Debbie Macomber Christmas
Never have been a big fan of love type books or romance novels or anything of the sort, but Hallmark Christmas movies (some) started catching my eye a few years ago. For a long time, family members had read Debbie Macomber and recommended it. This blogger never did though, until now. After viewing the Mrs. Miracle movies, Call Me Mrs. Miracle, storyline was just amazing and so heartwarming. So, when ordering the first book for this Holiday Season (prior to Halloween), Call Me Mrs. Miracle was the one and it is well worth it.
The storyline of a down on her luck aunt who is taking care of her nephew while her brother is deployed really hits home. As a former military spouse, one for 9 years, deployments were extremely hard on the kids, especially at Christmas. It is difficult to find help, to see family sometimes (especially when living half way around the world or country), and it really is not the same. For the young nephew, Gabe, in Macomber's 2nd book of the series, it was no different. During the season, Aunt Holly ends up struggling with her career, questioning her parenting skills, falling in love, and stressing about affording Gabe's Christmas present. Thankfully, Mrs. Miracle has a plan.
Now that this book has been read, I cannot wait to read Mr. Miracle and other books by Macomber. Even so, if there is one book to read this Christmas, that will put you in the mood for snow, Christmas lights and decorations, and the desire to slow down and enjoy the season, it is this one. Merry Christmas Everyone!!!
