Christmas Reads 2014
Looking for some fun reading breaks through the holidays?
Here’s what I’ve been reading in an assortment of short stories and novellas by
both new and multi published authors. Choose from a variety of genres: light
hearted to heavy drama, family G rated and a few PG with subject and language.
Choose from historical, romance, humor, contemporary, and super heroes. Enjoy!
Where Treetops Glisten,
three novellas about the Turner family set in Lafayette, Indiana during the
Second World War. Faith, drama, romance, and intrigue. By Cara Putman, Sarah
Sundin, and Tricia Goyer.
Lawrence’s Gift,
from the Christmases Past short story series. Challis, Idaho 1941 and the large
Baxter family prepares to gather for the holidays as the news of Pearl Harbor
breaks out. Drama, conflict, tension, and hearts filled with love. By Anne
Baxter Campbell.
A Rare Snow, historical
Episode 6 from the Roaring Redwoods short story series. A look at the 1920’s “where the Pacific Ocean meets the
Redwoods, gangsters meet immigrants, loggers meet movie stars—and the lines
between right and wrong are obscured by the trees.” This has grittier content
and language based on real life characters and situations. This episode covers Christmas Eve through NewYear's Eve 1927. By Leo Colson
Kathi Macias’ 12 Days of Christmas, assorted contemporary and historical with
drama, families, faith, laughter, and commitment. By authors Kathi Macias, Kathy
Bruins, Jessica Ferguson, Christine Lindsay, Marcia Lee Laycock, Marcy
Weydemuller, Ruth L. Snyder, Sheila Seiler Lagrand, Peggy Blann Phifer, Anne
Baxter Campbell, Mishael Austin Witty, and Jeanette Hanscome
The Best Blue Christmas, contemporary short story reminding us
that for some Christmas brings up painful family memories. Yet hope beckons
amid sorrow, laughter and fellowship. By Tracy Krauss
A Very Merry
Superhero Wedding, a prequel contemporary novella to the
Adventures of Lewis and Clark series, an anthology of Romantic Short Stories. Tension,
action, humor and of course, romance. This novella releases on Christmas Eve.
By Kitty Bucholtz
