Fannie Flag, “Christmas in the Lost River”

It is a book that will envelop you with warmth and kindness. Lost River is a somewhat forgotten and sleepy town located near Alabama, which constantly enchants newcomers with its magic. Seriously ill Oswald, who lives in Chicago, receives a doctor’s recommendation to spend the winter in a warmer place, so he goes to the Lost River. Here, a completely different life awaits him, where he will learn the power of friendship and kindness. He will make friends with a postman and a shopkeeper who heals wounded hearts, and will also discover his artistic talent here. Christmas in such a place is a magical experience for him, which is a particularly nice springboard from the disease that weighs upon him.

Magdalena Kordel, “Landscape with an Angel”

Ada, the main character, would prefer to go as far from home as possible at Christmas.

Madeleine, a former friend of hers, receives her at her cottage, which is almost at the end of the world. After that, only magic happens – the magic of Christmas. “Pejzaż z Aniołem” is a touching novel, but at the same time full of faith and hope.

Małgorzata Musierowicz, “Noelka”

Musierowicz’s books themselves exude a family and warm atmosphere, and when their plot is based on Christmas – they reach the highest level of magic.

W. Bruce Cameron, “Dog’s Best. There Was a Dog for Christmas”

Is there anything more touching than a combination of a beautiful love story and puppies? I have sincere doubts. In this book, Josh and Kerri look after dog Lucy and her pack of babies who were born in a shelter. Together, they prepare them for the adoption program, and over time, they become more and more attached to the dogs and to each other. With Christmas, it is time to part with the pets and end their joint project, but neither of them is sure if they are ready for it.
