Welcome to Litsy!

#BookMail for #MidWinterSolace arrived☺️

Looking forward to these. My husband and I are decorating and celebrating for the winter holiday season for the first time together. We‘ve been together for several years, but we‘ve always ignored most holidays. Winter zen sounds so good right now❄️☃️

I think this is probably a good read if you're overwhelmed each year by Christmas, but since the Hubs and I don't have kids and usually spend Christmas on our own or with friends, a lot of advice didn't serve me. But it did really make me think about gift giving and how I want to tackle future Christmases.

Loving all the Christmas books.

A lovely relaxing and calming read that‘s perfect for this time of year

Hygge is very much a mindset rather than a lifestyle. It's all about comfort, not just physical but also emotional and psychological comfort. Focus on what brings you comfort in life, the people you spend time with, fave activities, food & drink.
Most importantly, do what you gotta do to take care of yourself. Own your mood and embrace it for what it is x

My last lists for 2022. 😍❄️🥂🎄 I've drawn up 3, as I'm planning on lots of mood reading for the #midwintersolace and #winterreadathon events.
List 1 - Anthologies for all those busy days
List 2 - Fiction to bring warmth, comfort and joy
* List 3 - Non-fiction to keep the brain ticking over and curiosity

I've included all remaining challenge books to round up 2022

A delightful book filled with musings, suggestions, love and light for the holiday season. I picked up a few great ideas to make the season less harried and more meaningful. #wintergames #mistletoemaniacs @Clwojick @StayCurious

I enjoyed the parts that celebrated and romanticised Christmas and winter. Beth Kempton is great at describing simple things in beautiful ways.

I less liked the ‘self help‘ parts which came across quite privileged and ‘just be less stressed‘. As a person with chronic pain, being told that enjoying Christmas will be easier for me if I journal and do yoga every morning doesn‘t help a lot when my condition makes those specific things very painful.

🌲All this snow has me with Christmas on the brain. One of my favorite bookstagrammers has Calm Christmas in her pile of TBR. Once I read the premise, loving the idea of daily readings from late November thru January, I immediately bought a copy. Who doesn‘t love the notion of a calm Christmas or calm season in life for those that celebrate differently or not at all?

Anyone else reading this during the holiday season?
