The commercialization of the holidays makes me cringe into withdrawal from the whole idea. When I thought about what to read to get me in a mood of anticipation and pleasure, I first thought about fiction; I was pleasantly surprised by how many nonfiction books we have that would help. So here are a few (listed below) and if you go to our catalog and just put in the word for the holiday that you are considering (such as Christmas or Hanukkah) and do an “everything” search, you will find many more. Wishing you all Happy Holidays and a Joyous New Year!
