Bookish Musings: What Makes a Christmas Book?

Normally I do recommendation posts with SFF Christmas books once December rolls around, but I'm not really feeling up to putting one of those together.

They're all fantastic, and some of them are among my absolute favorites. So if you haven't read them yet, but you like queer books and books set in outer space, consider giving these a...
