I ran into a problem when I finished my last book. I had no new Christmas books to read! I have several new books I am anxious to start on, but during the months of November and December I need to read Christmas books. So I went on my ever faithful Amazon and found this little goody! Back in 2013 I came across the Blossom Street series by Debbie Macomber and thoroughly loved them! I have another one in the series beside my bed for "just the right time" but when I found this one (and for only $5.99!) I knew I had to get it!
It was a delightful, if not predictable, little book. I'm not entirely sure how the title is a good "summary" of the book, but don't let it fool you. Read it anyway, you won't be disappointed!
Katherine O'Connor often spends her days at a cozy café on Blossom Street in Seattle—where she writes Christmas letters for other people. She's good at making their everyday lives sound more interesting. More humorous. More dramatic. But for Dr. Wynn Jeffries, who also frequents the café, Christmas means lies and deception. In fact, the renowned child psychologist recommends that parents "bury Santa under the sleigh." Katherine, however, feels that his parenting philosophy is one big mistake—at least, based on her five-year-old twin nieces, who are being raised according to his "Free Child" methods. She argues with Wynn about his theories, while he argues that her letters are nothing but lies. They disagree about practically everything—and yet, somehow, they don't really want to stop arguing. As the days—and nights—move closer to Christmas, Katherine and Wynn both discover that love means accepting your differences. And Christmas is about the things you share….
