With everyone in the mood to cozy up with some hot chocolate and a blanket, I thought that it was more than appropriate to share with you twelve winter recommendations. Although most of them aren’t holiday themed, these are the perfect sorts of books to read by the fire, wrapped up in a sweater. Enjoy the cold!

This historical fiction gem is set during the winter, and it’s chilly descriptions will surely reflect the snow outside. And while yes, the subject matter is rather gloomy, what better to reflect he grays of winter? | Goodreads
Although I’m a fan of the regular book, I think that the graphic novel is particularly fitting for the holiday season. I’m not sure why, but this was one of the first books that came to mind when I started planning out this list. I think it was probably the endearing
illustrations | Goodreads
