A book with a festive heart

Post 1

Agapanthus

Dear all, Christmas approaches in its inevitable and looming sort of way. I had managed, bizarrely enough, to ignore the onset since September, but now it is apon us and I have a huge family and for reasons best known to the loopier bits of my subconscious I make my own Christmas cards and I am feeling just about as Christmassy as a boiled carrot right now. Does anyone have a lovely festive book that makes them feel all good-will-to-all-men that they'd care to recommend?

Yours in a state of utter untinsel

Little Mischief

The Christmas Box by Richard Paul Evans
Actually, all of his books make me feel that way smiley - smiley... but this was the first of his that I read, it's appropriate for the season, and it's short (so you'll still have time for all those cards!).
