I enjoyed this quite a bit and the story advanced a decent amount considering that it's a short story. And if you're looking for a dose of magical, slightly silly Christmas fun, it delivered that as well.

I enjoyed the family interactions - especially the sister's working in the family's Sugar Shack decorating Christmas Cookies - as well as the repeat appearance of Orian. I'm hoping to see a real romance develop eventually with him and Ella. The mystery - surrounding Santa's missing grimoire - brings in some hilarity with North Pole Elves, not to mention Santa himself.

It's short but worth the time, especially with Amanda Ronconi narrating. Now if the next book could just be available soon!
