I like to read, listen, watch...
Give us some cozy winter reading, fiction or non-. Movies, podcasts, series, too. Why you like it. Please, no links to purchase sites. Start a new thread for each recommendation, and put some key words in it.
Don't link to a bookstore (or other) source: other members can simply look up the book if they want to buy it of get it from their library.
