For us, winter is the best time to read. There's nothing like snuggling up with a blanket and a good book. And of course, there’s something about the season that makes us want to pick up a book, be it one of those classics you’ve always wanted to read or a new release that fits perfectly into the holiday theme. 

If you're looking for some new books to read this holiday season, here are some ideas:

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens is a classic tale that has been told time and time again in order to help us remember the true meaning of the season. It is the story of Christmas, but it's also a ghost story, a morality tale, and a tale of redemption. It's both supernatural and mysterious; all these elements come together to create one of Dickens' most beloved stories.

The story follows the life of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly old man who hates Christmas and everything that it stands for. He is visited by three ghosts on Christmas Eve, who show him what life would be like if he never changed his ways. The book is full of symbolism and character development, making it easy to see why this novel has stood the test of time and become such a beloved classic.

The Polar Express by Chris Van Allsburg
