Book review: Under the Mistletoe and other stories


 Book review:


🌸 This book is a collection of short stories related to Christmas and New Year events when Santa comes to deliver gifts to all his children. The stories comprises of hope, love, healing, new beginnings , acceptance, and much more.


🌸 Each story embarks a different lesson and diving new horizons. The book talks about loss and grief, bondings, new blooming romance and many more.


🌸This book teaches us that as long as we do not allow ourselves to take a step forward, suffering will always be our master. 


"Naughty or nice" was childish and heartwarming. It is a brilliant stroke by the author as it attempts to explain how to interact with a child on a topic that should be implemented at a young age. The other stories are good as well.


🌸My favourite story was “A Foggy Memory”. I found the main character Samantha visiting Benakatti to be very relatable to some of the experiences that I have recently gone through. Some more stories that I liked are - ‘Elfish Grinch’, ‘Naughty or Nice’ & ‘Secret Santa’. 


🌸 The author has beautifully presented the stories and a bit of poetry sections inbetween. All the stories are heart warming.The poetry pieces include- ‘The Pudding Story’, ‘The Ginger bread Experiment’, & ‘ The Unwarm Welcome’.


🌸 I loved reading these stories and would recommend this to all who like reading short stories.


🌸 Happy Reading!
