This week's Top Five Wednesday topic is "Books to Have When Snowed In".
1. If I could only have five books when snowed in, I'd want at least one big book, so I'd definitely want this huge collection. I have the Big Book of Female Detectives, and it's great fun, so I'm certain that the Big Book of Christmas Mysteries would be perfect for a snowstorm!
2. Being snowed in would be a perfect time to reread Jane Austen. (Of course, when isn't the perfect time to reread Jane Austen?) I'd pick Emma for this occasion, as an important scene features a Christmas party with a snowstorm.
3. Another book that screams winter is Dracula (it actually screams a lot of things, but icy cold weather is one of them). Being snowed in is a great time for a thriller, and this five star read (my review here) would fit the bill.
