Hey, guys! Okay, I'm sending this to both of the lists, because I think this could be a fun discussion for all of us, members and volunteers alike. In keeping with the season, I recently validated a Christmas book and submitted another. I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of two more that I hope to submit before my upcoming singing engagement in Cincinnati next week. All of this got me to thinking about favorite holiday reads, both in recent and distant past holiday seasons. I wondered if any of you had any favorite holiday books. I think my favorite of all time is "The Homecoming," by Earl Hamner, the writer of "The Waltons." I can't remember the author of 'The Christmas Train," which I read last year, but it was a delightful read, very warm and fuzzy. <Smile> Maybe my trip to a Victorian christmas festival here in Nashville today has really gotten me into the spirit of things, but I think this could be fun. And who knows, somebody just might have a great holiday story to submit to Bookshare that they've just forgotten about. So, come on, guys, take a break, and weigh in with your favorites, since we can't have a Bookshare holiday party! <Smile> Blessings!
