Title: Mistletoe at Moonglow
Author: Deborah Garner
Genre:
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars
This year is the first year Mist is working at the Timberton Hotel, and she has made the hotel look beautiful as ever and is intent on making the holiday season perfect for all their guests. While the guests spend time together Mist provides special thought out gifts and refreshments catered to each person. This is the season for warm hearts and happiness, and Mist is determined to provide that to all of her new friends
This little novel was adorable to read, but there wasn't much to it beyond a slice of life type of story. We don't delve deep into character relationships or backgrounds. It is a great little heartwarming book to read on a Saturday afternoon with a cup of hot cocoa as it snows outside. The things Mist does for each guest reminds readers what it really means to spread Christmas joy and love. It's a cute, easy read. The writing style to clean and crisp, the setting and characters are described nicely and you get a clear picture of the personalities involved in the story. I think my favorite character was the little boy Robert. He added an air of innocence to the story.
The book seems to have a nice theme of healing as each of the guests all have their own personal issues to over come from the lose of a loved one to feeling homesick and even physical healing after a medical issue. I enjoyed reading how each guest helped one another in small ways and the kinship they all had even with the new guests. I was waiting for something to happen, like a freak snow storm or large profession of love or something but nothing happened, it was all happy go lucky which is a nice change from novels that always have something happening in them.
Mistletoe at Moonglow is a sweet, sentimental, heartwarming story that will put you into the Christmas spirit. I would recommend it if you like these kinds of book or if you are looking for a gentle read for this holiday season.
