Get Cozy With These 16 Holiday Classics
The holiday season is all about comfort and joy, but—let's be real—it can be a bit hectic too. That's why we suggest cozying up with a beloved book, and one that fits the season perfectly. Whether it's a traditional classic like Dickens' A Christmas Carol or more modern fare, like David Sedaris' Holidays on Ice, you're sure to find something that fits your mood (be it festive or bah humbug).
If you're mood is that of nostalgia, spend some time with childhood classics like How the Grinch Stole Christmas or The Polar Express then see if you can catch them on TV too. Or if you're seeing Frozen 2 on the big screen, you may consider reading Hans Christian Andersen's The Snow Queen to prep.
However you spend your holidays, we hope you're able to carve out a little time for reading, if not, be sure to add these books to your Want to Read shelf so they're waiting for you next year.
Which holiday classics will you be reading this winter? Share it with us in the comments!

Ah, thanks to whoever made this. I forgot the name of Wishin' and Hopin' when I saw it at the library.

I read letters from Father Christmas by JRR Tolkien every year and I try to read one of the Christmas stories written by Charles Dickens. I also really like The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey an hope to add many more to my most loved Christmas books soon!
I read Paul Aster's little feel good book Auggie Wren's Christmas Story
In Australia I try to read books to the kids that reflect our type of Christmas in the heat and with our native animals.

I looked up the film "Smoke" on Youtube after reading the book. Didn't know of it before then. Looks like a lot of fun :D
