Family is great and all, but every once in a while, it is nice to escape the family chaos of the holidays, and sit by the fireplace with a good book.

We have picked some of the books we’ve been piling into our Goyard totes to share with you. These suspenseful non-fiction books are hardly anything like the usual holiday reading suspects.

The Witch: And Other Tales Re-Told, Jean Thompson

Your favourite fairy tales brought into our modern lives. It’s a bit terrifying, so don’t plan on sharing this with the kids in your family.

The Fever: A Novel, Megan Abbott

A chilling novel about a contagion spreading through a family. Grandma, please use hand sanitizer before you hug me.

The Good Girl , Mary Kubica

A one-night-stand gone wrong. It will make you think twice before your New Years Eve kiss.
