    Your asking Alexa to play Classic FM also triggered it to play on my Kindle 😅 couldn't work out where the Christmas music was coming from and thought it was your background soundtrack. I really enjoy your Vlogmas videos; I hope you and David have a happy Christmas (and happy first anniversary when it comes).

    My festive bookish question - if you could have a festive prequel or sequel to any book, which would it be? The same to David but which film? So excited that you are doing vlogmas this year again!

    My festive question is if you had to eat Christmas Dinner at a literary character's house, who would you choose and what would you want to eat? I can't get enough of your outfit at the end, those white tights!! 😍

    I’d love to give Charles Dickens a modern day Christmas and would love to receive from him a Victorian Christmas ❤❤❤

    I would like to exchnange gifts with Jane Eyre. I would give her a spa day to spend with her cousins Diana and Mary. Think she'd like a day of pampering and girlie bonding. In return, I would like one of her paintings (because it would be personal and mean something).

    Lauren, your crossed arms ... google says - By folding one or both arms across the chest, a barrier is formed that is an unconscious attempt to block out what we perceive as a threat or undesirable circumstances. I always think it assists in tucking in closing in the heat! I have recently bought a few of your suggested books so carry on, we need to support our local shops ... the sofa looks great, excellent colour ...

    Love the vlog! My question is ‘Which fictional character do you think would be top of Santa’s naughty list and why?’

    David’s Disney decs consigned to the office, LOL ( new sofa aesthetic is 👌) 😂❤

    1) You are absolutely adorable and your outfit for the choir concert is tops. You are inspiring me to dress with a bit more fun and flair.
    2) I would want to exchange gifts with Laura Ingalls Wilder. I would gift her a tie blanket: flannel on top and bottom with wool batting. I know she had quilts, but flannel tie blankets are loads softer, cozier, and warmer (plus, I know she would genuinely appreciate a homemade gift). And from her I would hope to receive a handwritten or typed Christmas story, perhaps about one of her and Almanzo’s first Christmases at Rocky Ridge Farm in Missouri.
    Happy Vlogmas!

    You only had one crumpet! I'm sorry, but how did you achieve that? 😂 It must be at least two, that's the rule! 😂

    Thank you for talking about the Slatter book because I talked to my husband about it and he got it for me. I am loving it.

    Love your decor and Christmassy outfit. I can't think of what I'd give a favourite author or fictional character! But I'd love David Leviathan to gift me the rights to adapt his book two boys kissing for stage 😂😂 not sure I'd have anything of equal value to offer!

  • @Paintspotsandpaper

    I must re read Ann of Green Gables again, haven’t read it since I was a child. I’ve ordered Mistletoe and Malice, couldn’t resist lol! Thanks for sharing, take care xx

    I don't know if you've ever addressed this but my question is how many Christmas sweaters/jumpers do you actually have? I feel like you have at least one for each day of December but they don't look like they are repeated from year to year😃

    My festive bookish question: What 3 book characters would you invite to Christmas dinner with you?

  • @itchystitchy
    @itchystitchy 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Christmas reading questions options:
    1) What do you think Santa's favorite book is, or if you had to suggest a book for him to read what would it be?
    2) If you could live in your favorite Christmas story which story would it be and why? Which character would you be?
