I LOVE seasonal Christmas reading and Nigel Slater’s A Christmas Chronicles is a favourite. Would just add A Child’s Christmas in Wales, by Dylan Thomas and Truman Capote’s short story A Christmas Memory. Happy Yule Katherine!

The Nine Tailors, by Dorothy L. Sayers. A perfect read for the week between Christmas and New Years.

Oh the Icelandic book flood- such heaven! I so love reading Half Spent was the Night : A Witches‘ Yuletide by Ami McKay. If you haven’t read The Witches of New York, then I highly recommend starting there, but I nearly always add in a reread of the short winter holiday sequel on Christmas. 🎄
