I suppose I can safely say that by what's been going on on my Twitter that I'm not the only one excited about all of these new Christmas releases?!
Christmas is quite possibly my most favourite time of year - I spend it with family for about 2 weeks straight and the build up to Christmas Day I find even more exciting. Which is why of course, I love nothing more than reading a lighthearted Christmas read in the build up to the big day. Last year I read A Christmas Tail by Cressida McLaughlin and thoroughly enjoyed it (You can read my review here).
This year, however, I have no idea which one I want to read because there are soooo many good choices at the moment! At this rate I'll be starting my Christmas reads in September! Hence what this blog post is about. I want to show you all which ones I've found and really cannot wait for! It also helps that Harper Impulse are doing a #ChristmasInJuly over on their Twitter and revealing all new Christmas covers and holding some giveaways! So let's get into showing you some new Christmas novels...
First up, the one I want to read the most!
