Top Ten Tuesday; Ten Christmas Themed Books To Get Into Christmas Spirit

It's Tuesday again, which means it's time for another Top Ten Tuesday post, courtesy of That Artsy Reader Girl. This week was a freebie in terms of themes, so I decided to write a list of ten Christmas themed books to get into Christmas spirit (for adults), as I wrote about children's books last week.

My picks are;

A Gift From Bob by James Bowen

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

Hercule Poirot's Christmas by Agatha Christie

Not a Creature Was Purring by Krista Davis

Death by Eggnog by Alex Erickson

Christmas in the Snow by Karen Swan

Thread the Halls by Lea Wait

Purring Around the Christmas Tree by Liz Mugavero

Christmas at Rose Hopkins' Sweet Shop by Jenny Colgan

The Nutcracker by E. T. A Hoffmann

    Many of the books in your post look like a lot of fun to read and have great book covers.

    Love these! They sound super cozy (the ones I haven't read, anyways!) and perfect for getting into the holiday spirit. Love, love, love that cover for The Nutcracker--so beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

Announcing the 2022 Diversity Reading Challenge

Image
As we're writing 2022 in two months, I figured out it was time to announce the 2022 Diversity Challenge. I've hosted it in 2019 and 2021, and decided to host it next year too. I’m not going to make any categories or levels for this challenge, as I want it to be a bit flexible. Read as many books as you feel like reading and yes, it can be children’s books, graphic novels, e-books, non-fiction, audio books, poetry and you-name-it.
