About the event
Jolabokaflod: Christmas Book Flood
This is a wonderful gathering of people that love to read.
Bring one book wrapped, so no one can see what it is. Then we will all take turns picking up a wrapped book and you will go home with a new treasured book.
A little history:
Icelandic people celebrate Christmas each year by exchanging a book. This tradition is known as Jolabokaflod, which translates roughly to "Christmas book flood" in English.
Jolabokaflod started during World War II, when paper was one of the few things not rationed in Iceland. Because of this, Icelanders gave books as gifts while other commodities were in short supply, turning them into a country of bookaholics to this day.
