Currently Reading: Call Me Mrs. Miracle and Fables vol #19: Snow White

Call Me Mrs. Miracle

I simply adore the movie on Hallmark. It's such a cute store and who doesn't love Mrs. Miracle as she continues to meddle in everyone's lives. I bought the book back in November and after that disappointing Christmas book I just finished, now I figured it's time for an actual Christmas book. Can't wait to start this and this will also be the first time reading a book by Debbie Macomber.


Book: Call Me Mrs. Miracle (Angelic Intervention book #8) by Debbie Macomber

Description:

Mrs. Miracle on 34th Street...

This Christmas, Emily Merkle (just call her Mrs. Miracle) is working in the toy department of Finley's the last family-owned department store in New York City. And her boss is none other than Jake Finley, the owner's son.

For Jake, holiday memories of brightly wrapped gifts, decorated tress and family gatherings were destroyed in a Christmas Eve tragedy years before. Now Christmas means only one thing to him -- and to his father. Profit. Because they need a Christmas miracle to keep the business afloat.

Holly Larson needs a miracle, too. she wants to give her eight-year-old nephew, Gabe, the holiday he deserves. Holly's widowed brother is in the army and won't be home for Christmas, but at least she can get Gabe that toy robot from Finley's, the one gift he desperately wants. If she can figure out how to pay for it...

Fortunately, it's Mrs. Miracle to the rescue. Next to making children happy, she likes nothing better than helping others -- and that includes doing a bit of matchmaking!

This Christmas will be different. For all of them.



Fables, Vol. 19: Snow White (Fables, #19)

I'm looking forward to reading this. This series has a really interesting take on fairy tales.
