I finished a sweet little book last night, called “Christmas Past” by Robert Vaughan. I always like to read a small Christmas type story this time of year, and this one really fit the bill. Light and easy to read, but with a good heart and message. A high-powered man and his wife are so immersed in their careers, that they don’t have time for each other, much less their two children. In a last-ditch attempt to have a nice Christmas for their kids, they sign up to go to an antebellum mansion to celebrate a “Christmas Past”, a recreation of a Victorian era Christmas. What they don’t realize until they get there that they are no longer in the present, but have been magically transported back to a simpler time. When families spent time together, did things for one another, made gifts for one another, and remembered the reason for the season by putting Christ first. This was a really short book, at only 141 pages, but it was a really good one. 🙂
For the record, that makes #67 so far this year, with a total of 23,285 pages read. Up next is the first book in the Abram’s Daughters series by Beverly Lewis, called “The Covenant”. I am really looking forward to it 🙂
