Christmas festivities are upon us and as we binge-watch our favourite holiday movies, sometimes you just need a break from the small screen so you can enjoy something a little more old-fashioned.
There really is nothing better than curling up with a good book, and of course, it’s only appropriate to read holiday-themed novels in the month of December.
So put on some pyjamas, make yourself a hot mug of cocoa and read on to find out which holiday novels you need to read this festive season.
