November reads

 Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling


Listened to on the Libby App

Released in 2015

Narrated by Jim Dale

Junior fantasy, magic, series

Recommend: yes

I've read and seen all the Harry Potter books and movies, but I have never listened to a narration. This was a welcome listen as I was working and I realized I had forgotten many of the details that the movies leave out. The books have many rich details that make the story and the characters have a depth that reminded me how much I enjoy reading this series.  


A Christmas Memory by Richard Paul Evans


Read my daughter's copy

Published in 2022

Realistic fiction, Christmas, childhood

Recommend: yes

While at my daughter's house for Thanksgiving I picked up this book she was given and read it in an afternoon. This is a bit biographical as the author explains and tells the story of a Christmas of his youth and how amid some really hard times he was able to feel hope and love from others. I really enjoyed the quick inspriational read.
