Goodreads Members Suggest: Favorite Winter Reads

Posted by Sharon on December 1, 2020


This year, we've all got more reason than usual to hunker down inside during the coldest months. Thankfully, those teetering WTR stacks can keep us company.

And if you need help adding yet more books to your Want to Read shelf, your fellow Goodreads members are here to help!

We asked our trusty followers on Twitter and Facebook what books they like to turn to in the winter season. Some readers prefer snuggling up with steamy romances, while others prefer blood-chilling thrillers. And nearly all respondents agreed that hefty classics, fiction set in snowy vistas, and cozy mysteries never go amiss. Check out their suggestions below!

Vicki The Talisman Ring, by Georgette Heyer, is a classic Regency romance/mystery about folks snowed in at an inn.

See also my Listopia lists, "Ski Reads" and "Books to Read Some December."

Tina D Smilla's feeling for snow by Peter Hoeg is a brilliant winter read.

Leigh I would add The Thirteenth Tale and Once Upon A River by Diane Setterfield. Specific to Christmas, I always enjoy Immoveable Feast by John Baxter and a more recent discovery was Nigel Slater's The Christmas Chronicles.
