Welcome! I hope everyone has had a good Sunday. I woke up this morning with an extremely sore throat and a tightness in my chest. Lucky me (though not unexpected)! It gives me a chance to read more though! A Killer Location by Sarah T. Hobart comes out on Tuesday. It is the latest A Home Sweet Home Mystery novel. Christmas Angels by Viola Shipman is set in St. Louis, Missouri. Kate Roseberry owns Holidays by Kate! She designs and executes holiday designs for malls, offices, events, etc. Tree toppers are her signature (she always puts the tree topper on herself). Christmas is usually her favorite time of the year, but Kate has not been able to get into this spirit of the season this year. The previous year her boyfriend, Tyler broke up with her during the holiday season. Kate meets Chad Cooper while decorating the St. Louis Tower, a new shopping mall. Chad is purchasing a Halloween costume for his son, Coop (he is seven). Coop wishes to go as an angel (unusual choice for a little boy). Chad asks Kate if she believes in angels. Kate can see that Chad is struggling. Later when Kate is setting up the conference room for Cooper, Anderson, Schiff and Hines (a law firm) Christmas party when the firm asks her to decorate Chad’s house for him and his son. Chad lost his wife, Ella the previous winter after years of illness (cancer). They are worried about Chad and his son. This could be what they need to help them heal. Chad’s son, Coop is very serious (yet sweet) little boy. Coop is taken with Kate and she with him. The three start to spend time together. Can they help each other heal and move forward? Do you believe in angels? Christmas Angels is a sweet, though short, story. It is a light romance novel that will help put you in the mood for Christmas any time of the year. It is well-written and easy to read. I like the characters (especially Coop) and the descriptions of the decorations. I especially liked that Coop had a Sock Monkey stocking cap (my mother just loves everything Sock Monkey’s). It was a cute touch for such a serious little boy. The book contains a good message about angels. I give Christmas Angels 4 out of 5 stars. I did enjoy the story, but I wish it had been a little longer. It felt rushed at the end and the ending felt incomplete. The book includes a preview of Viola Shipman’s next book The Hope Chest (takes up the last 40%) which comes out March 21, 2017. I appreciate you visiting! If you enjoy my reviews, please consider joining my blog (at right). I am off to eat dinner and rest (need to knock this cold out of me). The Librarians third season start tonight (such a wonderful show). I will return tomorrow with another delightful book review (in my humble opinion). Take care, stay warm and Happy Reading!

This story radiates everything that we remember in our happy times with family. Read the review for Christmas Angels by Nancy Naigle
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this joyous and whimsical holiday novel, Debbie Macomber rings in the season with the return of Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy, delivering laughs, love, and a charming dose of angelic intervention. Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy know that an angel’s work is never done, especially during a time as wondrous as New Year’s Eve. With an apprentice angel, Will, under their wings, they descend upon Times Square in New York City eager to join in the festivities. And when Will spies two lonely strangers in the crowd, he decides midnight is the perfect time to lend a heavenly helping hand. Lucie Farrara and Aren Fairchild meet after bumping into each other—seemingly by accident—in Times Square on New Year’s Eve. They immediately hit it off and find they have a lot in common: Lucie is a burgeoning chef and Aren is a respected food critic. But just as quickly as they’re brought together, another twist of fate tears them apart, leaving Lucie and Aren with no way to reconnect. A year later, Lucie is the chef of an acclaimed new restaurant and Aren is a successful columnist for a major New York newspaper. For all the time that’s passed, the two have not forgotten their one serendipitous evening—and neither have Shirley, Goodness, Mercy, and Will. To reunite the young couple, the angels cook up a brilliant plan: mix true love, a second chance, and a generous sprinkle of mischief to create an unforgettable Christmas miracle. Praise for Angels at the Table “This delightful mix of romance, humor, hope and happenstance is the perfect recipe for holiday cheer.”—Examiner “Rings in Christmas in tried-and-true Macomber style, with romance and a touch of heavenly magic.”—Kirkus Reviews “The angels’ antics are a hugely hilarious and entertaining bonus to a warm love story.”—Bookreporter “[A] sweetly charming holiday romance.”***—Library Journal***

The residents of Cape Light and Angel Island will learn to speak what’s in their hearts this holiday season in this heartwarming novel in the New York Times bestselling series. Adele Morgan has made mistakes in her life. After a serious medical scare, she realizes her greatest regret is that she sat idly by while a petty dispute tore her family apart. She has returned to Cape Light determined to mend broken relations and bring everyone together for the holidays. But Adele’s arrival elicits little delight. Neither Molly Willoughby nor Sam Morgan has time for their grandmother’s plan to reconcile. It will take a miracle to unite Adele’s family. Luckily for Adele, miracles can happen at the Inn at Angel Island. Meanwhile, there’s another visitor, a skeptic determined to debunk Angel Island’s legend. Grad student Jonathan Butler plans to prove the angel lore is nonsense and leave with a grand “bah humbug!” Stuck on the island for Christmas, he spends his time doing research in the Historical Society where he meets local undergrad Tess Wyler. It’s only a matter of time before he too falls under the island’s spell and realizes that the proof of Angel Island and Cape Light’s magic lies within.

An interesting take on the traditional Christmas Story is told in illustrations about a lost lamb, found by the shepherd. Then the angels come and tell of the birth of Jesus and the Shepherds all go to see the manger. Fabric books are always such a great gift for babies from infants to toddlers up to the age of about 3 or 4. But being a special Christmas book, it will be enjoyed for years. A fabric book can be washed but I recommend air drying to preserve the colors. This book is 8" x 10". Easy to ship in a soft padded envelope.
A glorious collection of Christmas Holy Angels Pictures! These beautiful Vintage Angels have large feathered wings. Full color and Sepia options.

Questo bellissimo cappello a cilindro per albero d'angelo è realizzato con un libro precedentemente amato. Decorato con fiocchi di neve, fiori o tinta unita. Rifinito con glitter spray oro o argento. Ogni angelo è realizzato da un libro riproposto (il colore/la patina del libro varia con l'età, quindi non ce ne sono due perfettamente identici - faccio del mio meglio per renderlo il più vicino possibile a quello raffigurato, ma non sarà esattamente questo angelo raffigurato). Sono decorati con strass scintillanti e fiocchi di neve. La base è una bobina di nastro riproposta per aggiungere stabilità e consentirne il posizionamento sulla cima dell'albero. L'angelo stesso è alto circa 9 pollici e ha un diametro di circa 5,5-6 pollici. Quindi la base aggiunta per la punta dell'albero è di altri 4-5 pollici e cioè un tubo ricoperto da un nastro coordinato da posizionare sul ramo più alto dell'albero Sono disponibili alcune personalizzazioni. Contattami non appena ordini se desideri regolare i colori di ciò che è raffigurato. È un ottimo regalo per Natale, inaugurazione della casa, festa della mamma, insegnante, bibliotecaria, preside, matrimonio, addio al nubilato, laureato, chiunque ami leggere, amanti dei libri, compleanno.
