Merry Christmas! A Literary Christmas 2022: WRAP-UP


First of all, I’ve been thoroughly enjoying this year’s jolly season's reading. Thanks abundantly to Tarissa @ In The Book Case for hosting it! I’ve planned to read four books, but end up with five (thanks to Hamlette/Rachel @ The Edge of the Precipice! πŸ˜‰). Click the link to bring you to the reviews!

Jane and the Twelve Days of Christmas by Stephanie Barron - πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—1/2

It’s just as I have expected. (Very) cozy murder mystery. Witty, with a bit of romances, and packed with Christmas jolly – English Christmas jolly!

 

A Very French Christmas: TheGreatest French Holiday StoriesπŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—1/2

A mixed of some Christmas delights and some not very Christmassy. Some were jolly, but some quite bleak. All in all, a good collection to be devoured with a blanket each night before Christmas!

 

Hercule Poirot’s Christmas by Agatha ChristieπŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—

It’s a great murder mystery that happened to be committed on Christmas, but it’s definitely not what I’d hope for a Christmas read. There’s just too much blood for the festive seasons!

 

The Christmas Hirelings by MaryElizabeth Braddon - πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—

The perfect Christmas one can ever hope for! Joyful, heartwarming, full of love and forgiveness. 

 

Miracle on 34th Street by Valentine DaviesπŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—

A novella based on 1947's movie; heartwarming and a little inspiring. 

 

And last but not least, I would like to wish you all, from my heart to yours.…
