I’d love to hear Patrick Stewart read A Christmas Carol.
And to celebrate the new year…
Here’s a bit from a lovely old (1850!) poem:
“Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true…
Ring out a slowly dying cause,
And ancient forms of party strife;
Ring in the nobler modes of life,
With sweeter manners, purer laws…
Ring out false pride in place and blood,
The civic slander and the spite;
Ring in the love of truth and right,
Ring in the common love of good.”
And a toast: Here’s to a year of wonderful reads and small joys!

Thanks for sharing. It was fun to participate and jump-start my writing. Also thanks for the reminder to check out both Pinnochio and Idris as a genie.

Happy New Year, may 2023 bring you great blessings. On Christmas Eve we watched a BBC production of Simon Callow reading A Christmas Carol, I found it so much easier to understand and enjoy compared to reading the book.

I hope you have a wonderful 2023! I think most of my movie watching this past year was re-watches of old favorites with a handful of new ones scattered in here and there. I am terrible about keeping track of the movies I watch. Thank you for sharing your year in books post! I enjoyed looking through all the books you read last year! Happy New Year!

I’m wondering about that new Pinocchio movie. The original always made me sad. Happy New Year!

Those books look quite dark! I haven’t seen that version of Pinocchio before, but I love the imagery, so I’m sure I would enjoy it.

Happy New Year! I just joined in your BookWorms post and look forward to stopping by more often now that I’ve found your blog. I would love to hear Patrick Stewart read Dickens – sounds perfect! I watched a little over their shoulders as my daughter and her boyfriend watched Pinocchio last week and thought it was good – but dark!
