The Book Vipers discussion

Please add your nominations here. Please remember books need to be available in all formats and at a reasonable price. This thread will close on Monday.

Boy Soldiers of the Great War goes through automatically, so does not need to be nominated again.

Categorising this one is tricky, but I am going to nominate it here: Letters from Father Christmas by J.R.R. Tolkien. These are the letters and responses between Tolkein's children and "Santa", which would be a magical read for December. Non-fiction as the book is detailing the real letters Tolkein wrote to his children but perhaps blurring into fiction as only Santa can!
