Book Review - All I Want for Christmas, by Jenny Hale

All I want for Christmas is a story about the importance of family.
Overall, it was a reasonably enjoyable story.
Unfortunately I didn’t manage to connect with the characters fully. Perhaps if I’d connected with the characters more I would have experienced a deeper level of sadness, or taken more comfort in the heart-warming side of the story. Instead, it just made me feel a sort of numb level of sadness, most likely due to me losing one of my grandmas a couple of months ago.
I did like that Leah’s nan’s friend was called Muriel, as that was the name of my grandma’s sister, who I also miss.
