Merry Christmas!

Christmas... a wonderful day, full of love and happiness (or at the very least, some peace and quiet), and of course loads of awesome books :)

I love Christmas because it's the one day where my siblings and I call a truce to the sibling rivalry, my parents refrain from their nagging, and we all spend the entire day just hanging out with each other, having fun, quality family time. I look forward to it

every year, not for the gifts and the food (though they are pretty awesome), but because I love having this day to basically reconnect with my family, to just be together without all the drama and the strife. Where 5 people can put aside their differences and just get along. Christmas is a very powerful, amazing, miraculous day.

So therefore, I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas, and I'll see you in the New Year!
