All three of these stories will get you in the Christmas spirit with a dead body along the way. We do get some time enjoying holiday traditions (recipes included with all three stories), some of them unique to Maine, which is a lot of fun. The mysteries are all good, although the first seems to wander quite a bit before it gets fully engaging. If you are a fan of one of these authors, here is a good way or sample some others while catching up with your favorite sleuth at Christmas time.
NOTE: I received an ARC of this book.

Nicole Hadley (380 KP) rated A Very Blessed Christmas Coloring Book in Books
Jun 14, 2018
The images are a mix of secular and religious, all related to the Christmas season. There are some beautiful Biblical quotes related to the season too, surrounded by artwork to color.
This book has a section for Christmas crafts such as cutouts to make ornaments, bookmarks or even gift tags. I love that this coloring book is unique and is perfect for everyone. It is inspirational, filled with beautiful pictures of angels, snowflakes, trees, stocking, nativity and so much more.
I received this book from FaithWords via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Andy K (10823 KP) rated National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989) in Movies
Dec 4, 2018
This time, the vacation comes to the Griswolds as the relatives come by for a helping of holiday cheer as Clark decides to makes his home a Christmas light spectacle while waiting for his Christmas bonus.
I think it resonates because we have all had those trying times with the family or the one relative you wish you could tell off or not have to sit next to.
The witty banter among the family as well as Chevy Chase's impeccable dry wit makes the film a venerable holiday classic for sure.
