We are on to a new week for the Book Blogger Hop hosted by the lovely folks over at Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer. This weeks questions is:
Are there any winter or holiday-themed novels you eagerly anticipate reading every December, either as a tradition or to get in the Christmas spirit? (submitted by Billy @ Coffee Addicted Writer)
No. There are not any books that I read every year. I don't reread often at all because there are so many books out there that I still need to read, that I don't really have a lot of time for rereading. In fact, about the only time lately that I've found myself rereading a book, is when one of my eight book clubs has selected a book that I've read, but years ago, so I need a refresher to be able to discuss it (that has happened like three times this year).
That being said, I DO look forward to holiday reading every year. Once Thanksgiving hits, I want to read all the cheesy romances, and watch all the cheesy Christmas movies. I have a whole bookshelf dedicated to just Christmas books, and the number of Christmas ebooks I own is ridiculous. And I've only read a fraction of them so far. So I do look forward to reading Christmas books to get in the spirit of the season, but not any specific books every year.
Are there any books you look forward to reading every year? Any holiday books you think I should read sooner rather than later? If you do read winter holiday themed books at this time of year, have you joined my 12 Books of Christmas Reading Challenge? Sign-ups are open until Christmas, and there are several levels of commitment starting with just reading a single book.

I am the same. Too many new books out there!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend!
I'll have to look up your Christmas challenge. I love a good challenge!
ReplyDeleteOh nice! I don't read too many holiday themed novels. That my favorite author released a novella that's Christmasy was just perfect timing! It was a pretty fast read considering there are illustrations too! But yeah, normally I don't re-read, unless it's Stephanie Garber and I want that refresher, which actually helped for this novella even though it's said you don't need to read the books to read the novella! It does really help though! Lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my BBH!
I love to read picture books every Christmas. And that's what I'm doing this year for the 12 Books of Christmas Challenge.
ReplyDeleteI used to hate to reread, but (and I have no idea why this has changed) now I love it!
ReplyDeleteI'm like you, there isn't a certain Christmas book I look forward to rereading each December, but every November I start checking out Christmas-themed romances from the library like crazy. :D
