From Your Catalog
Whether you enjoy romance, mystery, cookbooks, or crafts, we have something for everyone during the holidays. I had a difficult time choosing what to include in this list, because there are just so many great new holiday books at our libraries. If you have read my holiday lists in the past, you know I'll be curled up with holiday romances from Thanksgiving to Christmas. Maybe this year, I'll try some holiday-themed mysteries, as well! You might prefer planning your holiday meals with our cookbooks, or perhaps you love to gift family and friends with handmade holiday-themed crafts. My grandmother loved to crochet delicate snowflake ornaments, often with patterns she found in books and magazines from the library. We at the library love the idea that we are an essential part of your holiday experience. Best wishes for the season!
