Waiting for Christmas

By Lynn Austin

MY REVIEW

Waiting for Christmas is a sequel to the terrific novel All My Secrets. I so enjoyed this lovely story. It was wonderful to re-visit the characters.

The added characters to this novella are really well done. I’m generally not a big fan of novellas, but I really enjoyed this one since I had already met the main characters. The author did a fabulous job of introducing the readers to the new characters, though, making the read cozy and so well written.

It’s a charming, warm story filled with the spirit of Christmas. Adelaide gets to really experience so many joys of the season that money just cannot buy. Howard loves showing his lovely wife the joys he experienced at Christmas time. I love children in stories so adding in children was just a super sweet treat on top of a lovely story.

It’s a wonderful novella that brings out the joy and meaning of Christmas. I highly recommend it.

A Christmas at Hotel del Coronado

By Kathleen Denly

MY REVIEW

Wonderful story of a daughter and her father spending a Christmas at a fancy hotel. The characters are incredibly well written in this novel. Who doesn’t love second chances, right? This read gives you a great second chance story.

I love the suspense in the story. It’s one of my favorite genres to read, and it is done well in this book. There are several twists and turns, and a terrific surprise for the readers. I knew something was going on with the characters, but one twist was a huge surprise! 

It has a fantastic faith theme, wonderful and fun characters, and enough suspense to keep the reader engaged and turning those pages! You don’t want to miss this wonderful Christmas novella!

Once Upon a Dicken’s Christmas

by Michelle Griep

REVIEW OF FIRST NOVELLA- 12 DAYS OF BLEAKLY MANOR

This is a short quick novella. I rarely thoroughly enjoy novellas as I did this one! There is so much mystery, suspense , intrigue, and romance packed into the pages of this enjoyable read. I’ve had it for a while, but I wanted to wait until closer to Christmas to read and review.

If you like novellas and shorter stories,I highly recommend this read. Great and interesting characters, much is hidden to be revealed at just the right time, and romance blossoms as well. Truly, this book is so well done considering the size…less than 200 pages. It’s a thoroughly enjoyable mystery read so go get it!!

REVIEW OF SECOND NOVELLA- A TALE OF TWO HEARTS

Another fantastic Christmas Novella from this author. I will readily admit that I’m not a fan of novellas, but I so enjoyed the first in this series, and I was eager to read the second.

Wonderful characters, great story, lovely faith theme, and much Dickens as well. To top it all off, of course a happier ever after….maybe for more than one thinks.

Terrific story.

I won one book and received one from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

MY REVIEW OF THE THIRD BOOK-THE OLD LACE SHOP

A wonderful Christmas novella by Michelle Griep! She creates fascinating stories even in novellas. That’s no small feat since I’m not a big fan of them. Such a sweet story…and I always love children in books! A sweet read that’s enjoyable,fun, and some wonderful Christian morals enter twined in the story. The little girl touched my heart.

This collection is a wonderful touch of Christmas for any reader. I thoroughly enjoyed each unique story…so go get it to enjoy a wonderful feeling of the Christmas spirit.
