Very good book.  I was looking for a children's book that shares my love of Christmas.  This book was so much fun following the adventures of four kids as they solve a mystery.  I hope there is a sequel as there are many more things I want to learn!

I love this book - we read it on Christmas eve and place a little stuffed santa mouse on the backside of the tree to go along with the book. The grand kids love doing it. We have a new set of grand kids this year so I wanted them to be a part of our family tradition.  The book was clean, and looked like brand new.  thank you

I really enjoyed this Christmas story. It's a take on the "bah-humbug" character. Similar to another Christmas story.
Nicely worded, good story flow and fun to read. The curiosity of the main character pulls you into the book. I started
reading and kept going till the end - a happy end at that.

I got to meet the author the other day and she signed a copy of the book. She was super nice and I was extremely impressed once I got the book home and read it. First, the presentation is awesome; great box, great toys. Second, the book itself is so cute and has a great message. I highly recommend this if you are looking for something different to start a Christmas tradition!

A Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words Review (An Alisa Review)
Rating: 4 stars out of 5

Twas the night before Christmas, but whats stirring is a little more dangerous than a mouse.

Taviano is nearly two hundred years old and never wakes in the same place twice. Weary and jaded, the vampire still indulges in memories of childhood Christmases in Naples. He lingers in shadow, spying on mortals as they enjoy the holiday.

When Taviano spots a handsome young man in Boston loaded down with presents and about to be mugged, he cant help but intervene. Soon hes talking to joyous, nave, strong-willed and funny Paul, a short-order cook who raised funds to buy Christmas presents for LGBTQ children. Before he knows whats happened, Taviano is wrapped up in Pauls arms and then in his scheme to get the presents delivered by Christmas morning.

A vampire turned into a Christmas elf What could go wrong?

This was a nice holiday story with a bit of a twist. Taviano has pretty much hated himself since he was turned into a vampire. Paul quickly brings some light into his world and he doesnt want to let him go.

Paul hasn't had the best time since coming out to his parents but he does have some support from the rest of his family and is just trying to get by on his own. Even with this he has a positive outlook and it goes a long way to helping Taviano see himself in a new light. I loved Pauls view of the world and how he only saw the good that Taviano did and ends up giving Taviano a purpose. We learned much about Tavianos life before he was born and its mysterious connection to Paul but Taviano doesnt think much on his past as he doesnt feel worthy. Taviano continues to prove himself when he defends Paul against the Boston vampires and comes out on top.

The cover art by Dar Albert is great and I love the visuals of the characters.

I read this short story after finishing The Christmas Dragon, the previous book, so this is a great follow up with one particular Fey Prince who has now found himself in trouble. I really enjoyed him in The Christmas Dragon and maybe that was because he was a bit more mysterious and arrogant that it was fun to see him thrown out of his element. In this one he feels a lot more down to earth and developed as we discover some of his more pronounced flaws and traits. As far as the story goes, I enjoyed it greatly! It was a very enjoyable romp Among the Mythos and I absolutely adore the author's voice. I found the humor witty and quick and loved the character interactions and will always want more! I will admit however some of the more musical language was lost on me because of my own lack of musical knowledge, otherwise the magic and spells sounded great.

I received a free copy from Story Cartel for an honest review.

If you are looking for a holiday story that will make you say Ahhhhh, then The Vets Christmas Pet by J.L. Campbell is definitely for you.  Toni is struggling to put her life together after a divorce when she stumbles on a stray dog, affectionately named Ridley.  Worried that she may have hurt him she takes him to the vet with anticipation of finding its owner.  But, her daughter, Jade, falls madly in love with the dog.  To complicate matters, the Vet just happens to be an old friend from high school who had a secret crush on her.

This novella was cute and fun to read.  Readers will instantly fall in love with Ridley, the dog, and Jade and cheer for Matthias as he woos for Tonis affections.  Campbell novella is also part of the box set Christmas Pets and Kisses.  I hope Campbell has more in store for this couple and their dog.

Caitlin is spending the holidays housesitting for a friend and catching up on some reading. When she finds a stray kitten and heads to the vet's office, she is surprised to discover Noah, her college boyfriend. Noah ended their relationship when he went to vet school because he didn't believe in long distance relationships. Once he left, he regretted it and tried to find Caitlin to tell her, but was unsuccessful. Now that he's run in to her, he wants a chance to get her under the mistletoe. Mistletoe Magic is a cute, sweet Christmas read. My only regret is that it's not longer. I would have liked to see the relationship develop more between Caitlin and Noah. But don't let that stop you. It's definitely a great novella to pick and enjoy for the holiday season.

When I ordered this book it came within the days it said it would be here. A very good book for a Christmas read. I think the first one was my favorite. Myrtle is quite the character but I get the impression by the end of the book that she is an angel in disguise.

I am 8 years old and thought this was a super cool book. I have read tons of Christmas stories before but nothing like this one. It was so different and I like how Chance, Jack and Ashley have to go through tests to stop Knecht Ruprecht coming back. It was soooooooo exciting to read and I even felt like I wanted to get those naughty Krampus with a cinnamon rod after what happen to Jack and it nearly made me cry.

I did feel bad with Ashely parts cos I feel like that with my little brother sometimes and that was kind of scary weird and made this seem even more real. What Jack, Chance and Ashely went through and when Mr. Hecht and Grandpa Hugo talked, it made me think about people and being grateful and what it means to be good. The book was kind of creepy and magical too and it was hard to stop reading it. It was also about the balance of good and evil and it seemed real like if it really did happen. And best of all it gave me warm fuzzies at the end. I really like this book and can't wait to read it again just before Christmas......... =(^-^)=

One of my favourite things about this book was the reference to the birth of Jesus, the true meaning of Christmas.  This was a great story about the romance between Elise and Jason.

What a great story!  Op-Op is a dinosaur who wants the newest, best toy for Christmas, but ends up getting an egg from his parents.  He spends the whole story protecting it--and at the end he learns a valuable lesson.

My kids loved this book, and I loved that it showed them the true meaning of the holiday season.  Highly recommended.

Long Ago One December is a lovely story. The wonder of Christmas as well as the true meaning of Christmas is interlaced throughout the book.  The ending is quite clever and brings the magic right back to the young Nathan. This story was a delight!  I look forward to sharing it.
