One of my favorite Christmas movies. They did a beautiful job making it look just like the book. The songs and voice acting was perfect. I loved Tom Hanks as the conducter.

Grew up with this at Christmas with family. Loved it and it inspired me to learn as much useless trivia as possible.

Lol I love this game although after an hour my family would get frustrated and start playing the "fast track" way.

a lovely Christmas romance story to get you in the mood. A lovely quick read, I just couldn't put it down, this book left me wanting more and more. This book has fab characters and they have a fab chemistry between them. This is a perfect read for those cold winter nights to get you in the Christmas spirit.

Highly recommended

This makes Christmas magic real (0 more)
I feel the magic
This film for me is magical. I know loads of people says it creeps them out, but to me it just takes me back to those moments when I was a child and felt as if Santa was real. It is just pure wonder and awe and a great adventure. i love that they add some ghost elements as well in a nod to Christmas traditions of old.

Die Hard 2- is actually a good movie, has good action, good plot and of course Bruce Willis. As with the first film, the action in Die Hard 2 takes place on Christmas Eve.


The Plot: A year after his heroics in L.A, detective John McClane (Bruce Willis) is mixed up in another terrorist plot, this time at Washington Dulles International Airport, where he is waiting for his wife (Bonnie Bedelia). That same night, South American politico and drug profiteer Ramon Esperanza (Franco Nero) is arriving in U.S. custody. McClane takes action when a treasonous ex-colonel (William Sadler) seizes control of the airport, threatening to crash every inbound flight unless Esperanza is freed.

A good christmas movie to watch with the whole family.
  
I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

STABBED IN THE HEART
AND YOU'RE TO BLAME
YOU GIVE CHRISTMAS A BAD NAME

Thank you, i just had to get that out of my system!

This is a really fun, easy read with likable characters.

The villain pretty much jumped out at me but i didn't feel condescended to so that's always lovely!

I really like Jules' friendship with Christmas-Hating Lance.
She's so determined to have him enjoy the holiday that she invites him to a fancy dinner where an awful woman is stabbed.

Things move at a pretty brisk pace from there and the ending is a Christmas treat!
