Christmas books - age 18 but any recs welcome

[snowmanshoes]

I know I know that books are personal choice but I always get my eldest a couple of new books for Christmas and she looks forward to a read over Christmas so with that in mind and the fact that she reads a broad spectrum apart from biographies really, has anyone got any suggestions..,,
all ideas welcome
thank you

I've bought my 18yer old DD 'The Dalai Llama's Cat'. It's a great read.

So not necessarily books about or featuring Christmas? Simply a book for her Christmas.?

How old is the eldest?

Yes sorry doesn’t need to be Christmas themed just any recommendations please and she’s 18 soon to be 19 but reads a variety

How about Return to the Dallergut Dream Department Store?

Has she read any Georgette Heyer?
The Outlander books?
Any tv series she likes have associated books?
Pay for a kindle subscription for her? (If she doesn't have a kindle she can download the app to her phone)

Butter by Asako Yuzukiy is all over the place and my teenagers knew about it before I did which is saying something because I read a lot of translated fiction.

Really do agree, that book is everywhere and the OP's DD would probably enjoy it

The House in the Cerulean Sea
Indemnity Only - Sara Paretsky (first in a great series, independent female detective and not gory)
Horse - Geraldine Brook

Do you think she'd like any non-fiction OP?

One of these?

NYT Ten best books of 2024

Has she read Bear Town by Fredrik Backman or The Snow Child. Both are good winter reads.

I often read a long book in January, one of my favourites has been David Copperfield.

My 17yo has got the new Holly Jackson on her list - the reappearance of Rachel price

Lessons in Chemistry
The seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo

Thanks guys - a few of those mentioned I’ve come across so I’ll delve deeper and look at the others too
