It may be early, but I second The Monuments Men! It's been on my TBR list for a long time :)

A Redbird Christmas
It's pretty short, it's Christmasy, and I've had it sitting on my shelf for years but haven't gotten around to reading it :-P

Kelsey I think you accidentally deleted mine, StarMan. No worries! I'm nominating The Thirteenth Tale again. When I read it, it was in December, and it was the perfect cozyish mystery!

Thanks, Kelsey! I was pretty sure I accidentally deleted something! Sorry... and thanks for re-posting 'The 13th Tale'

How can anyone NOT want to read about weiner dogs?

Lily and the Octopus by Steven Rowley

Side note:  Someone once told me he thought aliens had been on Earth for some time, in disguise, and had already subdued us to their whims. He pointed to the nearest miniature daschund -- and the people oooohing and aaaahing over it -- as irrefutable proof.

Just a heads up, the last time I looked into reading Lily and the Octopus there was a pretty lengthy wait list at my library...

Oh no, really?? At mine, the last I was there, the audiobook was available at least! Hmm...I guess we will have to just see?? There is still time for nominations at any rate! :)
