Ok maybe it’s a little early to go full Buddy the Elf in your living room (although no judgment if you have already decked the halls!) but Starbucks holiday beverages are officially here. No one can be a grinch with a festive drink in hand, and a new book to curl up with! So pick a drink and we’ll tell you which book to treat yourself to first. (Because we know you’re going to want to read them all!)<a href="https://www.thenovl.com/landing-page/novl-series-page-the-folk-of-the-air/">The Folk of the Air </a>by <a href="https://www.thenovl.com/contributor/holly-black/">Holly Black</a>At this point, the Peppermint Mocha is a Starbucks holiday classic, and Holly Black’s Folk of the Air has earned classic status on bookshelves. Plus, what better way to prepare for 2023’s The Stolen Heir than a reread?<a href="https://www.thenovl.com/titles/zoulfa-katouh/as-long-as-the-lemon-trees-grow/9780316351379/">As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow</a> by <a href="https://www.thenovl.com/contributor/zoulfa-katouh/">Zoulfa Katouh</a>Crème Brulee is a divine dessert with rich custard and a hard crystallized sugar top—as in literally hardened from fire. Zoulfa’s debut novel has characters hardened by the devastating events that come with a revolution…but crack through that and you’ll find a story rich with hope, burning passion, and sweet moments.<a href="https://www.thenovl.com/landing-page/series-theinheritancegames/">The Inheritance Games</a> by <a href="https://www.thenovl.com/contributor/jennifer-lynn-barnes/">Jennifer Lynn Barnes</a>To be completely honest, you need to inherit a billionaire’s fortune to be able to afford any of these drinks. But if you’re splurging (fully support! Treat yourself!) something about chestnut and praline sounds especially elegant, and especially perfect for sitting in a fancy chair and devouring this series.<a href="https://www.thenovl.com/titles/val-emmich/maybe-were-electric/9780316535687/">Maybe We’re Electric</a> by <a href="https://www.thenovl.com/contributor/val-emmich/">Val Emmich</a>A white chocolate mocha for imagining the complete whiteout conditions of a blizzard. Except you’re toasty warm inside, reading Val Emmich’s emotional and charming novel.<a href="https://www.thenovl.com/titles/james-patterson/the-girl-in-the-castle/9780316411721/">The Girl in the Castle</a> by <a href="https://www.thenovl.com/contributor/james-patterson/">James Patterson</a> and Emily RaymondWhen I think of cold brew, I think of a strongly caffeinated, bold beverage. And trust me when I say you are going to need it because you are going to pick this book up, and keep turning the pages, forgoing sleep until you reach the end. And you still won’t see the end coming.<a href="https://www.thenovl.com/titles/lane-clarke/love-times-infinity/9780759556706/">Love Times Infinity</a> by <a href="https://www.thenovl.com/contributor/lane-clarke/">Lane Clarke</a>If you like something that is at once refreshing but also bold and layered, LOVES TIMES INFINITY is the perfect treat. As Ashley Woodfolk says, “"Come for the sweet-as-sugar romance; stay for the gorgeous prose, nuanced characters, and a deeply satisfying read.”Choose a Holiday Drink!
