My seasonal pick is Winter Garden by Kristin Hannah. Meredith and her sister Nina have been regaled by their Russian mother's fairy tales for years, but after trying to reenact one of their
favorites for a holiday party, Anya inexplicably flies into a rage. Years pass, and the two sisters couldn't be more different in how they live their lives. A family emergency brings them together and on his deathbed, their father makes Anya tell the story again to the girls - but this time she must tell it "to the end". In the telling, the sisters realize the secret their otherwise cold mother kept all of those years, a tale of tragedy, pain and loss.
