From the New York Times bestselling author of The Christmas Hope series comes another heartwarming, inspirational story for the holidays.Thirty-two-year-old Amy Denison volunteers at Glory's Place, an after school program where she meets seven-year-old Maddie, a precocious young girl who has spent her childhood in foster care. Unbeknownst to Amy, Maddie is a mini-matchmaker, with her eye on just the right man for Amy at Grandon Elementary School, where she is a student. Amy is hesitant - she's been hurt before, and isn't sure she's ready to lose her heart again - but an unexpected surprise makes her reconsider her lonely lifestyle.As Christmas nears and the town is blanketed in snow and beautiful decorations, Maddie and the charming staff at Glory's Place help Amy to see that romance can be more than heartache and broken promises. In The Christmas Star, Donna VanLiere delivers yet another sweet, joyous story that is sure to capture readers' hearts.

Day 19: Tree Topper

The star on the left is from my childhood. This year, the lights have gone out and can't be fixed :( We have it sitting on the small 4ft Christmas tree un front of my books. The one on the right is our new star, sitting on our big tree.

I really liked that the author narrated the audiobook, she obviously knows her characters well, and she really gave them their own voices. I think that was my favorite part of it.
The story itself was really cute. I, however, was able to guess how the story would go from the very beginning. I didn't mind though because I liked the characters so much.
There were some hilarious moments that really added to the story and my love for the characters.

This was probably one of my favorite holiday reads. The story was simple, a love reunited, but what makes this special is that it takes the innocence of a child to bring these individuals back together. #WinterGames2020 #readnosedreindeer #littenlisten #bookmasbingo #nicnaxbookclubbingo #bookspinbingo #ReadYourWay #CrushTheRush #DashingDecember #ChristmasSpirit #WinterSolstice (×2)

Amy gets more than she bargains for when she starts volunteering at Glory‘s place. A young girl in foster care is playing matchmaker and has picked out just the man for Amy - but unknown to any party, it‘s a man from Amy‘s past. Can a little Christmas magic help heal Amy‘s heart? +326 #Wintergames #merryreaders #festiveflicks #averymerrybingo #winterathon #merrybookmas #christmasspiritreadathon #littenlisten #crushtherush #readyourway

This is a sweet read for the holiday season. I did like the characters a lot, they had very little depth, but they were cute. The story itself would be what you would expect to see on the Hallmark channel and that works for many people but just not for me. I really wanted more, plus third person present tense is probably my least liked narration and that is how this story was told. Full review at www.thegenreminx.com #TheGenreMinxBookReviews
