This was our delightful pick for our January Book Club. We always read two Christmas books, one picked for December and one picked for January since we still have half of December to read the one for January!
It was a quick read, mainly because I read most of it while I was in bed with a migraine all day Sunday. That part wasn't fun, but I just transported myself to this lovely place as I was writhing in pain and couldn't sleep anymore.
It reminded me of where I want to spend next Christmas. Christmas at home is fun, don't get me wrong, but I have washed more dishes and made more messes in the last week than I want to again, for, say, another year!
A New England inn seems like the picture-perfect place to spend the holidays. But when a snowstorm shuts the roads and keeps them all inside, the guests find themselves worrying that this Christmas may not be exactly what they dreamed of. Molly just needs to keep her head down and finish her latest book, but her writer’s block is crippling. The arrival of Marcus, a handsome widower with two young girls, is exactly the distraction she doesn't need. Hannah was hoping for a picturesque winter wedding, but her plans come crashing down when her fiancé calls everything off. She reconnects with her childhood friend, Luke, when he comes to check on his grandmother before the storm. Jeanne and Tim don't know how they're going to keep the inn open another year—or how to bridge the distance between them in their marriage. With a flurry of unexpected guests, they'll have to work together to fix all the problems that crop up. But will it be enough to rekindle their relationship? As the characters’ stories intertwine, they start to find hope where they thought it had been lost. With faith, and a little bit of Christmas magic, the inn—and its inhabitants—might just make it through the holidays after all. (picture and description from Amazon)
Luckily, since it it still Christmastide and I have a few more days off I'm hoping to squeeze in another Christmas book before the season ends.
Happy Reading!
