My True Love Gave to Me: Twelve Holiday Stories edited by Stephanie Perkins

Rating: 3.41/5 stars

Okay, after reading this, my favorite turned into:

1. "Star of Bethlehem" by Ally Carter. (5/5 stars)
It's a heartwarming story though the idea isn't really original. I have read several stories about the girls who swapped places. But it still makes me enjoy reading it.

2. My second favorite is "It’s a Yuletide Miracle, Charlie Brown" by Stephanie Perkins (5/5 stars)
I loved her Anna and the French Kiss series especially Anna and Isla's books.
She always manages to have that cuteness on her writing. North, oh I loved North! Where I can find a charming boy who sells Christmas trees??? LoL

3. Polaris is Where You'll Find Me - Jenny Han (4.5/5 stars)

4. Midnights by Rainbow Rowells (4.5/5 stars)

5. What the Hell Have You Done, Sophie Roth? by Gayle Forman (4.5/5 stars)

6. Welcome to Christmas, CA by Kiersten White (4/5 stars)

7. The Girl Who Woke the Dreamer by Laini Taylor (3.5/5 stars)

8. Angels in the Snow by Matt De La Pena (3/5 stars)

9. The Lady and the Fox by Kelly Link (2/5 stars)

10. Beer Bucket and Baby Jesus by Myra Mcentire (2/5 stars)

11. Krampuslauf by Holly Black (2/5 stars)

12. Your Temporary Santa by David Levithan (1/5 stars)
This was my first LGBT reading material. I've read few times about gay couples as supporting character but never read as main character. To be honest, to say I was bit surprised while reading it was understated. Now, one year later, I've read few LGBT and I guess I have a better understanding of it.
