It is the most wonderful time for the year~!
In honor of the holiday season, I made a wallpaper of My True Love Gave To Me! I thought it would be quite fun to use the cover illustration, the chapter headings, and the Twelve Days of Christmas song to spotlight this very cute book. (I know that everybody doesn’t celebrate Christmas, and I wanted to be inclusive of all holidays around this season, but I really wanted to use the song. :P)
Thank you to St. Martin’s Griffin for sending me a copy of the book. I’ve been meaning to get this last year. :)
Shall we take a look at the wallpaper? Sing along to the Twelve Days of Christmas song but with the things below instead. ;) (It probably won’t be rhythmically in sync, but hey, it’s a holiday experiment!)

I immediately downloaded and changed my wallpaper because it is ADORABLE! Also, I have read My True Love Gave To Me! I didn’t enjoy all stories equally, but it’s a pretty unique collection ;)
Those illustrations in the book are adorable! I love it when they put so much work in the design :) And that is such a cute wallpaper *downloads*
Ahhhh it’s so lovely! All you creative people making lovely things, I’m so admiring of your talent :)
I read My True Love Gave To Me last christmas season and I loved it! Some of the stories weren’t really for me if I’m honest but I found so many authors whose writing I absolutely adored which is always a bonus. But then again, give me the christmas romance and I’m yours.
I adore that wallpaper! I read this book last year and it was a delight! I of course liked some stories more than others but overall it was a good read. Happy holidays!
Gorgeous wallpaper. I haven’t read the book yet, but I’ve been eyeing it for a while. Maybe soon!
Ermagerd everything about this post is so cute. I love all the pictures! <3
