Some Christmas books

Every December I try to read a few Christmas themed books.  So far this season I have read four, and currently reading one more and have another one in the queue. Kentucky Christmas by Sarah Title was really just a bad romance story that took place around Christmas, really not very good.  A Cedar Cove Christmas by Debbie Macomber was very good.  She really knows how to tell a story and make you feel good.  A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens was good.  I don't think that I have ever read the whole thing, so I am glad that I have done so now.  But my favorite by far has been The Christmas Letters by Bret Nicholaus.  It is about a Christmas when the grandfather knew it was going to be his last one and he did something special for everyone in the family to let them know how they have made Christmas special for him.  He does have one special letter for everyone that they share and it is all very touching.  It is a short book, less than twenty pages, but bursting at the binding with heartwarming feeling and soul.
