What I want to know today is … what are the most “wintery” books you can think of? The ones that almost embody Winter?
(Personally, “A Winters Tale” by Mark Helprin pretty much nails this for me, and “Smilla’s Sense of Snow” was right up there…)
I couldn't think one with the word of 'winter' or 'snow'. But I remembered, my grown-up book that I had loved the most. It was 'The Christmas Book' by Enid Blyton. I read this book as a youngster and I could say this one could be linked with Winter.
What's yours?
Happy BTT!

I love the cover! Merry Christmas.
Hadn't heard of that one - I've just discovered Enid Blyton, never read any of her books when I was a child. But that really is a wonderful cover. Have a Happy Christmas Day!
I love Enid Blyton. I too mentioned this book.
My BTT post is up!

Wintery Books
It looks like a lovely book.
Happy Holidays!
The cover is absolutely gorgeous! I'm going to check this out for my friend, her two little boys would love it!!
Merry Christmas!
I used to read Enid Blyton as a child. I love the stories. She does tell alot of stories that are set in winter and Christmas.
For some reason, whenever I think of wintry books, I think of Doctor Zhivago' probably because I remember the movie and all the snow.
