Nerski I have a couple faves I reread every Christmas:

What Child Is This by Caroline B Cooney. Kind of a surprising read, given the rest of her catalogue. It's a very short book with multiple POVs, centered around foster kids Matt (teen) and Katie (8) and the family of Liz (in Matt's class) and her married sister who has just recently lost her baby girl, Katie. They end up entangled when Liz's family picks out a wish on the Christmas tree at Matt's work "Katie, age 8, wants a family." It's sweet, it's sad, it will both make you cry and smile.

The Magical Christmas Cat - anthology. 4 short stories, all have romance, kitties, and Christmas. It's one of those fun books that's perfect to read curled up under a blanket, with a hot chocolate and a purring cat next to you. Christmas Bree by Erin McCarthy is my favorite of the four.

Silent Night (books 1 and 2) by R.L Stine. Part of the Fear Street Super Chiller series, both books focus on cousins: beautiful, cruel, rich Reva and poor, sweet, friendly Pam. The first book revolves around a series of increasingly alarming practical 'jokes' being played on Reva in revenge for her own cruel jokes at her daddy's department store, while Pam deals with escalating threats against her after being involved in a failed robbery. The second revolves around a group of kidnappers targeting the rich Dalby family.

Hope you enjoy them if you check them out!

R. Walraven Richard Paul Evans has four Christmas books. His KU books are relatively expensive so I buy the hardback book, read it, and gift it on to someone else. I love his writing.

Oh that one is really fun! The movie did a pretty good job adapting it too.


message 18: by Kristina (new)

Kristina Kamaeva I second Let It Snow: Three Holiday Romances - an enjoyable read.

Ember and the Ice Dragons by Heather Fawcett is a fun middle grade fantasy novel set in Antarctica.

White Witch's Hat & other Yuletide ghost stories - if you like dark and sad.

She Can Only Marry a Dragon: A Collection of Modern Fairy Tales - if you like "playful writing." These are short modern fairy tales that I wrote.
