Well we got through September. While I am longing for fall temperatures here, my friends in the southern hemisphere are about to experience Springtime :-) Clearly I need a home is two parts of this world, haha.
So a wrap up of September reading and watching.
I was saddened to learn of Nan's passing. She wrote at Letter from a Hill Farm and will be missed. Les wrote a lovely tribute to Nan and you can read that HERE.

Vanishing Cornwall by Daphne du Maurier - a nonfiction for my 2025 Nonfiction Reading Challenge at Book's Out. and British Isles Friday.
I enjoyed the book and learning so much about the history of Cornwall. It was a place du Maurier had such a passion for and influenced so many authors we have read in classic literature. The part about Yorkshire and the Bronte sisters and family was very interesting to me. Reading about their Cornish mother and aunt and how it sparked their imaginations, inspiring the plots and locale in their books.
The myths and legends about Arthur, King Mark and Tristan were page turners as well. Too many stories in here to address all but if you have an interest in the history, landscape, myths and legends about Cornwall, please check your local library for a copy of this book.
As a few commenters stated they didn't know Daphne du Maurier wrote any nonfiction. I thought I would include a screen shot of the book listing her books. She wrote many about Francis Bacon, I suppose her big interest, as well as memoirs.
Category for the nonfiction challenge is Myths and Legends.
