Simply lovely. This year will be my third Christmas reading it, and I’ve decided it’s going to be one of my personal traditions.

“A short read that swept me to a different place and made me have an immediate soft spot for Furlong. I love Keegan’s writing and how she is able to take you on a character’s moral journey with such tenderness and humanness. Also loved Foster from Claire Keegan as well.”

“A novella you finish in one sitting but packs all the feels. Recommend reading around the holidays.”
