I just finished the last book that I needed to get done before I could start my Christmas reading, so to celebrate I will share my December Christmas TBR with you!! Dash & Lily's Book of Dares - Rachel Cohn & David LevithanSYNOPSIS: “I’ve left some clues for you. If you want them, turn the page. If you don’t, put the book back on the shelf, please.” So begins the latest whirlwind romance from the bestselling authors of Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist. Lily has left a red notebook full of challenges on a favorite bookstore shelf, waiting for just the right guy to come along and accept its dares. But is Dash that right guy? Or are Dash and Lily only destined to trade dares, dreams, and desires in the notebook they pass back and forth at locations across New York? Could their in-person selves possibly connect as well as their notebook versions? Or will they be a comic mismatch of disastrous proportions? I absolutely adore David Levithan, and I love Christmas romances maybe even more, so combining the two is bound to be an earth shattering experience. The Twelve Days of Dash and Lily - Rachel Cohn & David LevithanSYNOPSIS: Dash and Lily have had a tough year since they first fell in love among the shelves of their favorite bookstore. Lily’s beloved grandfather suffered a heart attack, and his difficult road to recovery has taken a major toll on her typically sunny disposition. With only twelve days left until Christmas—Lily’s favorite time of the year—Dash, Lily’s brother Langston, and their closest friends must take Manhattan by storm to help Lily recapture the unique holiday magic of a glittering, snow-covered New York City in December. I went ahead and bought the sequel to Dash & Lily's Book of Dares too. That's how much I trust that David Levithan will not let me down. What Light - Jay AsherSYNOPSIS: Sierra's family runs a Christmas tree farm in Oregon—it's a bucolic setting for a girl to grow up in, except that every year, they pack up and move to California to set up their Christmas tree lot for the season. So Sierra lives two lives: her life in Oregon and her life at Christmas. And leaving one always means missing the other. Until this particular Christmas, when Sierra meets Caleb, and one life eclipses the other. By reputation, Caleb is not your perfect guy: years ago, he made an enormous mistake and has been paying for it ever since. But Sierra sees beyond Caleb's past and becomes determined to help him find forgiveness and, maybe, redemption. As disapproval, misconceptions, and suspicions swirl around them, Caleb and Sierra discover the one thing that transcends all else: true love. I saw this book in the bookstore and the cover captivated me (I have a weakness for fairy lights) so I got it! My True Love Gave to Me - Edited by Stephanie PerkinsSYNOPSIS: If you love holiday stories, holiday movies, made-for-TV-holiday specials, holiday episodes of your favorite sitcoms and, especially, if you love holiday anthologies, you’re going to fall in love with My True Love Gave To Me: Twelve Holiday Stories by twelve bestselling young adult writers, edited by international bestselling author Stephanie Perkins. Whether you enjoy celebrating Christmas or Hanukkah, Winter Solstice or New Year's there's something here for everyone. So curl up by the fireplace and get cozy. You have twelve reasons this season to stay indoors and fall in love. I love Stephanie Perkins, Rainbow Rowell, David Levithan and Gayle Forman already, but I am ready to love these other authors too and to fall in love with their Christmas stories. Decked with Holly - Marni BatesSYNOPSIS: Taking a Christmas cruise with her two cousins from hell isn't Holly's idea of a good time. And when seasickness forces her into an open suite, she's pepper-sprayed by a gorgeous guy called Nick. But when Holly makes her exit, she's greeted by a horde of screaming teenage fans. Because Nick happens to be Dominic Wyatt, drummer for one of the hottest bands in America. Suddenly rumours are swirling and Holly's face is plastered all over the Internet. The band can't risk a scandal destroying their family-friendly image, so Dominic convinces Holly to be his fake girlfriend - just for two weeks. How bad could it be to be "fauxmantically" involved with a cute rock star? She's about to find out... I saw this book on a list of "YA Christmas reads" and as it combines two of my favourite things (Christmas and celebrity dating - I seriously love Girl Online...) I HAD to have it! It was pretty hard to get my hands on it, but I got it!! That's my Christmas TBR! What are your favourite Christmas books? Let me know!
