If you are looking for something on the theme of Nativity, St. Athanasius' "On the Incarnation" is a must-read.

"The Winter Pascha" is an excellent companion to the fasting and Chuch Services of this time. It is in a format that follows the days of the season from Nov 15th on.

Agreed on "The Winter Pascha". It's designed to be read as a companion to the feasts and days of the Nativity fast, a chapter or two for east feast.
