The Christmas SweaterBy Janice L. DickDescription:Jeanne, a retired librarian and one-year widow, is dreading her first Christmas without Sam. However, when her childhood friend moves in next door, Jeanne wonders if alone might be better. Spunky Debbie McCormick won’t allow Jeanne to wallow in her grief, and seems intent on pushing her into decisions she’s not ready to make. Book Takeaway:Life is to be lived, no matter what comes our way. Why the author wrote this book:This started as an assignment to write a contemporary book instead of my usual historical, and I decided to experiment further with first person. |
