David Sedaris: "Holidays on Ice"
While all the short stories in this holiday inspired collection by the always entertaining Sedaris are delightful, I especially recommend 'Santaland Diaries'. Who doesn't want to read about Sedaris shortlived period of being one of Santa's elves at Macy's?!

Almost every December I reread the entire Harry Potter series. It makes me feel like a kid again every time I read about one of Harry, Ron, and Hermionie's adventures.
Lauren Willig: "The Mischief of the Mistletoe"


I have a beautiful handmade edition of this Christmas classic that I read out loud to me and my husband before bed on Christmas eve. Hopefully a tradition that we will continue for many years to come!
