Why read it?
1 author picked Christmas as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
One of the things I love best about the Christmas season is how it’s a combination of many different things. Paganism, Christianity, and commerce have all contributed to Yuletide, resulting in a mishmash of traditions and customs.

From Jason's list on Christmas and the Holiday Season.
