Rest Ye Murdered Gentlemen looks fun! I almost bought that one last year around this time when I was looking for a Christmas- themed mystery. I still kinda want to get it. 🙂
Away in a Manger looks fun too.

Great list! I’m pleased to see you enjoyed Spinning Silver; I’m planning to read it over Christmas and I’ve seen quite mixed reviews so far. The Toymakers is on my TBR, too!

Yeah, I can definitely see why it wouldn’t be for everyone. I hope you enjoy it though!

Aaww, I love the Cat of Yule Cottage cover. But then, cats on book covers usually make me smile, so…

The Cat of Yule Cottage sounds fantastic. But then, I might be currently influenced by the cat on my lap. And I’ve been meaning to read The Toymakers, too.
So many winter books to get through!
