The book of January is none other than Let It Snow. I took the time to pick up this book during Christmas vacation, and I was not let down. Not only is Let it snow both for guys and girls, it has personal stories for those who enjoy a heart warming story around Christmas. The Book Let It Snow begins with the story the Jubilee Express. Jubilee the character in the Jubilee Express finds herself away from home on Christmas stuck with a misfortune and crazy-out of their mind parents. With a little love, as well as holiday spirit things may not be as unfortunate as they seem for Jubilee. Travel on a train, in a suburb, and in a waffle house on the first adventure for the town of Gracetown.
As this short story ended another story began. A Cheertastic Christmas Miracle is the second story of the novel, and is written by John Green. A group of friends staying home for the holidays watching James Bond discovers their latest adventure of love and curiosity awaits them in town. Travel with the group of friends to discover that a storm on Christmas Eve doesn't have the ability to stop the a heart warming desire. The last story of the novel is The Patron Saint of Pigs by Laren Myracle. In the same town of Gracetown another surprise awaits. Addie, who seems to be having issues with relationships devotes all her Christmas spirit as well as humbleness towards her friends. In trying to to be a good friend, and good ex-girlfriend she discovers being herself, and trying her hardest is all she can really do. As she undergoes a transformation of herself during Christmas her values become clear, as the unexpected happens.
The most interesting thing I found out about this book would be that the characters are totally different, the stories are different, yet in the end all the authors have the way of bringing these characters and stories together :)
I suggest this book to anyone and everyone in the mood for Christmas, although it seems to be a long ways away now in January.
I would rate this novel a 3P for some teen appeal, as well as a 4Q that is better than most :]
