It wouldn't be Christmas without Debbie Macomber's heart warming tale of love. A traditional Christmas in previous years was not at all what happened for Emily and her daughter, Heather. Her good friend Faith finds love in Washington while Emily and Heather learn they are ready to move on in their lives. Choose this book for a nice evening by the fireplace with the snow falling out the window.

Just a sweet Christmas story. Older heroines (20's and 40's) and simple story with some smiles thrown in. Just a the right heartwarming Christmas story when you are in the mood. It's about a 40'ish mother living in Washington who swaps houses with a professor in Boston over the Christmas holiday. Their adventures, who they meet, and how they open up in their new towns are the gist of the story. Nice!

A really sweet and beautiful Christmas story! The ending was really great! I loved it! I think this book was the basis for the movie, The Holiday, with Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law and Jack Black. I really enjoyed the movie as well.

A humorous story that helped me get into the Christmas spirit. We can't always depend on old holiday traditions, sometimes a change is just what we need. A quick and easy read which is just what I like in the days up to Christmas.

Cute book-perfect to get you into the holiday mood. It was a quick read that wasn't hard to tackle. Reminded me a bit of the movie "The Holiday" with Cameron Diaz and Jack Black. But the book was even more complicated and cute. I would definitely recommend this to a friend!
