Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving when shoppers descend upon early opening stores, kicks off the traditional start of the holiday shopping season next week.

Each month, we’ll be asking you, the BookSwimmers, to come up with a top ten list of books. This month will be a little wacky, since we’re starting at the end of November, so we’ll continue it through the end of December and start a new one fresh in January.
Look out for updates to this monthly list every Friday. We need YOUR help to make it work!
So, in the spirit of the holiday season – perhaps we can call it the “Holiday Spirit”® – we’re asking you to submit your favorite book that takes place during the Holiday Season (and no, we’re not talking about Labor Day through Columbus Day – not that there’s anything wrong with that).
Simply comment on this entry to nominate your favorite holiday title. We, the Literary Life staff, will compile all of the nominations and produce a list of ten. There will then be a run-off in which you can all vote.
Can I get a “Whoopie”? Nominate your favorite holiday book in the comments section.
