&lt;p&gt;I hear from a lot of people that they don&amp;#39;t have time to read around the holidays. I can certainly understand that, but I need the escape of my favorite hobby more than ever during the busy month of December. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;At the top of my Christmas reading list this year, I had &lt;em&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://evans.evpl.org/search~S0?/tknit%20the%20season/tknit+the+season/1%2C3%2C3%2CB/frameset&amp;amp;FF=tknit+the+season&amp;amp;1%2C1%2C"&gt;Knit the Season&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt; by Kate Jacobs. It&amp;#39;s her third Friday Night Knitting Club novel. It focuses on 20-year-old Dakota Walker, who was a little girl in the first book, but the rest of the club and Dakota&amp;#39;s father James&amp;nbsp;are there too and it takes them from Thanksgiving through Christmas and New Year&amp;#39;s Day. I can&amp;#39;t say it&amp;#39;s as good as the first book, but I enjoyed it. It&amp;#39;s also my favorite so far from the batch of books&amp;nbsp;I&amp;#39;ve selected for this year. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Two others I&amp;#39;ve enjoyed this month are &lt;em&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://evans.evpl.org/search/t?SEARCH=The%20Great%20Christmas%20Bowl"&gt;The Great Christmas Bowl&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt; by Susan May Warren and &lt;em&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://evans.evpl.org/search~S0?/tThe%20Christmas%20Letters/tchristmas+letters/1%2C4%2C5%2CB/frameset&amp;amp;FF=tchristmas+letters+a+novella&amp;amp;1%2C1%2C"&gt;The Christmas Letters&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt; by Lee Smith. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you still find time to read around the holidays? If so, what are you reading this holiday season? &lt;/p&gt;
