Rereading The Catcher in the Rye.
winter reads - december 2025 to february 2026
I’m not a fan of winter. I hate the cold and the darkness and I’ve been anxious for spring since late November. So this year I decided to embrace the season and focus on reading (or re-reading) books on my TBR with a winter setting. And coincidentally, the rereads fit perfectly with the January Re-readathon by @logarithmicpanda!
The books above:
Snowblooded by Emma Sterner-Radley
The Wood At Midwinter by Susanna Clarke ❄️
The Glass Woman by Caroline Lea ❄️
North is the Night by Emily Rath
Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett (reread)
Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik (reread)
Additionally, as a library ebook:
Drive Your Plow Over The Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk ❄️
❄️ = finished already
bonus: look at the gorgeous sprayed edges on North is the Night!
need an absolutely miserable, devastating (preferably gay) holiday/winter book akin to these violent delights & the holdovers that feels like all of phoebe bridgers’ christmas singles. and also like the ending scene of call me by your name.
and also a little bit of tis the damn season by taylor swift.
any suggestions??
the start to my winter tbr
My Winter TBR
༻ ❀ • ❀ • ❀ ༺
The first university semester of the year is coming to a close, winter break is fast approaching, and with it my chance to read more than I have in months.
My (temporary) freedom is only a week and one research essay away so, as the truly unemployed individual I am, I’m making this list to share what I have planned to read over my winter break!
I do have to say i’m appreciating Australian universities closing over the June-July period because it means I don’t have to slog across campus in the cold and the rain. And thankfully, I’m yet to make my transition from the arts faculty into the science degree I plan to move into, so I don’t have exams! Huzzah!
༻ ❀ • ❀ • ❀ ༺
Anyway, here is my current winter TBR list (not my entire existing TBR, just what I plan to read over winter!):
• This Woven Kingdom (Tahereh Mafi) • These Infinite Threads (Tahereh Mafi) • All This Twisted Glory (Tahereh Mafi) • Every Spiral of Fate (Tahereh Mafi) • An Enchantment of Ravens (Margaret Rogerson) • Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries (Heather Fawcett) • Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands (Heather Fawcett) • Emily Wilde’s Compendium of Lost Tales (Heather Fawcett) • The Sun and the Starmaker (Rachel Griffin)

PS: I just ordered an Enchantment of Ravens because it was recommended by one of my favourite book influencers thejayceelane, if you like fun book recommendation content I highly suggest checking her Insta or TikTok out!!
