Carol: A Story for Christmas
Carol: A Story for Christmas | Bob Hartman
3 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
Jack O'Malley hates shopping, snow, and even Christmas. All three at once is Jack's idea of a very bad day. Storming into a Starbucks seeking escape, Jack runs smack into a beautiful and mysterious stranger, almost knocking her over and unintentionally changing his life forever. In this one moment his entire life--who he once was, who he is, and who he has the potential to become--flashes before his eyes. In this humorous rendering of Charles Dickens' classic tale, timeless lessons are reexamined through the lens of modern society. The result is funny, moving, and ultimately thought-provoking.

Fun, thoughtful, joyful Christmas novella. I picked up this little gem at the library a couple of years ago.

This was a really good and very quick read! I needed something light to read and this Christmas novella was just the ticket! A modern day spin of A Christmas Carol.
