My jolabokaflod book and holiday read
#Jolabokaflod #amreading #book #bookstodon
I see that the made-up #jolabokaflod nonsense is appearing on social media again. 🤨
Credit goes to the kiddos for discovering who is really behind this holiday 😉
What do you think is in the bag? My guess is books.
Gleðileg jól!

@lisacordaro At a job I had a long time ago it became a competition among me and two co-workers to see who got the most books as Christmas gifts.
The other two usually won, as they had larger extended families, hence more gift opportunities. But one year I got a trilogy! Three books in one! And a couple more besides.
In the five or so years we all worked together there was never a year when any of us didn't get at least one book.

Starting a new tradition this Christmas Eve with #Jolabokaflod, the Icelandic Yule #bookflood
Gifts of #Books have been exchanged, new pajamas have been donned and now we’re spending the evening reading.

Happy #Jolabokaflod! We made our usual lasagna and now are relaxing with new books. Very excited about A Death in Door County, about a book store owner who is also a cryptozoologist.
If you stay ready, you don’t need to get ready
Happy Jolabokaflod, everyone

In Iceland on Christmas Eve, there's a wonderful tradition of giving new books as gifts, then getting cosy and settling down to read them together.
The Jólabókaflóð ('book flood') started in wartime, and continues today.
What better way to start the holiday than by curling up with a good book? ❤️

The teen has marzipanned and iced the #ChristmasCake. I’ve baked mince pies. I’ve made far too many blue cheese potato cakes for our lunch tomorrow. The sellotape has run out but I’ve found a new reel secreted in a drawer by an earlier incarnation of myself (I thought I’d finished wrapping, I was wrong.) I think it might be about time to break out the traditional viewing of #TheSnowman and declare ourselves ready for #Jolabokaflod this evening.

@bigbeardedbookseller I’m going to read Told After Supper by Jerome K. Jerome tonight before bed. My boy got a Jolabokaflod gift of the latest Cat Kid Comic Club book by Dav Pilkey which he devoured in one sitting. #jolabokaflod #Books
Tonight is Jolabokaflod, what are you reading and eating/drinking?
I’m going to start Godkiller by Hannah Kamer and get some hot chocolate on the go, tucked up on the sofa listening to a classical playlist

1. Received a sweet, surprise sentiment, from an online acquaintance, that is a gift of feeling belonging.
2. Made it to an outdoor event exchange to collect gifts and trade goodies hours before snowstorm.
3. Hot chocolate and a potent Fentiman's Ginger Brew, and nine books awaiting Jólabókaflóð - #jolabokaflod on 24 December 2022)
