A Christmas Visitor, book #35

Finally finished our Book Club book for the month.  Unfortunately it was after Book Club, but only one person had finished the book before our meeting.  But really, we only spend a fraction of the time on the book anyway.  :)


In this novel in Thomas Kinkade and Katherine Spencer’s holiday series, the residents of Cape Light discover joy in the most unexpected packages this Christmas… 
Molly knows she’s fortunate, but after raising children who are near adulthood, she is pregnant again. With her own life just taking off she can’t conceal her disappointment—and will have to explore what she truly needs to be happy to recapture her Christmas spirit. Meanwhile, Miranda has found an unconscious man in her orchard, and while she nurses him back to health, an unexpected attraction develops. Can she let uncertainty back in her life again? And Reverend Ben finds his own mystery, an abandoned wooden angel statue that people believe holds miraculous powers. He’d wished for more visitors, but his church turning into a tourist attraction is more a burden than a blessing. Christmas doesn’t always bring the things we ask for or expect. But sometimes it brings gifts more wonderful than we dreamed... (picture and description from Amazon)

Good news and bad news about this book:
1.  I really, really liked this book A LOT!!!  The story lines, the characters, the everything.
2. It is a series that has 17 books in it (most well over 200 pages each) and this is book 8.  As much as I would LOVE to read all of them, well, I'm not sure I can invest that much time, when there are over 200 other books calling to me also on my Paperwhite.  I could do an "off and on" read, like I did with the with Debbie Macomber books, but I'll have to think about that.  Hhm ...

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my faithful readers (ha!)!
