It’s almost Christmas in July!

I absolutely enjoyed The Christmas Yes List by Melissa Ferguson, releasing October 6, 2026. From the very first chapter, it captured that cozy, magical Christmas feeling that makes you want to curl up with a blanket and keep reading.

The story follows Chloe, who is determined to break free from her overthinking and people-pleasing tendencies by saying “yes” to opportunities she would normally avoid. I especially loved her as a main character—she was relatable, endearing, and easy to cheer for as she stepped outside her comfort zone.

Filled with humor, heart, and plenty of festive charm, this is a feel-good holiday read about courage, growth, and discovering who you are when you stop living to meet everyone else’s expectations. If you’re looking for a sweet Christmas romance that leaves you smiling, I highly recommend adding this one to your holiday reading list.
