#BookFaceFriday “Winter, White and Wicked” by Shannon Dittemore

Posted on January 1, 2021 by Tessa Timperley

Oh, the #BookFaceFriday outside is frightful!

“Mad Max: Fury Road meets Frozen” seems to be the simplest way to sum up this YA fantasy read. Some say this is also how they would describe 2020. Here at NLC we prefer to embark on a new year by setting fresh reading goals or a new reading challenge! If you’re trying to read a certain number of books this year, the library is the easiest way to make that happen, don’t forget to check out ebooks and audiobooks from Nebraska OverDrive Libraries. Find titles like “Winter, White and Wicked” by Shannon Dittemore, available as an ebook, today.

“This magical story, teeming with grim lore, grotesque monsters, and gripping mysticism, swept me up like a winter gale and wouldn’t let me go. It was a privilege to meet Sylvi—a heroine as fierce and boundless as an arctic tundra—and to witness the thawing of her icy heart as she learns the value of friendship, found-family, and faith. Winter, White and Wicked transported me on a gritty, action-packed, and atmospheric journey across a wickedly glacial landscape, and I can’t wait to return again!” —A. G. Howard
