This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is a freebie so I figured this was the perfect time to list down 10 holiday reads that I would love to get to this month if I have time between everything else I want to squeeze in! Even if I manage to read one or two of these books I’ll be happy but they have all caught my eye and I would love to pick them all up!
10 Holiday Reads on my Radar are:
I was in the mood for a nice Christmassy tag and I did this one around this time last year so I figured why not redo it again! See the original post HERE!
