Do you have trouble reading a holiday book when it's nowhere near that holiday? The other day I picked up a Christmas romance from my pile of unread books. At first I considered putting it back in the pile because I didn't think I would be in the right mood for it. But then I decided I might as well and started reading it.
I liked the book and the Christmas theme wasn't distracting or overwhelming even though that holiday is months away. I noticed the book didn't get me in a festive mood—that always seems to happen when I read a holiday book during the holidays!
So what about you? Can you read a holiday book when it's not that holiday, or do you avoid those books until it's the right season?
