One of our favorite family traditions every year is our own take on the Jólabókaflóð. We sit around with a roaring fire and warm beverages, and read books to ourselves and our kids. For me this year, some moral philosophy, social horror, and science fiction. We are book lovers to our core. 📚🔥

Este año me he debido portar bien, porque Santa Claus ha sido muy generoso. Esta edición de “La princesa prometida” es una maravilla.

We are starting a new Christmas Eve tradition, we had hot chocolate and read new books (or at least unread previously).
I chose The Last American Road Trip by @sarahkendzior.bsky.social , whose writing is amazing.

Jólabókaflóð, or the "Christmas Book Flood," is a beloved Icelandic tradition where books are exchanged as gifts on Christmas Eve, and the night is spent reading and drinking hot chocolate.
Icelanders are awesome. I need to move there.

Truth. Ebooks are rad.
We are enjoying Jolabokafloð, the tradition of reading together on Christmas Eve. I’ve got a Slough House novel; Kimberly and Levi are reading some nonfiction. There are cookies and hot chocolate. Hope y’all have a lovely one.

A repost reminder:
It is traditional in Iceland to give the gift of a book to be opened on Christmas Eve. Books are unwrapped and then read together. It is called Jolabokaflod (Christmas book flood). 📖 🎄

Really looking forward to tonight. We follow the Icelandic tradition of Jólabókaflóð, literally 'Christmas book flood'. Rather than watching regrettable repeats on TV, you give each other a book and then settle down with a nice hot chocolate to read them. It's fab! 📚
