pickI am by no means a big horror girl, but I was intrigued by this collection of holiday horror stories. As with most anthologies, I really liked some and there were some I just didn‘t get. But overall, I enjoyed it!

My #wintergames TBR progress so far! We‘ve had some wins and some fails, but so far it‘s been a great month! Just getting started on the tagged book. ❤️

I usually read holiday romcoms and feel-good books this time of year…but next year, I might mix it up with this holiday horror anthology!

I will admit to having written my #WinterGames TBR & #BookSpinBingo list two months ago! 🤣 I pretty much wrote down every Christmas audiobook that I already have on my phone, since I‘m really trying to downsize the books I have on my phone before purchasing more. Sadly, this isn‘t even all of them.🫣
Most anticipated: A Murder Yule Regret - simply because there‘s a pug on the cover!

pickThis was a compilation of short Christmas horror stories written by various well know authors. Some stories ran pretty dark and all were entertaining. I recommend this if you have a twisted sense of fun. The last novella was brilliant.
A gift from @MidnightBookGirl who knows me well 🤣
so-soBook 140🎧
I am giving this one a so-so as not all 18 stories tickled my fancy😂
From cults to teat suckling stuffed animals - this anthology has it all!
One thing that did erk me was that a lot of the stories don‘t have an official ending and just kind of fall off… I NEED CONCLUSIONS!😂

so-soStories were hit or miss, but worth it just to read a "Good Deeds" by Jeff Strand I actually laughed out loud and the whole time I was reading the story.

pickI enjoyed this much better than CHRISTMAS TERRORS. Some stories were better than others, but there really wasn‘t a bad one in the bunch. Nothing says Christmas like murder and ghosts! +451 for #teamreadnosedreindeer #wintergames
Spooky Christmas stories + cozy fire = maximum holiday spirit🎄
pickI don't know why I didn't grab this last year but I'm happy I waited. Some of the stories aren't the best, some are ok and some are just fantastic! Highly recommend for a little Christmas Horror!
18 stories = 450pts before readathons 👍

pickMy last book of the year 🖤 This was a great collection of creepy stories. My favorite was The Hangman's Bride by Sarah Pinborough.

This was my Christmas gift to myself, it‘s chock full of stories from a lot of my favorite authors and all the stories are holiday themed. What are you reading over the holidays?
pickI read some stories from this delightful (and spooky) anthology to my family on Christmas Eve 🎄🎁🤶🦌⛄🥂
Have a bit of driving to do today and tomorrow so found a festive book to listen to.
Hello, Monday evening. I‘m officially off for the next three days and I plan to do a significant amount of reading. Because I can. 📚💜📚💜📚💜
I‘m fairly confident the kittehs will take advantage of my reading time to be lap warmers and generally adorable. 😻 #catsoflitsy
Just picked up this anthology from the library. Totally a #blamelitsy book - I saw someone post about it a while ago and just had to check it out based on the title. I‘m looking forward to having a scary little Xmas. 😂 #libraryhaul
My final #bookhaul from @bookstockmi 📚‼️ #bookstagram #bookstack #bookworm
This year I was only able to go 4 out of the 8 days the sale was open. Are any of these on your TBR list?
so-soI just don‘t know if reading short stories is my thing. I found most of the stories in here needed MORE. The Hangman‘s Bride being the only truly strong story in the whole book (and it‘s the last one!)
April 1st isn‘t too late to read a bunch of Xmas horror right?
so-soThis book of short stories set on or around Christmas has about a 1:1 ratio of That was so good! to Meh.
As you can tell in this photo my dog Caprica had just finished a scary one!
#dogsofLitsy
so-soI enjoyed this collection for the most part. A few of the stories fell flat for me but some were really great. I particularly enjoyed the stories by Pinborough, Malerman, Strand, and Lansdale. It's worth checking out for some fun holiday reading.
so-soNot terrible! Not amazing, but entertaining enough. Not all of the stories were my bag of candy, but they were generally short enough that you didn't stay with anything too long. A solid so-so. I really love the cover, I wish the whole book had lived up to that campiness.

Happy Holidays! I hope everyone‘s Christmas book haul was full with things from your wish lists. I‘m chilling out finishing up this short story collection and wishing I didn‘t have to work tomorrow.
I'm looking forward to some holiday horror over the next week.
Very excited for this one this year. 🎄☠️🎄

so-soHark! the Herald Angels Scream was an interesting collection of holiday themed stories. There were a handful of tales that I really enjoyed, but others weren't such a hit for me.
But that cover design... How awesome is the old school horror feel?! I'm obsessed with this cover.
