Cute boys, mistletoe, counting down to the midnight kiss on New Year's Eve there's no shortage of cozy setups for holiday romance in this captivating collection of short stories by a dozen of today's top YA authors. Readers will also find a broad cross-section of other emotions and relationships in these tales about the significance of varied holiday traditions. Jenny Han delivers a fantasy-tinged entry about a Korean girl left as an infant in Santa's sleigh, who is now the only human girl at the North Pole (and crushing on a cute elf). Kelly Link delves into supernatural territory, featuring a mysterious Christmas Eve visitor in an elegantly embroidered coat. And the Jewish narrator of David Levithan's story undertakes a wild nighttime mission, donning a Santa suit to help preserve a sense of Christmas magic for his boyfriend's young sister. A rare seasonal treat. Ages 13 up.
