Christmas in Cedar Cove

Guess the snowfall and cold temperatures still have me in a Christmas mood! In Christmas in Cedar Cove by Debbie Macomber we are presented with two Cedar Cove love stories to enjoy. The first, 5-B Poppy Lane, tells the story of Helen Shelton and her adventurous life during the Second World War where she met her first and second husbands. In A Cedar Cove Christmas, we hear how Mack and Mary Jo met one Christmas Eve in a story that has several allusions to the original Christmas story, the birth of Jesus. (304 p.)

I think the most interesting tidbit is about the author: Debbie Macomber has dyslexia and didn't learn to read until 5th grade--and now she is a bestselling author of heartwarming stories involving family life, friendships and small towns.
