I like to read holiday books before the actual holiday too. I hadn’t thought of that. I wonder if people’s reading habits are reversed, like the weather is? Interesting idea.

Hmm, this makes me feel bad for all the people in the southern hemisphere who are drowning in snowy, wintry stories right at the height of their summer.

Interesting. I hadn’t thought of reading a book during the time of year that it is set, but that’s a good point. Although I do try to read Christmas-themed books before Christmas.

So much of it takes place in summer, all the swimming and fishing… I like to read books over and over, and often the season when I first read it sort of becomes part of the book. (There’s one book where the first chapter always makes me think about digging potatoes.) I do think weightier books tend to be more wintry. And all those lovely new books that come out over the Holidays. Those are definitely winter books. Any books that you’ve gotten for Christmas also counts in the winter category. 🙂
