Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2464 KP) rated Away in a Manger (Molly Murphy Mysteries, #15) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Christmas 1905 is approaching, and Molly is looking forward to spending a quiet holiday with her family. However, a young girl out in the cold attracts her attention, and she feels compelled to find out all she can about this girl’s family. Her mother disappeared months ago. What happened to her? Does the girl have any family left who would take her in?
The book gives us a wonderful look at Christmas in another time as we see different traditions we don’t follow any more. But that feeling is balanced by the mystery, which has some serious tones to it. Rhys Bowen balances the two perfectly. Mix in our favorite characters, and you’ve got a Christmas mystery to savor.

Merissa (13600 KP) rated A Magically Delicious Christmas in Books

A MAGICALLY DELICIOUS CHRISTMAS is a sweet Christmas story about Thomas, Eric's dad, and Angelo, Eric's teacher, who meet when Angelo has to inform Thomas that Eric has made a dating profile for him. Throw in a book club, Christmas parties, interfering families, and two men who are definitely NOT dating for the majority of the book, and you can already see the fun happening.
This was a quick and easy read that was well-written and paced. I loved how there were no real unnecessary miscommunications. A good Christmassy read that I definitely enjoyed and can recommend.
