The Moonglow series has become a Christmas tradition for me. It amazes me, as I finish each book every year, that this series started from a cozy mystery. It is neither mystery nor romance though there is a lot of love, of all kinds, included in the books. These books are Christmas stories. With main character, Mist, (my favorite), and returning characters who are like family, each year brings new characters and a fresh story. It is possible to read these as stand-alone books. I however urge you to begin with the first and read them in order. Without having major hangovers, the main character, as well as the supporting cast, have ongoing storylines. The true spirit of Christmas can be found between the pages. As always there are a number of cookie recipes, (and even a Christmas Cookbook of them available -recommend the print copy so it can be handed down.), to be found at the end of the book. Treat yourself, a friend or loved one to a gift of The Moonglow Christmas Series. Each of these books are truly a Christmas present.
*I realize this is more a review on the series. That is because they are short, easy to read books and I want you to enjoy the gift inside the covers of the books. This book is a feel good story of the celebration of Christmas. I highly recommend it, especially this year when we could all use an escape.* ( )

The Moonglow series is always so heartwarming. I love the feelings it brings to me every time. There’s no way anyone could be a Grinch after reading about the Timberton hotel and its magical inhabitants. Each year there are return guests as well as new ones, and in the end, they all leave as friends and family. I would love to be a part of it all.

If you haven’t read this series, you are missing out. It will get you in the Christmas mood faster than anything else. Oh, and did I mention that it has cookie recipes? Yum, yum! ( )
