Only a few days until The Man in Red brings all the good little boys and girls some super swell gifts! I’ve been pretty good this year, so I’m hoping Mr. Claus will bring me some… books! Doesn’t that sound nice? Maybe he’ll leave me a whole stack! Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!! Maybe he’ll choose something from this list:
True Blue by David Baldacci
The Magicians by Lev Grossman
Lakeshore Christmas by Susan Wiggs
Bust by Ken Bruen
Sarah’s Key by Tatiana De Rosnay
Baking Cakes in Kigali by Gaile Parkin
Bed of Roses by Nora Roberts
Tidings of Comfort and Joy by T. Davis Bunn
Ghost a la Mode by Sue Ann Jaffarian
I think Santa could find something for everyone from those titles, don’t you? Or maybe the dear old man would want to please the Jane Austen fan in me with A Truth Universally Acknowledged: 33 Great Writers on Why We Read Jane Austen or the child in me with one of the new editions of Maud Hart Lovelace’s Betsy books or one of the Penguin Classics redesigned by Coralie Bickford-Smith? Oh, the joyous possibilities for bookworm! Good luck to us all!
