MY REVIEW
I adored this movie. I love Christmas and everything about it. I love the feeling, what it stands for, and all the yummy treats. But mostly I love Christmas movies and books. Some can err on the side of too cheesy - trying to hard and such. But this movie was not one of them. It had a good balance of the season and love and caring and wondering what would happen. It kept me hooked and invested. I loved the actors, the story, and the way it made me feel. It totally made me cry - so be warned!! But it was perfect. I admit that I had not read the book prior to watching this movie so I did not know what to expect. But what I got was heartwarming, sweet, good, and had the spirit of Christmas. I really love that it also showed that mistakes can be forgiven and kindness is contagious. I highly recommend this movie and the book. I have since read the book and loved it too. Great story, sweet movie, and a perfect addition to your Christmas collection!
