My Comments:

A Bright Red Ribbon:
I loved the beginning of this story.. But by about 25-30 pages into it I couldn't even deal with it anymore! Go figure? I finished it, but I had to force myself. It has so much promise and then all of a sudden it just got so whiny and weird.

The 24 Days of Christmas:
This one was really cute. :) I loved the kids in the story, and it ended sweet. It was a nice addition to the book and a cute Christmas story.

Santa Unwrapped:
Story was cute, but felt the writing style was a little jumpy and repetitious. Also felt the story was cut WAY short.. There was so much more I wanted to know.

Maybe This Christmas:
I enjoyed most of this one.. found it to be a little vulgar in the beginning, and sort of hit home a little bit with the situation and reminded me of a family member of mine. But I liked the outcome and thought it was full of faith and hope. A good Christmas message. :)
