Every year I list the new Christmas titles we carry here in the store. I don't always think to myself, "I would like to read that story," But this year seems to have a couple that look very interesting to me. I just might find myself enjoying a Christmas book or two.
Happy Reading,

That is until a strange letter arrives from Montana, "will you come teach in our little community." What will Mary decide?
Keeping Christmas - Dan Walsh - Empty nesters, Judith and Stan are looking at a Christmas without any children in the house. Judith is having a hard time getting in the spirit of the holidays. When she even refuses to decorate the tree, Stan knows he has to do something to help her remember the true meaning of Christmas.
