Greetings, readers! Welcome to the fifth annual 12 Days of Christmas blog party. :D
As always, I'll be posting daily for the next twelve days—today thru Christmas Day. And all the other 12DoC-ers posts will be linked after my topic of the day. There's also a giveaway and tons of other epicness!
If you're new to the party and have questions about how things work, ask away. We want you to be able to enjoy the party to the fullest. It's loads of fun!

|| My Christmas TBR
It's no secret that I'm a book hoarder. An epic fact that I only consider a problem when I run out of shelf space, instead of when I'm leaving a bookstore with a STACK.
Recently, it came to my attention that I have several Christmas books that I haven't read. So, in addition to the oodles of library loans currently in my care, I threw together a sort of "Christmas TBR"—a stack of Christmas books that I have and want to read or re-read this Christmas season.
So here goes!

So here goes!
12 Days at Bleakly Manor by Michelle Griep /// I bought this book from a CBD sale because, first off, it's cHriStmAs. Oh, and it was really cheap so. xD After it arrived, I read the synopsis in full and it sounds really good!
A Tale of Two Hearts by Michelle Griep /// Another CBD sale. That I bought upon realizing it was the sequel to a book I already had, haha. I think I might have even saw a third book floating around? Anyway, I'm hoping to read this series soon!
A Simple Christmas Wish by Melody Carlson /// I've had this book for like...so long. Several years. And I still haven't read it—something that I can't even blame on the book being boring, because I haven't even tried to read it. So maybe I'll get to this one. ;D
Unexpected Christmas Hero by Kathi Macias /// I don't remember where I first heard about this book—Goodreads? Probably. But it looks like such a gem! I happened to stumble across it at a used bookstore this month, so of course, I had to get it!
Hear Them Ring by Erynn Mangum /// I've been hearing great things about Erynn Mangum and her books for quite some time. This book actually has four Christmas stories tucked inside, all of which looks sweet and fun.
On This Holy Night by Max Lucado, Rick Warren, David Jeremiah, & others /// Another CBD sale grab, hehe. This little Christmas devo promises a fresh and unique look at the familiar Christmas story. And the cover is super cute.
|| Giveaway
This year's giveaway is pretty epic! Two winners will each receive a paperback copy of Behold, an ornament, a pair of fuzzy Christmas socks, and maybe some other Christmasy goodies if I come up with something... ;) So be sure to enter and share it with your friends!
