Summary

From Parks and Recreation star Aubrey Plaza and creative partner Dan Murphy comes the long lost tale of the Christmas Witch, Santa Claus's much misunderstood twin sister。

Gather 'round the fire to hear a Christmas legend that has never been told before。。。until now。 Each year a mysterious figure sweeps into town, leaving behind strange gifts in the night。 No, not Santa Claus, but his sister。。。

The Christmas Witch。

Her story begins many, many years ago when her brother was torn away from her as a child。 Raised alone by a witch of the woods, Kristtōrn's powers of magic grew, as did her temper。 Determined to find her long lost twin, she set out on a perilous journey across oceans to find him。 But what she found instead was a deep-seated fear of her powers and a confrontation that would leave the fate of Christmas hanging in the balance。

From award-winning producer and actress Aubrey Plaza and her creative partner Dan Murphy comes a holiday story unlike any told before。 With all the richness of classic folklore, they've woven a tale of bravery, love and magic。 Whatever you thought you knew about Christmas。。。think again。

I loved this tale of Kris Kringle’s sister。 Would love to see a movie of this! I did think the ending would be more of a happy one, but interesting nonetheless。

Thank you to Penguin Random House Audio for the complimentary audiobook of The Legend of the Christmas Witch!First off, I love Aubrey Plaza so obviously when I saw her name on the cover of a picture book I just knew I had to read it。 Also, she narrates the audiobook。 Second, um, duh the words Christmas Witch in the title made this a done deal。 I absolutely adore this story & feel like the Christmas Witch is something everyone should know about。 The only thing that bums me out is that I missed ou Thank you to Penguin Random House Audio for the complimentary audiobook of The Legend of the Christmas Witch!First off, I love Aubrey Plaza so obviously when I saw her name on the cover of a picture book I just knew I had to read it。 Also, she narrates the audiobook。 Second, um, duh the words Christmas Witch in the title made this a done deal。 I absolutely adore this story & feel like the Christmas Witch is something everyone should know about。 The only thing that bums me out is that I missed out on the illustrations since I listened to the audiobook, but don't worry, I'm gonna fix that problem soon。 。。。more

Enchanting story that feels like it came straight out of folklore。 The illustrations are gorgeous。 Need an animated movie adaptation ASAP!Thank you so much to the publisher for providing me with this eARC via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review!

This book is very much my aesthetic。 I read an e-ARC but will definitely need to get this one in print。 🥰 I was going to give this 4 stars but the art is so good and so cozy that I had to go with 5 in the end。

I'm going to need an animated movie of the Christmas Witch, and then a sequel, The Rise of the Christmas Witch。 And I hope she goes for Santa himself first。 He's been naughty and not so nice。 I'm going to need an animated movie of the Christmas Witch, and then a sequel, The Rise of the Christmas Witch。 And I hope she goes for Santa himself first。 He's been naughty and not so nice。 。。。more
