Let's Get Jolly - Christmas Song Book Tag!


So there's nothing like trying to force yourself into the Christmas spirit.  I wasn't tagged by anyone but I did see this tag on Booktube which was created by HailsHeartsNYCIf you decide to participate, please leave me a link so I can check it out!

1. "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch" - Name a villainous character you couldn't help but love.
Captain Hook - although to be honest, he wasn't very villainous in this book.  He's still my fave though!

2.  "All I Want For Christmas Is You" - Which book do you most hope to see under the tree?
These illustrated copies are gorgeous and I need this one to add to my other two. 

3. "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" - Name a character that overcomes major obstacles and learns to believe in themselves.
Brydie Benson.  I still can't stop thinking about this book.

4. "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" - Which characters are at the top of the naughty and nice lists?
Peter from "Lost Boy" is definitely at the top of the naughty list and Smooshie has to be at the top of the nice one!


5. "Frosty the Snowman" - Which book melts your heart?
I adore Martin - Damn ABC for cancelling one of my favorite shows.

6. "Feliz Navidad" - Choose a book that takes place in a country other than  your own
I love the Lady Sherlock series.

7.  "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" - What holiday book do you use to spread the Christmas joy?
This is definitely one of my new holiday favorites.

8.  "Sleigh Ride" - What fictional character would you chose to spend the holidays with?
The entire gang from "Twelve Slays of Christmas" in their hometown of Mistletoe.

9.  "Baby It's Cold Outside" - What book that you didn't like would you sacrifice to the fire to warm yourself up?
Was there any doubt?" And since it was the longest book I read this year, it would keep me warm the longest too!  

10.  "Do You Hear What I Hear?" -  What book do you think everyone should read"
I know at least 2 people on my Christmas list who are getting copies this year!

  1. So happy to see Pupcakes getting some love. It's one of my favorite holiday books of the year!! I went into it not expecting much, but it ended up blowing me away. I loved little Teddy Roosevelt as well as Brydie. I actually bought a copy for my mom for christmas so I'm hoping she loves it too.

    1. Yes you do. While I love the 12 Slays book - I always think there should have been 12 murders...and there isn't.

  6. I'm forcing myself into the Xmas spirit by having my sims do Christmas lol.

    Ahhh Cap Hook is one of my fave characters even in the original where he is the villain, so I approve! And ooh, I would like the illustrated HP books too!

    1. Yep, Little Heaven has had a good reign but probably not for the reasons the author would prefer.

  9. I couldn't watch TV in the US...they seem to cancel everything I like even before I'm caught up! I don't think I could invest my time each week for it to just vanish!

    But... I'm devastated to see that Downward Dog has been cancelled! Love that show! Love Martin!! Noooooooooo!!!!! (Maybe Netflix or someone will pick it up....)
