I’ve been waiting patiently for the Christmas Spirit Reading Challenge 2012 to begin. It runs today, November 19, through January 6. I love Christmas stories and  and have already posted a couple of reviews, but today is the official start of the challenge, hosted by Michelle at The Christmas Spirit.

I am signing up for the Christmas Tree level, 5-6 books. These books have to be Christmas novels, books about Christmas lore, a book of Christmas short stories or poems, or books about Christmas crafts. I’m also throwing in Visions Sugar Plums, since I do love children’s books, and maybe a movie or two as part of Fa La La La Films.

Here are some of the books in my pile, but I’m sure my list will change.

  • The Nutcracker by E. T. A Hoffmann
  • A Christmas Garland by Anne Perry
  • Romancing the Holiday by Jaci Burton, HelenKay Dimon and Christi Barth
  • No Mistletoe Required by Jeanette Murray

And here’s the list of what I’ve actually read.
