“A lovely compilation of Christmas stories, and for a good cause too!
This anthology has 22 stories (23, if you count a bonus tale by a little ten-year-old budding writer). Each of the stories is set around Christmas but that doesn’t necessarily mean that all the stories are ‘Christmassy’. Some are joyful, some mournful, some hopeful, and some simply have Christmas in a background mention.
The genres in the stories are varied as well. I appreciate how the stories have been clubbed by genres. Thus we have:
I. A Christmas Crime – ten crime-based stories.
II. Holly Jolly Christmas – five family/romance based stories.
III. It's a Christmas Miracle – seven fantasy-based stories. (Christmas miracle… get it?)
You could just read the stories as per your mood. The crime/thriller ones don't utilise Christmas in a happy way but are quite interesting. On the other hand, the holly-jolly ones are predictable but they make the best use of the festive sprit. Each section thus has its advantage.
As a multi-author anthology, it is but obvious that there will be some hits and some misses. But I am glad to say that the hits far outnumber the misses. Most of the stories were easily three stars and above for me.
Here are my top favourites, each of which earned a 4.5+ stars:”
