Now a Netflix Original Film! #1 New York Times bestseller
An ill-timed storm on Christmas Eve buries the residents of Gracetown under multiple feet of snow and causes quite a bit of chaos. One brave soul ventures out into the storm from her stranded train, setting off a chain of events that will change quite a few lives. Over the next three days one girl takes a risky shortcut with an adorable stranger, three friends set out to win a race to the Waffle House (and the hash brown spoils), and the fate of a teacup pig falls into the hands of a lovesick barista.
A trio of today’s bestselling authors—John Green, Maureen Johnson, and Lauren Myracle—brings all the magic of the holidays to life in three hilarious and charming interconnected tales of love, romance, and kisses that will steal your breath away.
“A comedy as delicious as any whipped up by the Bard.” —Washington Post Book World
I absolutely adored the first story, it was so good! Just what I needed. The characters were really great, the writing was good and the storyline was just so sweet. Predictable, yes, but it is a christmassy book after all, so that's kind of the point (to me anyway). I haven't read anything by [a:Maureen Johnson|10317|Maureen Johnson|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1197703391p2/10317.jpg] before, but I'll be sure to check out her other works now. 4 stars.
The second story I found really dull. What was the point again? The writing was good, but that's about it. I just wasn't into this one. The characters were boring and I didn't care about the storyline. John Green sure has a thing for roadtrips. The 'roadtrip' was fine, but that's about it. 2 stars.
The third story, written by [a:Lauren Myracle|157676|Lauren Myracle|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1224298383p2/157676.jpg], was quite okay. I didn't really like the main character of this story, and the whole angel-thing was a bit weird, but overall, this story was just cute. The character development was pretty fast, but since the story just had a little over 100 pages, I think that's okay. I hadn't even heard about this author before, but I think I'll go check out what else she's written. Could be an interesting author to follow! 3 stars.
I really liked how all three stories were tied in each other. That was a very unique way to do this.
