The Comfort Reading Tag

The Comfort Reading tag!

Tag Prompts:

1. The Kettle's On: A book of steadfast comfort, always there for you, makes any day better, like a cup of tea (or your favorite warm drink).

2. Grandmother's Quilt: A book that reminds you of a loved one, or a comforting book that was given to you or read aloud to you by someone dear.

3. Warm Spices: A book with particularly vivid prose or imagery. A story comforting in its richness, depth, or vibrance.

4. Candlelight: A book that keeps you going or encourages you when things feel dark.

5. Laugh-Medicine: A book that makes you laugh out loud or grin widely, coming to the rescue on the gloomiest days.

6. In Bed All Day: You've got your warm drink, a cozy blanket (maybe grandmother's quilt.) What do you read when you're curled up in bed all day? (Or for a couple of hours, anyway.)

7. Endless Comfort: A book that brings you solace no matter how many times you reread it.

8. Portable Hope: A book that restores your faith in humanity, faith in life, faith in yourself. A book that says, "It's going to be okay. The world is full of good things, and tomorrow will be better."

9. A Basket for Your Neighbor: Just as it's lovely to be comforted by books, it can be lovely to pass the comfort along. Imagining you were putting together a cozy comfort basket for your neighbor (or friend, loved one, take your pick), which book(s) would you include?

10. A Walk in the Woods: Though we'd like to stay curled up indoors with our books forever (or, at least, I would), we've got to venture into the world again sometime. A walk in the woods always helps me feel refreshed (unless I happen upon a spider or something, but let's not think about that). Tell us about a book with beautiful nature writing, or a book that restores your peace.

Great tag! Several titles I have not heard of. I like the way you hold on to your older copies. Agatha Christie books are such a comfort read for me! 😊📚

That video was fun. Delightful. There are quite a few books I will have to consider reading after watching this video. Three Men and a Boat is hilarious dry British humor. The cheese story, the dog in the river I was in stitches. Enjoy.

Hi Gina, The only book I’ve read in your recommendation and this is Miss Read Which I found through book tube. So thank you so much for all the new cozy books I can explore, Aloha

This was so lovely 😊 Thank you. Also I love how you film videos in "one sitting" just sit down and start to talk without any jump cuts or anything. That is something I struggle with when do a "mistake" when talking and then record some parts again, but the way you do it is very "simple" but in the best way possible, very comforting 😊

The Babbling Bee here, and I so loved your rendition of this tag! 💐 I've got a list going of all the books people are choosing! Gonna end up with an epic list of comfort reads, hopefully! 📚 I should add any Comfort Reading Tag videos to a playlist, maybe?? (If I can figure out how to do it, heh). I need to get my hands on The House By the Sea immediately!!

Great tag responses, as always! I don’t think I’m a comfort reader but I love hearing different perspectives.

Some great picks Gina. I love to watch an Agatha Christie movie or adaptation, but I’ve never read any of her books, so now I feel I must. Will also keep a look out for Bird Cottage and May’s diaries. They sound like relaxing reads. Ps love the lipstick 💄

What a delightful tag. I adore Wind in the Willows as well! I found an Illustrated Junior Library edition at a book sale a few years ago that I absolutely cherish. Have you read The River Bank by Kij Johnson as well? If not, I highly recommend it, it's a beautiful little book of updated stories set there, but with a couple of lady characters.

always interested in May Sarton. She occupies the same page as Madeleine L'Engle for me <3
