by Donna Huber

I like to start reading Christmas books Thanksgiving night. As a reviewer, I often have Christmas ARCs starting in September and I've missed my Christmas story binge fest so this year I've held off on a few books so that I will be able to read almost nothing but Christmas books from Thanksgiving to New Year's. In case you are looking for what to read this holiday season, I decided to share my list.
