Need a Christmas book club suggestion please

[Queenfreak]

Just that really.
I know Dickens is the obvious suggestion, but I'm looking for something different.
Any genre, except mills and boon type stuff. X
TIA

Hogfather by Terry Pratchett?

[Queenfreak]

Oooh yes! Great suggestion. Thanks stitchesinTime

I like Mr Dickens And His Carol by Samantha Silva. It’s a fictionalised story about Dickens writing A Christmas Carol and it’s lovely!

'A Good Man in Africa' by William Boyd is set the week before Christmas. Not your typical Christmas novel though .

They are children's books, but I love John Masefield, notably The Box of Delights, which is set in winter. If you did it with its prequel you'd probably have enough to discuss at a book group.

@CountFosco that novel made me literally cry with laughter.

We all enjoyed "Hercule Poirot's Christmas."

Two very different books, both set in Alaska in winter:

Snow Falling on Cedars by David Guterson, is excellent. Atmospheric and involving, based around a murder trial but much more than a crime novel.

Or The Snow Child by Eowen Ivey is a more of a fairytale if you are looking for a lighter read.
