I love to read but, in the hustle, and bustle of all of the holiday preparations sometimes I just don't feel like getting into a full-size novel. This year instead, I read three short stories with holiday themes. This really worked well for me, and I enjoyed the short stories which were light reading. All of these books were ones that I downloaded to my Kindle from Amazon and because I am a Prime member they were all free to read from Prime Reading. They are also available to purchase in either paperback books, audio books, or digital books.
Christmas at the Little Paris Hotel
This book was written by Rebecca Raisin and can be ordered from Amazon at Christmas at the Little Paris Hotel . What can be better than a delightful story taking place in Paris during the holidays? In this story Anais receives an unwelcome surprise in her divorce settlement. It is a run-down hotel in Paris. She needs the money desperately but what is she to do with this run-down hotel.
She would really like to sell it and move on with her life, but this does not prove to be a viable option. Her next thought is to turn it into a beautiful place and open by Christmas. But is this even possible? This is a must-read story full of romantic comedy and mystery! Something for everyone.

The Christmas Book Hunt
This book was written by Jenny Colgan and can be found at this link The Christmas Book Hunt. The setting for this story is London and small towns in the UK.
The main character, Mirren is on a hunt to find a rare book for her Aunt Viola, who is dying. Viola remembers this book from her youth and her dying wish is to once again see this book before she dies. The book is rare and hard to find because the author Robert Louis Stevenson had teamed up with a famous author who did illustrations for the one book.
Mirren is determined to find this book for her aunt and her search takes her to several small towns that have lots of rare book shops. Along the way she runs into a handsome stranger who, unknown to Mirren is searching for the same book for his uncle's rare book shop. All of this is taking place in the days leading up the Christmas.
Holiday Hideaway
Mary Kay Andrews, the author of over 30 award winning novels, wrote this delightful short story. You can find it at the following link. Holiday Hideaway
In this enchanting story, Tilly is not very happy about the upcoming holidays. She is recently divorced and down on her luck, so she is staying in one of her companies unoccupied rentals until her new apartment is ready. All is going along until the owner, George, shows up to sell his granduncles house. He is staying in the house so Tilly hides out in the attic. Fun ensues as Tilly tries to avoid running into George.
This story is taking place just before Christmas and you will need to read it to find out what Christmas magic happens.
Happy Reading and Happy New Year
