MY THOUGHTS.....

Are you one of those people who knows that Christmas is fast approaching but you're still longing for a good read? Well, here's the answer to your dilemma! Christmas Cookies Mysteries is an anthology with 15 short stories that are inspired by The Oak Ridge Boys Christmas Cookies Album, and the contributing authors are some of the very best! The book begins with Hark the Herald Angels Sing by Patricia Bradley and ends with O Come All Ye Faithful by Mindy Steele, and the stories in between all revolve around small towns, Christmas traditions, murder and mayhem!

So, grab a cup of coffee or hot cocoa, prop up your feet, and appreciate a brief respite from the hustle and bustle. I recommend Christmas Cookies Mysteries to all who enjoy mysteries but be prepared to also have music playing in your head, because most of the stories have the names of Christmas songs in their titles!

I received a copy of this book but was in no way obligated to post a positive review. These are my own thoughts.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
