Festive books

[Cheguevarahamster]

I need to pick a book for our Book Club with a festive theme. Could be a ghost story or a book set at Christmas /winter time. Previously we have read the Hogfather and The Mistletoe bride.

Any suggestions, you lovely people?

Andrew Taylor's Fireside Gothic?

Georgette Heyer 'a Christmas party'

Susan Cooper - The Dark is Rising. Technically a children’s book but that doesn’t matter.

Mystery in White is a great Christmassy read, but its suitability as a reading group book would depend on the type of reading group - do you love to have a huge amount of literary points to discuss for hours or do you chat a bit about a book then drink wine and have a banter?

Just popping a message to follow. I like a festive read. Even if I get jealous of all the snow!

Thanks guys. Yes we are a more chat about the book a bit then general banter.....
