Topic: Chistmas Book anyone

Mags and I and someone else read Christmas books around this time of the year.

I was going to buy one at Sam's last week and...well, I thought maybe I would see what you bought and buy the same thing...

cause I'm a copy cat...and I like to share.

Anyone?  Want to share what you are reading?

Skipping Christmas was a hoot.  Mary Higgins Clark and her daughter, Carol Clark have a collection of Christmas stories that are all very good and well worth a read if you like a good mystery.

Now for a real do, do, do, do.  I love Max Lucado's Cosmic Christmas and read it every Christmas Eve.  I couldn't remember the exact name of the book so I went into our library to look.  I found it but I also found another book by Max Lucado, An Angel's Story.  I so do not remember buying that book. I know I haven't read it but I have no recollection of buying it.  I know I must have but thought it was really strange that something sent me in to look for one book and I find another. No doubt I will be reading it.

I think I'm a copy cat too Weezer.  The book I have to read for this Christmas I bought last year.  And if I am remembering correctly it was because of a Christmas book topic.  I had already read another Christmas book last year so I saved it.

It's "Christmas Jars'' by Jason F. Wright.  Isn't that one that a few have already read and loved???

My all time favorite is still ''Skipping Christmas'' by John Grisham.  Sorry I don't have any other recommendations.  Since I already had one for this year, I haven't been looking for a new one yet.

Maybe I'll get some ideas for next year from your topic and the responses you get.

I picked up a paperback of short Christmas stories last year, I think at Sam's. Lo and behold, when I read the first one it was more about a guy's amazing girth than the more traditional yule log. I never read the rest of the stories. It may still be somewhere around here.

I'm glad you posted this. I'm about finished with my library books, and I think I'll search the stacks for some good Christmas reads. Any suggestions?
