Away in a Manger (Molly Murphy Mysteries, #15)
Rhys Bowen | 2015

Book Rating
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.

A Christmas staple and wonderful heart warming family movie, although not so much for Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern as Kevin and his downright inventive traps punish the would be burglars relentlessly. A timeless classic "you filthy animal"

Incredibles 2 was a long awaited piece of my childhood that did not let down my expectations. The reversal of roles for Mr. Incredible and Elastagirl was enjoyable to watch. I am planning to buy this for christmas.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to my Smashbomb family and friends! Hopefully, we forge even deeper friendships in 2019. I would love that. Reach out and say hello. Or just watch a great holiday film.

Stay safe everyone!
