22 December on the #fantasyadvent: a special request from my nearly-10yo, it’s the Bunny vs Monkey series, by @jamiesmart. Every book includes a (hilarious!) #Christmas episode! 🐰🙊 (by the way, I may now be craving mince pies with a cherry on top!!!)

20 December on the #fantasyadvent: “The Snow Queen”, by Hans Christian Andersen, often published and illustrated as a standalone book. An absolute classic! Art: Vladyslav Yerko, Honor C. Appleton, Edmund Dulac, H.J. Ford ❄️🫅

19 December on the #fantasyadvent: an earlier “true story” of Santa Claus, this time by L. Frank Baum, author of the Oz books (illustr. Mary Cowles Clark). It follows Santa’s story from a foundling at the Forest of Burzee, to the Laughing Valley and old age. @UofGFantasy @FanLit
18 December on the #fantasyadvent: @matthaig1's A Boy Called Christmas, "the true story of Father Christmas", as per the first line of a story full of snow, elves, adventure, and an 11yo boy called Nikolas who believes in magic! My 10yo absolutely adored this one! @UofGFantasy
15 December on the #fantasyadvent: @BeatrixPotter’s The Tailor of Gloucester, in which a host of grateful mice help a poor tailor (who saved them from his cat!) finish a jacket + vest for the Mayor of Gloucester, who is to be married on #Christmas Day! 🐁🎄🧵🪡❄️🐈⬛ @UofGFantasy
12 December on the #fantasyadvent: a Dickensian Christmas story (NOT A Christmas Carol!) with an unexpected #Tolkien link: “The Story of the Goblins who stole a Sexton”, chapter 29 of The Pickwick Papers (https://t.co/NoLMKF80R1).

3 December on the #fantasyadvent: @FisherAuthor’s The Clockwork Crow. A beautiful Gothic story, featuring a feisty Victorian orphan girl, a lost boy, a haunting manor, scary Welsh fairies (the #tylwythteg), plenty of snow, all coming together at Christmas!
@UofGFantasy ❄️ ⛄️ 🏴
Day 3 of #indieadvent: Let's go way back to 2014 and what I think was the first indie book I ever read. It's now a whole epic saga with book 18 coming out soon. (At least I think it's 18? Seriously, 18 books?! Holy shit!)
I've enjoyed coming along for the ride all the way.
2 December on the #fantasyadvent: Winter gatherings and celebrations at Brambly Hedge! (Yes, that’s a prime example of miniature fantasy, what my next book is about!)
