You might remember that I really loved Jason Mankey\u2019s book \u201cWitch\u2019s Wheel of the Year\u201d<\/a>. If not, I loved it. I made sure to keep an eye out for what would be published from him next. When it turned out to be \u201cLlewellyn\u2019s Little Book of Yule\u201d, I reached out to Llewellyn for a copy, even though I expected it to just be a repacking of the Yule stuff from \u201cWitch\u2019s Wheel of the Year\u201d. I was wrong.<\/p>\n Honestly, don\u2019t go into the holiday season without \u201cLlewellyn\u2019s Little Book of Yule\u201d by Jason Mankey.<\/p>\n You can learn more here.<\/a><\/p>\n Shop your local indie bookstore<\/a> <---This is an affiliate link to IndieBound, which supports independent bookstores throughout the United States.

Considering how great \u201cWitch\u2019s Wheel of the Year\u201d was, I should have known that Mankey wouldn\u2019t just phone it in for \u201cLlewellyn\u2019s Little Book of Yule\u201d. What I wasn\u2019t prepared for was the sheer abundance of enthusiasm Mankey for all things winter holiday. Normally I don\u2019t look at reviews or ratings for books I plan on reviewing, but I couldn\u2019t help but notice that many readers were disappointed in the lack of laser focus on Yule. I suppose it\u2019s a fair criticism, considering the title is \u201cLlewellyn\u2019s Little Book of YULE\u201d, however, what some found a weakness I found a strength. Just like in \u201cWitch\u2019s Wheel of the Year\u201d, Mankey is effortlessly inclusive, working to make sure all holidays from right after American Thanksgiving through the New Year. In a world of overlapping religions and traditions, \u201cLlewellyn\u2019s Little Book of Yule\u201d does an excellent job guiding you in ways to incorporate as many, or as few, observances as you wish.<\/p>\n
