I sin hyggelige boghandel i Edinburgh, The Christmas Book Shop, forbereder Katie sig til jul. Alt tyder på, at det bliver den sidste, for økonomien halter, og Katie er blevet gammel og mangler én til at overtage den lille butik, der har været i familiens eje gennem generationer.

I’m a dog trainer. I can teach any unruly pup to sit, stay, and not eat the furniture. My ex-boyfriend, however, is a whole other breed. A year ago, Josh became a millionaire after creating a wildly popular video game...about dogs. My idea, by the way. I took one look at his new bank account and ran—all the way to another continent.

Caroline’s got frugality down to a fine art. She can make a tin of soup stretch for days, considers “reduced to clear” her love language, and thinks Christmas is just a daft excuse for people to throw their money away on tinsel trimmed tat. But Christmas Eve night takes a turn when her best mate, Marlene, drops in for a chat. Lovely, right? Except Marlene’s been dead for seven years and she’s got a message for Caroline, she will be visited by three spirits and if she doesn’t pay attention, her future’s looking bleaker than the contents of her fridge freezer.

We share an innovative, light-hearted story as our hero traverses a typical English hamlet, helter-skelters along (with the aid of providential fate, in particular, the natural world of plants, trees and the numerous animals roaming the village) while, at the same time, being plunged into unexpected adventures and discovering how Christmas traditions have evolved from their inception to current Christmas practices and values.

A Humanist Christmas is a collection of heartfelt stories originally shared with friends and family in the form of Christmas letters. Written with warmth and wit, these tales capture the joy, challenges, and small miracles the season. It is a book about Christmas Past—with memories sweet and bittersweet—and about Christmas Present—reflections on artificial trees and artificial intelligence—and about Christmas Future—how our dark times may be lightened by the Christmas spirit. It is a fun listen because Christmas should have “room for ideas as loopy as flying reindeer.”

Christmas is supposed to be about “peace on earth” and “goodwill toward men.” Glyn Darrow bought that lie for the first three decades of her life, but whoever said that (it was one of God’s angels, wasn’t it?) clearly hadn’t met Glyn’s new neighbor. He’s stolen all the peace from her life and any goodwill she might have had toward men. If only his notes wouldn’t make visions of mistletoe dance in her head. When Clay Ruskin moved onto Elderberry Close, he didn’t imagine that he’d be “greeted” by a note from his uptight new neighbor…or that she’d drive him to distraction–good and bad.

Summer McKenzie hates the holidays. Maybe it’s because she’s an atheist who’s never had a reason for the season. Maybe it’s burnout from working at the second-best hotel in Yosemite National Park. Or maybe it’s because nothing has felt truly festive since she lost the love of her life in a climbing accident.

London, 1928. Marius Quin and Lady Bella Montague are ready for a quiet Christmas when they learn that Bella’s beloved Aunt Adele has met a shocking end in her picture-perfect cottage.

I woke up with a mild hangover and an alarm notification that said, “Check attachment in email Cleo sent to herself from my phone, Dummy.” Your video proof of me offering you a temporary assistant job over the holidays seems legit. The payment amount I agreed to was outrageous. However, I have a deadline to meet. Having already fired seven temps this week, I am inclined to give this a shot, assuming you are willing to start today.
