This is a Christmas book tag I created last year and so I figured I'd bring it on back for round two.
JINGLE BELLS
A fun, light-hearted book/series
Okay, so this novel isn't ENTIRELY sunshine and unicorns, but it's really heckin' fun and cute.
I SAW MOMMY KISSING SANTA CLAUSE
A book/series with a scandalous romance
This entire graphic novel series basically hinges on their scandalous relationship and their even more scandalous child! Now Everybody and their frickin chinchilla is hunting them down and all we can do is hope that their love (and their lives) can stand the trillion trials and tribulations they undergo.
I'LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS
A book/series you are determined to re-read
I've been wanting to re-read this series for a while now, and with the new book (!!!!!!!!!!!!) coming out, I absolutely HAVE to re-read it.
SANTA CLAUSE IS COMING TO TOWN
Your most anticipated release of 2018
This was incredibly difficult because there are so many books coming out in 2018 that I need in my life (more than usual, it seems--maybe because I've read more new releases this year so I gotta get the sequels in my hands stat), but I picked Obsidio mostly because I finished Gemina like a week ago and it was incredible. I need to know what happppppppens.
SILENT NIGHT
A beautiful book/series that everyone knows
This book is obviously beautiful to look at, but the writing is beautiful and the characters are beautiful and I'm in love with this book. Feel free to check out my review from earlier this year!
WINTER WONDERLAND
A book/series with great worldbuilding
This is the first book I read in 2017 and it remains one of my absolute favorites (Take a gander at my lil review if you want to read all my nonsensical gushing). One of the reasons it was so utterly captivating and magical is because the world that Marissa Meyer gives us is quirky and, yeah, based on Lewis Carroll's world, but also completely her own.
GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN
An underhyped book/series that is so great you want to tell everyone about it
I wasn't really sure what I was getting into with this novel, but I fell in love with it. It's a romance but it's more than a romance. And it has autism rep. It broke my heart and sewed it back together. I cannot understand why more people aren't talking about this novel (but you can totally read my review if you wanna know more about it).
I SAW THREE SHIPS
Favorite trilogy
All right, well, fuck me because I have read very few trilogies in their entirety. This was tough because Delirium is one of my all-time favorite novels, but I'm not as fond as the rest of the books in the series. I mean, they're not horrible or anything, but they are by no means on the same level as the trilogy's first installment.
RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER
A book/series with an underdog protagonist who rises up
When I think about this trope, I don't usually think about contemporary novels, but in a way, most contemporary books fit this description. Noteworthy has excellent character development, and I really loved to see how Jordan, the protagonist, started from the bottom and rose to a whole new level of happiness and talent and awareness. (My review for anyone interested.)
HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS
A book/series that helped you get through troubling times
Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead
Okay, this is the only answer I'm keeping the same as last year, because this will always be my answer to a question like this. I could write an entire post about this. In fact, I have! Check out the guest post I did over at Book Nerds Across America if you're curious how deeply significant this book is in my life.

And that's all for the Jingle All the Way book tag! I'm not going to tag specific people, but I encourage you to do this if you think it sounds fun!!!
