Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing. The War World II Story was one of the best stories I ever read. Melody Carlson makes the characters come alive. It was a fast read, and I plan to read more of Melody Carlson's books. A great way to kick-start the Christmas season! I love Melody Carlson books, because you just never know what surprises she has in store, and this year's Christmas novella didn't disappoint. It's not always easy to create characters with depth with shorter stories, especially for an historical setting, but The Christmas Blessing still accomplished this. It's a story that many a family would have been able to claim during the WWII era, and anyone who had parents or grandparents and other relatives who served in the war could relate to this book too. The main character Amelia Richards had a whirlwind romance which resulted in a son whom she would gladly give her life for in order to see to his future. As she struggles under the stigmas of her day, I couldn't help but reflect on some similarities with her story and that of my grandparents - three of whom served in WWII - and what the war did to change the course of their lives as well as their children, too. The Christmas Blessing was a heartfelt book with an uplifting message of enduring love (and forgiveness) with a lovely twist you just have to read about. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
When she receives the news in late 1944 that her baby's father was shot down in the South Pacific, Amelia Richards loses hope. Jobless and broke, she has nowhere to turn for help but her infant's paternal grandparents. The only problem is, they don't know that she-- or their grandson-- exists. When Amelia discovers that the family is wealthy and influential, dare she disclose the truth of her relationship with their son? Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

This is a really sweet and heartwarming story. It has lots of elements of Christmas although it didn't feel overly Christmassy to me. It's quite a short book and I would recommend.
