HF with a Holiday Theme - updating our HT Recommends list

A few years ago we posted a list of books set during the Holiday Season. Some of us like to read these titles during this festive period and we wanted a master list to go to for recommendations. But quite a few books have been published since our original list was compiled and we thought that an update was in order.
