[Book Blogger Hop] What I Read During The Holidays

December 8, 2017      Erica Robyn      14 Comments

Book Blogger Hop

Book Blogger Hop is a weekly meme hosted by Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer, where you answer a question and join a “hop”. The purpose is to help bloggers discover and get to know one another.

For this week’s question, Maria @ A Night’s Dream of Books asks:

If you celebrate Christmas, do you feel the need to stop reading anything but Christmas-themed romances as the holiday season starts?

My answer:
I do indeed celebrate Christmas. I try to add as many holiday-themed books to my December TBR as I can, but they don’t have to be romances. Though I will admit, I am a total sucker for Hallmark-style cheesy holiday romances. 🙂

Thanks for reading!
If you’re also a fan of the cheesy Hallmark-style romances with absolutely NO erotica, I’d love to hear your recommendations in the comments section below!

    I like to add a few Christmas type reads in during November and December but am not strict about it. I find as I get older, I love Christmas even more. We always make it a point to watch Peanuts, Rudolph and Frosty each season.

    I don't normally read holiday-themed books, but I actually read a few this year – they weren't all romances, though. Pride, Prejudice, and Mistletoe was pretty cute!

    We do watch a lot of cheesy Christmas movies, though – for some reason, my husband loves them!

      Yay!! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it! A fellow blogger gifted a copy to me. I can't wait to dive in!

      I just watched a cheesy hallmark-ish movie on Netflix called A Christmas Prince. It was super cute.

    I am the same way! I hate heavy romance holiday reads but ones about family and community are the best. The cheesier and the Hallmark/Lifetime-y they are the better!!

    Hi! I also celebrate Christmas and I enjoy reading holiday reads for sure! However, that isn't ALL I read in December. I tend to alternate a bit between my usual TBR and holiday romances/cozies. Plus, there tend to be plenty of shorter holiday stories or classics out there that help me reach my reading goal when I haven't quite gotten there…like this year. Oops! lol

    I love Christmas! I just keep reading what I'm reading, because I'm so busy either working during the crazy holiday season, or shopping for gifts. I'll be lucky if I can finish the book in any capacity.

    I don't think I've ever read a Christmas romance… if I see one on tv usually I end up making a MST3K style running commentary… XD
