I’ve mentioned before that this is my favorite time of the reading year because all of the new holiday books releasing in the fall. I love watching Christmas movies and reading Christmas books to help me get into the spirit of the season. I’m not going to include descriptions for all of these. But the covers are usually what grabs my attention anyway! Many of these have been highlighted in Book News over the last few weeks if you want to know more about these stories.

– Grief, secrets and second chances are at the core of this new story in the Charmed Amish Life series. I know my friends who adore Amish fiction and Amish life will enjoy this book. And maybe discover a new series!
– A new story in the ongoing Baxter family saga. This one looks at redemption after tragedy at the holidays. I’ve never read a Baxter family story before, but this one sounds amazing. This is top of my holiday reading list!
– fiesty competition may lead to love in this story of a big city fella and a small town baker in a holiday contest. This one sounds fun!
– A set of three holiday-themed mysteries. Short stories join long-running series starring Lucy Stone, Hayley Powell and Julia Snowden (Maine Clambake series). I love collections like this because it lets readers try a taste of three series with which they might not be familiar.
– A woman blogs her efforts to thaw the grinchy heart of her neighbor. But when things start to warm between them, can she tell him the world has been reading about her efforts online? Debbie Macomber is a holiday staple, turning out a new Christmas story regularly. Check out this year’s offering!!
