Review: Silver Bells

‘That Holiday Feeling’ is a compilation of three novellas from three amazing authors.
Silver Bells is a short installment in the Manning series by Debbie Macomber; The Perfect Holiday is from Sherryl Woods; and Under the Christmas Tree by Robyn Carr is installment 7.5 in the Virgin River series. Here is my take:

It seems that Phillip and MacKenzie are always at odds anymore.

I guess that’s to be expected of a single dad and his teenage daughter, though.

Phillip just doesn’t know what to do with her. All she’s done since they moved is complain. Phillip thought she was mature enough to handle this for a couple of months but it seems like he was wrong – or is it just her age.

And, now, NOW, it seems like she’s intent on fixing him up but Phillip isn’t ready – he’s still not over his marriage. What a mistake that was… well, not the MacKenzie part of it. But what on earth is he going to do with his daughter… and this neighbor?

My Thoughts

What I liked about the book: This was really cute. It was short and sweet. I loved MacKenzie and the residents of the building.

What I didn’t like about this book: It felt like it was cut short. I felt like something was building and then… it was just over. It was a bit odd.

I’ll still read it again, though… maybe after i pick up some more of the Manning series?

Rating: B
Buy or Borrow: Borrow
Steam: There is some steamy elevator kissing…. but it’s not too much.

** Many of the books I review are Advance Review Copies. These books are loaned to me for my review. I am in no way compensated for my time nor am I asked to give anything but my honest review.

I love to read! But I don't always think the synopsis on the backs of books do them justice. I do, however, believe all books should come with an intended rating - or at least a steam FYI. So, I'm taking upon myself to educate all -- christian & secular readers, alike -- on the books behind the synopsis and the possible things you may not want your YA reader to see. Enjoy!
