Divine Rivals by Rebecca Ross
Two rival journalists are competing for the same columnist position in the Oath Gazette. While this at surface seems like a classic workplace enemies-to-lovers trope, the plot is much deeper. A story of fate, war, gods, and the depths of hell.
'Twas the night before Christmas ...

Who remembers Tiedtke's giant holiday cheese wheel? 🧀 Check out these photos from the 1950s. We love any holiday tradition that involves this much cheese! The popular cheese consistently sold out in two days or less each year. https://t.co/YwsoPdoIT3

Instarec by Sam P
The Christmas Guest by Peter Swanson
Spend the holidays in the English countryside with this epistolary, gothic novella with more twists than I thought was possible in under 100 pages. Ideal if you prefer darker tales like A Christmas Carol over Hallmark movies.
Hammers on Bone by Cassandra Khaw
This little book packs a punch in just 72 pages. Think detective noir meets Lovecraft's The Call of Cthulhu. There's plenty of action and cosmic horror that'll keep you reading from cover to cover. This is the first in a two-book series!
In the midst of the holiday hustle and bustle? Take some time for yourself to enjoy an audiobook!
Audiobooks are perfect for catching up on the latest books. When you use our new catalog, quickly see if we have an audiobook in hoopla or Libby for any title you are looking for.

Thistlefoot by GennaRose Nethercott
Wonderfully quirky and complex characters? ✅
Queer representation? ✅
An old, shabby hut that runs on chicken legs? Puppets that come to life? ✅ ✅
Despite its fantastical (and goofy) premise, it will surely pull on your heartstrings.
Screaming on the Inside: The Unsustainability of American Motherhood by Jessica Grose
