  4. I’m actually not a fan of holiday songs. Our traditions are pretty normal and tame.

    I’d pick Falling Kingdoms.

    Thanks for the chance to win!

  6. We have a few traditions in my family growing up, but I really enjoyed it when all the kids (there are only three of us lol) would sleep in the same room together and then wake one another up Christmas morning. It was so much fun talking in the middle of the night, wondering what Christmas was going to be like that year. I kind of miss being a kid because of that.

    I’ve totally had my eyes on Falling Kingdoms lately. Even the cover looks fantastic! Thanks very much for the giveaway!

  11. What’s your favorite/most unique winter/holiday/Christmas tradition?
    Spending time with family is my favorite Christmas tradition.

    Favorite holiday song?
    *Last Christmas* by WHAM!

    Which book would you pick?
    Opal

  18. I would love to read Falling Kingdoms, sounds enchanting! :)

    I love Josh Groban’s Noel album, perfect for Christmas! :)

  30. I don’t really like Christmas music, so no pick there…
    My family doesn’t do anything all that special, I guess. We just celebrate the evening of the 24th with my mum’s side and have a brunch on the 25 with my dad’s side, every year at another family member’s house. And we always have real christmas trees, because in our village every family can have one for free.
    I’d choose Falling Kingdoms, because I haven’t read an epic fantasy in a long time :) Thanks for the giveaway!

  38. A weird family Christmas tradition; all the cousins would go to the Cineplex to catch a movie on Christmas eve (Doesn’t seem to be too uncommon though ^) and my favourite song would have to be Baby Its Cold Outside (the original one)
    I’d pick Opal if I won

  39. I love going to church on Christmas Eve and then driving around town to look at all of the Christmas lights. I want to read ALL those books but I’ll say Opal to start. Thanks so much for the giveaway and Merry Christmas!:)

  40. would pick Falling Kingdoms! been a huge fantasy buff ever since reading the Study arc by Maria v Synder.

    I’d pick The Darkest Minds. =]

  49. I’d probably pick Opal. :)

    My hubby is Canadian, so he is used to opening presents on xmas day. To have a little bit of German tradition as well, everyone gets to open a present on xma eve. :) Oh, and I love celebrating Nikolaus on Dec 6th. 😀

  50. I have all kinds of Christmas traditions, and I love every Christmas song there is. In order to keep you from having to read a mile long list, I will give you the name of the book I would pick. Well, it is between Falling Kingdoms and Darkest Minds!

  70. Thanks for the fun giveaway! I would love to get my hands on Falling Kingdoms :) I love Christmas Music and I adore anything by Bing Crosby!

  80. I have no idea how this tradition started but every Christmas morning we have waffles with ice cream. It’s a bit strange lol but we look forward to it every year as a special treat.

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  82. My fav xmas tradition is that my family and I watch A Christmas Story every xmas all day long. :) I would def pick Falling Kingdoms!!

  89. We read the Christrmas story from the Bible each year before opening our gifts. We try to remember the true meaning of Chritsmas.

    Happy Holidays!

  121. My absolute favorite x-mas song is Merry Christmas, Darling by The Carpenters. Every time I hear it, it makes me feel happy and sad :-)

  124. I have an eight-year-old son and a three-year-old daughter. Every year for Christmas each of them get to choose an ornament to buy and hang on our Christmas tree, which we also date. Our plan is to collect enough ornaments throughout their childhood and then offer them as gifts when they are adults for their own trees and their new families.

    We also celebrate on Christmas Eve where we go first to church, have a meal, and then have the kids sing Jingle Bells around the Christmas tree just before 12:00 a.m., Christmas Day in order to let Santa “know where to visit.”

    After the children stop singing, Santa pays our family a very special visit—who is also presented with milk and cookies by the youngest in our Clan.

    Thanks for the giveaway!
