It’s the best time of year to cozy up with a book, and you can really get into the spirit of the season by choosing a story that’s set in winter in Maine. These titles span decades and genres, including murder mystery, animal research, personal commentary, children’s and more. They’re only commonality is that they are all based in our own snowy backyards.

Myfavorite read in 2023…This novel set in Sri Lanka blends murder mystery with historical fiction and upends expectations at every turn. The story opens with anti-hero Maali waking up to find he's a ghost. I was immediately in his corner despite his being a shady character.
