BOOK REVIEW
As a reader, I absolutely loved “The Christmas Calendar Girls” by Samantha Tonge! From start to finish, the story kept me hooked and filled with holiday cheer.
The concept of a living advent calendar was so unique and heartwarming. Watching Fern and her friends come together to save their town’s food bank was truly inspiring. And of course, the addition of Kit as a love interest added an extra layer of excitement and anticipation.
What I loved most about this book was how well-developed each character was. From Fern’s grief and struggle to move on from her husband’s death, to Cara’s mysterious behavior, and even Jasper’s struggles at school – every character felt real and relatable. I found myself rooting for each of them and invested in their stories.
Overall, “The Christmas Calendar Girls” is a wonderful holiday read that will warm your heart and leave you feeling uplifted.
