Once Upon a Christmas Carol, book #48

 



Cute fun book I snuck in in-between reading all the Hometown Christmas Dreams Series, which apparently has vanished from Amazon.  Good thing it is downloaded on my Paperwhite!  

Anyhow, Hometown Christmas Dreams actually has EIGHT books in it, and I am afraid I will not get all the way through before I need to start on my January books!  I knew I needed to read this one for book club for sure before Christmastide got away from me, so after I finished two books in the HCD books, I went ahead and read this one.  Since it is a short novella I literally read it in one day.  I enjoyed it, but I kept getting it mixed up with the second story I had just finished in HCD! 

Carol Langstrom hates Christmas. Growing up in a dysfunctional home, with a birthday on December 25 and too many dashed childhood expectations, she would rather avoid the holiday season. And working in the design industry where she manages seasonal decor for wealthy, entitled clients certainly hasn't helped!   So, this year her goal is to flee to the Bahamas--by herself--bah humbug! But bad weather and God's radically different plan redirect her flight to blustery Michigan, where she gets stuck on her aunt's farm and discovers a different kind of Christmas--one wrapped in love, family, and holiday spirit. (picture and description at Amazon)

I am not sure how many more stories I will get through in HCD before I need to start on my January books, and I have a list started already!  When I finish my Christmas books I'll let you know our new plan for Book Club this year!  I'm excited!

Stay cozy!
