I live for winter, well actually fall and winter. Winter’s gray
skies, cool temperatures, falling leaves, flames dancing in the
fireplace and blowing whirlpools of snowflakes filling the sky –
winter rocks. Winter is cozy and that is what Nigel Slater’s The
Christmas Chronicles feels like. Nigel brilliantly comforts us
with the warmth of food, stories and a sense of belonging to
something much bigger than ourselves giving us hope that all will
be right in the world.

Packed with feasts, folktales, myths and memoir, The Christmas Chronicles is a book you definitely need this season.
