Although I'm a firm believer of reading anywhere in any type of weather, there's something particularly comforting about curling up in your home on a really cold day to read a great novel. A cup of tea or a glass of wine, some really comfy clothing and the coziest blanket paired with a great book really can't be beat. So, just in case you need a little help picking out the book (sorry, I can't help you with the wine), here are the novels we are most excited to read over the next couple of months.
The Fire by Night by Teresa Messineo
Teresa Messineo first got the idea for writing The Fire by Night ($22) after nurses began telling their war-time stories in 2005 (prior to that they signed oaths of secrecy which prohibited them from disclosing details of their service). The author spent seven years researching and listening to these stories, and the result is a novel that focuses on two American army nurses on the front lines in Europe during World War II. Any novel that gives attention and agency to silenced groups is a win in our book”and this one places the women of the war effort center stage.
