1. Catching Christmas

Catching Christmas by Terri Blackstock:

The first Christmas story from New York Times and the USA TODAY bestselling author Terri Blackstock.

“The feel-good Christmas book of the year.

Blackstock’s tale of love and redemption wrapped in a holiday bow will leave you smiling. Don’t miss Catching Christmas.” -New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hauck

This Year, Christmas Comes Just in Time As a first-year law associate, Sydney Batson knows she will be updating her resume by New Year’s if she loses her current case.

So when her grandmother gets inexplicably ill while she’s in court, Sydney arranges for a cab to get her to the clinic. The last thing cab driver Finn Parrish wants is to be saddled with a wheelchair-bound old lady with dementia.

But because Miss Callie reminds him of his own mother, whom he failed miserably in her last days, he can’t say no when she keeps calling him for rides.

Once a successful gourmet chef, Finn’s biggest concern now is paying his rent, but half the time Callie doesn’t remember to pay him. And as she starts to feel better, she leads him on wild-goose chases to find a Christmas date for her granddaughter. When Finn meets Sydney, he’s quite sure she’s never needed help finding a date.

Does Miss Callie have an ulterior motive, or is this just a mission driven by delusions? He’s willing to do whatever he can to help fulfill Callie’s Christmas wish. He just never expected to be a vital part of it. “Blackstock’s Catching Christmas is not your average romance. Darling and laugh-out-loud cute, it makes the reader think about the important things in life.

I read it in one gulp and wished there was more. Highly recommended!” -Colleen Coble, USA TODAY bestselling author of the Hope Beach and Lavender Tides series “Terri Blackstock’s latest offering touches tender places with its quirky characters and stirring plot.

Catching Christmas explores what happens when the paths of a disenchanted taxi driver collide with that of an overworked attorney. Blackstock weaves a compelling, romantic tale that is sure to get you into the Christmas spirit!” -Denise Hunter, bestselling author of Honeysuckle Dreams and The Convenient Groom.

2. Season of Wonder

Season of Wonder: A Clean & Wholesome Romance by RaeAnne Thayne:

It’s a long way from New York to Idaho…but could they have found a home at last? Dani Capelli has never truly belonged anywhere.

And from her earliest days as a foster child in Queens, she would have been lost if it weren’t for her love of animals. Until high school, when she fell hard for the wrong boy and found herself pregnant — and married — by graduation.

Two daughters later, Dani realized her mistake and filed for divorce, and with the help of scholarships and loans — and a lot of macaroni and cheese dinners — she enrolled in vet school. Things were finally looking up…until her ex-husband became her late husband, in the most notorious way possible.

Now Dani and her daughters need an out-of-town pass more than ever. So when the retiring Haven Point veterinarian offers her a chance to settle in the small Idaho town and take over his practice, she jumps at it.

But adjusting to the charming mountain community isn’t easy; thirteen-year-old Silver begins acting out while six-year-old Mia is growing too attached to Haven Point and everything in it, especially their next-door neighbor, Deputy Sheriff Ruben Morales.

And Dani can’t blame her. Ruben is everything she’s secretly wanted — and everything she can’t bear to risk loving…and losing.

As the holidays draw near, their shared concern for Dani’s daughters brings them closer together, giving Ruben the chance to show this big-city woman just how magical Christmas in Haven Point can be…and that the promise of a home, at last, is very real in the most wondrous season of the year.

3. Christmas Shopaholic: A Novel

Christmas Shopaholic: A Novel by Sophie Kinsella:

Becky Brandon (née Bloomwood) adores Christmas. It’s always the same — Mum and Dad hosting, carols playing, Mum pretending she made the Christmas pudding, and the next-door neighbors coming round for sherry in their terrible festive jumpers.

And now it’s even easier with online bargain-shopping sites — if you spend enough you even get free delivery. Sorted!

But this year looks set to be different. Unable to resist the draw of craft beer and smashed avocado, Becky’s parents are moving to ultra-trendy Shoreditch and have asked Becky if she’ll host Christmas this year. What could possibly go wrong?

With sister Jess demanding a vegan turkey, husband Luke determined that he just wants aftershave again, and little Minnie insisting on a very specific picnic hamper — surely Becky can manage all this, as well as the surprise appearance of an old boyfriend and his pushy new girlfriend, whose motives are far from clear…

Will chaos ensue, or will Becky manage to bring comfort and joy to Christmas?

4. One Day in December: A Novel

One Day in December: A Novel by Josie Silver:

Two people. Ten chances. One unforgettable love story.

Laurie is pretty sure love, at first sight, doesn’t exist anywhere but in the movies. But then, through a misted-up bus window one snowy December day, she sees a man who she knows instantly is the one. Their eyes meet, there’s a moment of pure magic…and then her bus drives away.

Certain they’re fated to find each other again, Laurie spends a year scanning every bus stop and cafe in London for him. But she doesn’t find him, not when it matters anyway. Instead they “reunite” at a Christmas party, when her best friend Sarah giddily introduces her new boyfriend to Laurie. It’s Jack, the man from the bus. It would be.

What follows for Laurie, Sarah and Jack is ten years of friendship, heartbreak, missed opportunities, roads not taken, and destinies reconsidered. One Day in December is a joyous, heartwarming, and immensely moving love story to escape into and a reminder that fate takes inexplicable turns along the route to happiness.

5. The Gift

The Gift by Cecelia Ahern

“There are two ways for people to be happy, one is what good things happen to them, and the other is bad luck for others.” “But this can only be controlled at the level of clear expression of each other, and can not be used to destroy the other’s heart.”

Seeing this, I can’t help thinking of the protagonist Lou in the novel, who has a successful career and is completely accustomed to and enjoys working life. For his rush and fight, he gained a lot and lost a lot.

The happiness he was for just completely satisfied the above two possibilities mentioned by Lian Yue, a new promotion, what he expects is not only to bring himself more happiness but At the same time, there is the thrill of conquering strong opponents.

Once a person falls into this situation, it is difficult to rationally withdraw from the indefinite expectation of happiness, and quietly consider what they have done, and the harm to those around them, especially to themselves.

Gabe in the novel is always a mystery to me. After all, I still don’t understand what magic power is that enables him to “prophet” and how to give Lou that magical “avatar”. Or maybe it’s just A moving story made up by the narrator Raphael in the book, just a sweet and heart-warming tale, so absorbing.

The narrative of the novel is not completely linear but interspersed between the realistic plot and the storytelling, which is separated from time to time by the chapter of The turkey boy. The narrative method like Cecelia not only is not chaotic but makes the plot and rhythm of the story smoother.

Even if the simple truth is easy to understand and repeated a hundred times, it will tire the listener, and if it is hidden in a wrapped cocoon, the reader will be able to think as the reading continues and the plot develops.

Instead of simply listening, layer by layer, in order to show its righteousness, this is the best “preaching and teaching karma to solve puzzles.” Cecelia strives to wrap the same truth in two different but similar “cocoons”, expecting to pass two different lives, or three (if you count Raphael), and four (if you count Jessica) ), to show us the most worthy and cherished gift in life.

I believe that Cecelia does not want to be a “teacher”, but just like the words “Lose yourself in the magical world of Cecelia Ahern” on the title page, any fascinating story can make us feel.

Before the code word, I decided to mention the film adapted from another novel by the author, PS I Love You. I, therefore, knew the author, and contacted and wanted to contact the author’s other novels. Unlike the Gift, the plot of PS can still be found or copied in the real world, but a closer taste can also reveal the similarities between the two works: the plot in the movie is also related to Ireland, and it is also related to Christmas.

Relevance is also related to family, it is also related to life and death, and when it touches death, it also offers readers a happy ending and hopes to carry on a new life.

With so much pressure in real life, why can’t we become more romantic, keep a little distance from the cruel society, feel the beauty conveyed in the book with our hearts, and don’t forget to stop in a hurry to cherish everything? This is the best gift I got from Cecelia’s book.

“As big as the heart, the stage is as big” is true, but maybe the stage we need is not blindly infinitely big. We can try our best to jump out of the sky on the stage of our own. It is a kind of happiness.
