Title: The Christmas Room Author: Catherine Anderson Publisher: Berkley Reviewed By: Arlena Dean Rating: Five Review: "The Christmas Room" by Catherine Anderson My Thoughts.... I found this a good novella Christmas story that touches on a little bit of it all....from 'grief, trials and tribulations of a single parent, finding a love connection, moving to a new state, with secrets, physical violence, name calling, lack of understanding, healing, redemption' and it did have some heart warming moments. This author gives the reader a wonderful story that was even humorous at times, with touching moments with interesting characters from [Maddie, Cameron (Cam}, Caleb McLendon, Sam and Kristin Conacher] to name a few that will definitely keep your attention all the way through this beautiful description of Christmas Montana story. Be ready for a long story of this well blended family where the reader will be able to read about this 'dual love story of two different generations' with the best of it all ... it all happens around the Christmas holiday. All that is left to say is that this was really a fantastic story of families and their relationships in how this author brings it all together so well after all is said and done. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
"The beloved author of the Mystic Creek series gifts readers with a novel of homespun good cheer, as two families discover the joy of hope and redemption--just in time for the holidays. As summer gives way to fall in Rustlers Gulch, widow Maddie McLendon begins to have second thoughts about uprooting her life to move there with her son and grandson. Contractors have yet to break ground on their new house, leaving them--along with four horses, three dogs, and six cats--to live in a makeshift camp of trailers, tents, and sheds, while a brutal Montana winter looms on the horizon. . . . Millionaire rancher Sam Conacher doesn't take kindly to his foolish new neighbors, but then he hasn't taken kindly to anyone since his wife died six years earlier. He's content to wallow in his grief alone, while keeping a tight rein on his twenty-six-year-old daughter. But now Sam's daughter has gone and fallen in love with Maddie's no-good son. . . . Though drawn together by their love-struck kids, Maddie and Sam never see eye to eye on anything, until a near-tragedy gives them a true glimpse into each other's souls. And as the first snowflakes begin to fall, they'll discover the secrets and slipups that have brought each of them to this point in their lives--to when an open heart is the biggest gift of all. . .

This is my first book by Catherine Anderson and what a wonderful read it was.
I appreciate that the book started in August and didn't jump right into Christmas, after all this was released in September. Call me a holiday book rookie, this is my first year reading Christmas book this early. As the story develops through the season, it felt really natural.
I love the setting and also another first to read anything ranch/cowboy related. I loved it. The characters are all likable, especially Sam who is my favorite. It cracks me up when he swears.
The downside was it was a tad too long. Certain topics were mentioned more than once. I didn't enjoy the sneak around part when Cam and Kirstin stayed out either ...the drama afterwards was also unnecessary. ( )
