This wasn't the WORST bestseller I've read this year.

I've listened to this song every Christmas for as long as I can remember. I never knew that it was a book, and when I saw that it was, I had to grab it.

Of course, that means I was crying almost the whole time, but I just love the overall feeling this book gives. It's not just about grief and loss, it's about the Christmas Spirit, hope, forgiveness, and second chances.

Sometimes it's the little things in life we don't expect that touches our hearts and can make a world of difference. Kindness and love, can go a very long way.
