Review

2 short stories; ‘Christmas Letters' and ‘The Perfect Christmas.

Both of the stories carry a similar theme of finding love with the most unlikely characters, but probably the most predictable.

The book was an easy read, the type of book to curl up with on a cold winter's day. Easily read in a couple of sittings. However I found the storyline rather shallow. I would have liked to have a greater sense that the stories were set in Seattle, more about the historic waterfront perhaps - the stories could have been set in any city.
