Library Tuesday

A very quick trip to the library today netted only one book:

Cassandra Clare - Clockwork Angel
This looks interesting. It's the first book in a prequel trilogy. The library does not seem to have any of the original trilogy (Mortal Instruments). Could be steam punk. Could just be neo-Victorian. I'm not sure - it's got paranormal stuff, it's set in Victorian London, it's YA. I'll let you know.

Other thoughts - we approach Christmas, and there are some books that I tend to read right around Christmas - The Shepherd, and Hogfather, possibly some others. Are there books that you read at Christmas? Hanukkah? Solstice? Kwanzaa? Some other holiday, even some other time of the year? I'd love to hear about them.
