Puzzling Pieces #HoHoHoRAT 2018

It's finally time for the Ho Ho Ho Readathon hosted by the Caffeinated Reviewer! I'm really looking forward to diving into some winter wonderlands! It still doesn't feel like winter in Texas, but that's not going to stop me from pretending like it's snowing and wishing for a cup of hot chocolate.

If you want to read my original challenge post, please click here. There's a list of the books I want to read, and it's also going to be where I update all of my progress (there's also an image in the sidebar you can click on). I know my list is long, but I wanted to have options!

My challenge for this readathon is a puzzle, and the rules are simple:

1. You have to be a #HoHoHoRAT participant. If you still need to sign up for the readathon, you can do that here.
2. Solve the puzzle! What book is hidden below?

I want this to be fair for everyone, so please only submit your answers within the rafflecopter form. Do not leave your answers (or even guesses) in the comments -- it would spoil the fun for others!

This readathon is about reading winter and holiday books, and I'm looking forward to experiencing snow through fictional characters. Kimberly has really gone above and beyond for the #HoHoHoRAT. There will be challenges, prizes, and even a Twitter Party (November 18th at 3:30 pm (EST). Don't miss out on all the fun!

I know this is a long list, and there is no way I'll be able to read all of them in nine days, but I wanted to give myself options. I'm 85% sure all of these meet the criteria of being a holiday or winter theme, but there are one or two I'm unsure about. If you've read one of these, and know for a fact is has nothing to do with winter or the holidays, please let me know and I will remove it from the list.

I included two re-reads that I would love to get to! They're both books I really enjoyed in the past. Also, if you're curious about my progress, you can always click on the image in the sidebar and it will redirect you to this post.

If you're using my Book Blogger Icon Tags, I made a few specifically for the Ho Ho Ho Readathon! 

Kimberly has also made an adorable button for everyone to use! If you use it, make sure you give her credit and link back to her Ho Ho Ho Readathon post!
