A Bookish Christmas
by Elizabeth Byler Younts
Don'tcha just LOVE writing your Christmas list and adding your looooong list of books that you’re dying to read? Have you ever gone so far and provided links to where they can be purchased for the best price? Not that I would EVER do that. {clears throat}
Well, as much as I love getting books for Christmas, I love giving them. It’s always a tough choice on WHICH one to give when there are so many amazing books out there. What I’ve done lately is pick something that I read previous year.
Last year I sent my sister-in-law the first book in Allison Pittman’s Sister Wife series, For Time & Eternity. It was my favorite read last year and I couldn’t wait to give her the chance to enjoy it.
My other sister-in-law likes more action-oriented books so I gifted her a DiAnn Mills book , the 2nd installment in her Call of Duty series Sworn to Protect. I’d given her book 1 the year before.
I always have books on my list and a few years back I asked for The Hiding Place by Corrie Tenboom and while I ended up listening to it audio when it was offered free, that has recently become a favorite of mine. I have listened to it twice this year and just love her story that displays such faithfulness from the Lord.
If you aren’t sure what books to pick up for the avid reader in your family here’s a list of some of the books I’ve read this year that I would definitely give as gifts!
The Help by Kathryn Stockett The Book Theif by Markus Zusak
Lilies in Moonlight by Allison Pittman
Forsaking All Others by Allison Pittman
A Woman’s Place by Lynn Austin
Love’s Pursuit by Siri Mitchell
While We Were Far Apart by Lynn Austin
Circle Series by Ted Dekker
Beside Still Waters by Tricia Goyer
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
