Author Tasha Alexander Shares Her Favorites For The Season
Book enthusiasts look for those special holiday reads of the season. Noted historic fiction author Tasha Alexander is no different.
“I have favorites that are essential reading for my holiday enjoyment,” said the Chicago resident, who spends her working time writing the popular Lady Emily series set in Victorian England period. Her list blends classics with newer literary works.
Alexander shares her holiday favorites that others might enjoy while sipping egg nog and curled up on the couch…wood-burning fireplace is optional.
1. THE MISCHIEF OF THE MISTLETOE, Lauren Willig. Willig is at her witty best in this charming tale. You'll never look at Christmas pudding (or root vegetables!) in the same way. If you buy one book this Christmas, it should be this.
2. A CHRISTMAS ODYSSEY, Anne Perry. Perry does a magnificent job highlighting the contrast between rich and poor in Victorian England, but manages just the same to give her story a delicious holiday feel.
3. A CHRISTMAS CAROL, Charles Dickens. We read this out loud every December; it's one of my son's favorites. The story goes beyond classic, and serves as an excellent reminder of Dickens' multitudinous talents.
4. A CHILD'S CHRISTMAS IN WALES, Dylan Thomas. A sentimental favorite, full of warm childhood memories, rich with nostalgia. A perfectly painted picture of a long-vanished time and place.
5. LITTLE WOMEN, Louisa May Alcott. It's impossible not to love the Christmas scene. Even if you do want to slap Amy by the end of the book....
