The reading of Christmas books is taking longer this year, but I finished another one. Since I can't run to my local LifeWay store anymore, I've had trouble finding good Christian Christmas books, so I've just been hoping the ones I pick on Amazon are ok. I started one and said, Nope! so luckily it wasn't too expensive. We don't even have a local Books-a-Million anymore, only a Barnes & Noble about 30 minutes away and they don't have a Christian fiction section at all (boooo!) So, Amazon it is.
This one wasn't too bad, at least there was no foul language in it and not even too much drinking, but no mention of God or Jesus. I'd probably recommend it if you are looking for a Hallmark Movie type book.
Elizabeth Holloway's sparkling world comes crashing down around her when her boyfriend of seven years drops the bomb that he’s leaving her—at Christmas. In an attempt to piece her life back together, she suddenly finds herself seven hundred miles from her New York City home, trudging through the snow, back at her childhood farm in the Great Smoky Mountains. And she isn’t expecting to meet visitor Paul Dawson with his dazzlingly blue eyes and warm smile, chipping away at her resolve to focus on figuring out who she is and what she really wants in life. Just when she starts to think things are moving in the right direction, a stack of letters from Elizabeth’s grandmother will change everything she thought she knew about her family and cause a divide between her and Paul that she never saw coming. Under the glitter of Christmas trees and bundles of mistletoe, Elizabeth uncovers more than she’d ever imagined. Will the Christmas letters strip her of everything she holds dear? Or will they be the biggest gift of the season? (picture and description from Amazon)
I can probably read about one or two more before I start my Book Club Christmas book!
Keep Reading!
