T5W: Top 5 Winter Reads

Merry Christmas-eve everyone! This weeks top 5 Wednesday is suitably festive and is my top 5 winter reads for the holidays. Top 5 Wednesday is organised by GingerReadsLainey over on Youtube so go check her out if you haven't already. This weeks topic was incredibly easy for me to find books, and ridiculously difficult to narrow down. If you haven't already guessed from the large amounts of festive book tags that I have posted over the last few weeks, I love Christmas. Christmas food, movies, books and songs. Everything. And once school has finished for the term I completely surrender to the crazy that is Christmas. I interpreted this topic as novels set during the holiday season as opposed to those I like to read during winter as I feel I have mentioned them quite a lot recently. Without further ado, and as usual in no particular order, here are my top 5 winter reads.

Let It Snow by John Green, Maureen Johnson and Lauren Myracle

This is such a great book to curl up with to get you into the holiday spirit when it's cold and snowing outside. It is one of those reads that just makes you want to snuggle up on your couch, a hot cocoa or tea in hand and enjoy the wintery atmosphere.



Dash and Lily's Book Of Dares by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan

Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares is the perfect Christmas read. It took me around New York in the busiest time of the year with Dash’s abhorrence versus Lily’s ecstasy for the holidays. It kinda remind me of the movie Serendipity: same Christmas-in-New-York setting with the same non-meetings but with the longing of meeting the one another.



My True Love Gave To Me edited by Stephanie Perkins

Yes, its that beauty of a book that you've seen floating about tumblr, intagram and youtube over the past fer months. I'm sure you're sick to death of hearing people go on about it so i'll leave it at that.



The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe by C S Lewis

This book brings me right back to my childhood. There are so many hidden metaphors that you pick up on re-reading this book.



Christmas With Billy And Me by Giovanna Fletcher 

I adore Giovanna's lighthearted contemporary romance and add in Christmas and you have a winner with me.
