love your book finds. Stationary is another thing that sends me. Can't have enough stationary. Thank you Miranda for taking us along. 📚🤗❣️❣️

Early last week I was reading the book”The Life of Charlotte Bronte” of Elizabeth Gaskell and I thought of you…”wow ..she lives in Yorkshire… it would be so good that she would say something about the city of Haworth…and then you made this beautiful surprise….. in the first scene that you Arron the street with rain, she reminded me of a street in Windsor . I don’t believe in coincidences… I think I thought so deeply that it got to you.Thank you very much for this lovely surprise. Last November I was visiting the United Kingdom and also the dear Hartchard bookstore in London. 💐🥰from Brazil 🇧🇷

The mix of books old and new, the relationship with your mum, fresh flowers, stationary, baking, beautiful outings in picturesque landscapes, afternoon tea, vintage clothing. I love most of these things. (Jigsaws also work well with these things). A combination of an audio book, beautiful landscape, hot cuppa and a pretty jigsaw is always nice when I can find the time. I can honestly say that when I watch your vlogs, I am forever pausing to follow the links for all your fab book recommendations. Thank you for always taking the time to link everything you discuss. Not all UA-camrs do. Wishing you much success with your channel this year.

    Hi Miranda and Donna,
    I love love Haworth. I have been a Bronte fan since I was a young girl. Haworth is always on my list of places to visit when in Yorkshire. I hope to come over this year and will look out for the bookshop. Bookshops in England are so wonderful!
    I have never liked rhubarb but my husband's adores it. I do however love to make a fool as a dessert and wonder if I might like it because the sharpness of the rhubarb is softened by the whipping cream? Our rhubarb season however doesn't start until April.
    Have a wonderful week!

I have a beautiful pictorial book of Howarth, their home (parsonage), and surrounding ding countryside. I'm sure you know they were originally from Ireland. There is a book out about that, that I really want to get! Great video as usual, thanks!

    Miranda, thank you for reminding me about Laura Purcell. I read "The Silent Companions" last year and loved it. I just ordered "The House of Whispers" and I hope it will be as much of a page turner. I love, love, love your green dress!!

    Another lovely video. Loved seeing the beautiful bookshop…I wish that we ones like those around where I live. I also think that the recipe you shared looked delicious…our rhubarb season isn’t until late spring/early summer here so I’ll definitely have to remember the recipe to try at that time.

    Your videos makes me calm and think a lot for my UA-cam channel. Such a lovely visit to these beautiful county and streets, you always made me insisting to move to live in UK. For the arts cards, I will choose frames and put them on the walls in my kitchen or my bedroom, they will give the feeling of cottage core vibes. I watch you on a daily basis.

    What a marvellous vlog! I loved all the different parts of it but my favourite one was your trip with your mum to the Brontë's village, simply adorable. My favourite combination: church & vintage bookshop &cosy tea shop. I wish I had gone with you!! The perfect company!!

    Hi Miranda,
    I thoroughly enjoyed your wonderful vlog. I loved your trip to Haworth. I remember going their with my parents when I was a teenager & also went with my Husband for one of our anniversaries.
    The secondhand bookshop you went to looked lovely, I especially liked your Bronte Yearbook & your Anne Bronte poster.
    Thanks again for sharing your journey with us. Xxx

    Another wonderful vlog Miranda, thank you for sharing your trip to Haworth, it is bringing back some great memories of my visits there many years ago (how little it has changed - and it always seems to be raining!). What a wonderful find of the Ronald Blythe book, definitely one I will be keeping an eye out for!

    Oh, I love the Church Mice books! They made me laugh so much as a child. I've been trying to tack down a lot of my favorite childhood picture books that I used to get from our library growing up, and was happy to find the first one in that series recently! This was such a lovely cozy video, thank you!

    Dearest Miranda,
    What a charming visit to Haworth. As an avid Brontë fan myself, it is to easy to picture the sisters making do with rain and trekking over the moors. The village looks really special and your video diary of such and the parsonage (filmed previously) will serve as armchair travel. I would love to go one day! I love how your mum mentioned the second hand book shop was like something out of her dreams! Can there be any greater heaven? What a lovely find! I was so intrigued to hear your thoughts on “Reunion” and I’m delighted to hear it’s one not to miss. I think I’ll be purchasing it for my father also, incredibly early Father’s Day gifting. As with your delightful recipes, Valentine’s gift guide, I am left feeling cozy and happy!
    Thank you for sharing your beautiful adventures with us! ❤️

    I spent a little money when watching you this evening, Miranda! Found online a used copy of My Dearest Mouse so grabbed it straightaway! Also bought a pack of cards from Vanessa Bowman - they're all so lovely. Can I add that my copy of The Bronte Yearbook has the same coloured cover on the front as on the back. As yours was blue on the front, do you think it might have changed to blue if it was displayed in a shop window and the sunlight got to it? I've seen books go that way before in shop windows. Or maybe yours is just different from mine. Lovely to see you again.

    • @MirandaMills
      @MirandaMills  Рік тому +2

      Lovely purchases! I think mine is just different: the palette is purples and blues. It's hard to tell though. Anyway, both very pretty so I'm not complaining! 📚💕 (Note: I've just gone and looked at it again, and I think the front is faded! I rather like the effect though!)

    I was wondering if you have the time at some point, to make a video on children's books you love, specifically picture books or for under 6 year olds...
    Thanks again and have a lovely week!

    Miranda che meraviglia la libreria di libri vintage! 🥰
    Vicino a me non ne esistono e gli unici libri vintage li vado a scovare in alcuni negozi di usato ma raramente si trovano libri così belli e se lo trovi non sempre sono in buono stato . Mi hai fatto tornare la voglia di rileggere Jane Eyre e altri libri di Bronte.
    Molto belli anche i biglietti sempre con stampe una più bella dell'altra! Buona giornata!

    Reunion sounds great. Medusa is a great book. Jessie is such a wonderful writer. I need to get to more Purcell. I think I started with the wrong book of hers, Bone China. I love Haworth. Stayed there with friends for a long weekend (actually over a decade) and had the best time. Need to do it again. That bookshop looked amazing. Oooh and a rhubarb fool, rhubarb is one of my favourite flavours. And scents actually. Lovely video as always.

    • @MirandaMills
      @MirandaMills  Рік тому

      I highly recommend Reunion, Simon! It's an amazing read. 'The Corset' is my favourite Purcell - would recommend starting with that one or 'The Silent Companions.' I'm very excited by all the early forced rhubarb! Can't wait to use it in more recipes!! Have a lovely start to the week xxx

    Thank you, Miranda, for another lovely vlog! Laundry is beautifully folded 😜, and I am completely relaxed! When I moved to Maine from California a few years ago a friend of mine gave me a rhubarb plant and every year I admire its stems....and that is it! Thanks to you this will be the year I might actually do something with them! I might take the first part of your recipe and add it to my cheesecake instead of the lemon that I usually use, although yours looked mouth-watering. (I wonder what rhubarb cheesecake would taste like?). Love your book and card selections and now desperately wish my Mom and I had stopped at that Hatchard & Daughters bookshop during our trip last Autumn! Next time! Happy Sunday🌷

    • @MirandaMills
