There's a lot to pick from, so let's just say for the moment... Olympia Binewski McGurk from Katherine Dunn's novel Geek Love. She balances a legacy of familial chaos that would overwhelm most folks. https://t.co/VRanKkTgMC #AskALibrarian https://t.co/urjteJNgXl

Take a look at White Is for Witching by Helen Oyeyemi. It's has some of eerie vibes you may be looking for and doesn't seem like it'll have you keeping the lights on at night. https://t.co/pOtpFQHJ7t #AskALibrarian https://t.co/X3PyG9uUMO

It's not winter without a sled ride... Edith Wharton's Ethan Frome clocks in at 99 pages. It's not the cheeriest tale, but could be a good year ending read: https://t.co/kegPb2cS7v #AskALibrarian https://t.co/DCVjpOb8ED
