    (International mailing *sob* so don’t include me in the draw)

    I’m not sure I could name a holiday title, because I tend to fall in love with a series – which naturally include holiday books at times. I guess if I have to pick one I’ll nominate “Mistletoe and Murder” from the Daisy Dalrymple Series by Carola Dunn.

  7. I love Vicki Delany’s book series; I’ve read the first two and MUST get the third soon.

    Death of a Toy Soldier and Ginger Snapped are great titles, and sound like they would be fun reads! My favorite Christmas mystery is, ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas, by Clement Moore.

    Twelve drummers drumming by C. C. Benison , cosy featuring a Chaplin by the name of Father Tom Christmas raising a daughter following the unsolved murder of his wife.

  17. Avatar Alison DeVito says:

    I ordered Death of A Toy Soldier by Barbara Early for my library last year and absolutely loved it – the close relationship between the main character and her father really adds to the story. I can’t wait to read Murder on the Toy Town Express (hoping to get it for the library too)! I am also a huge fan of Donna Andrews – her Meg Langslow mysteries are terrific – I always save the holiday ones to read in December. How The Finch Stole Christmas! is next on my list. Looking forward to Vicki Delaney’s books too – always up for a new author!

  18. Avatar Brittany Abbott says:

    I don’t think I’ve ever read a holiday cozy… an oversight which should shortly be remedied.
