I didn't believe...now I do

When a friend told me about "Christmas Gifts, Christmas Voices" I thought she was exaggerating. Surely no book could be as incredible as she cliamed. But to humor her, I read the book. Now I'm telling people how extraordinary the book is. It is a heartbreaking book, but it contains gentle humor (I like the scene in the hardware/toy store.) And as sad as the book is, it leaves you with a good,peaceful feeling... If you don't believe me I don't blame you. But do what I did. Read the book and find out for yourself.

Betten than "Skipping Christmas"

I love Grisham's legal trillers. But I've got to truthfully say tht I was disappointed with his holiday novel Skipping Christmas. A friend recommended John Allen's (an author I've never heard of, by the way) "Christmas Gifts, Christmas Voices." I've got to say this book is the best book I've read in a long, long time. The funny parts are funny. The sad parts are overwhelmingly sad. And when you're done reading it, it sticks with you. You find you really care about the characters. And as promised on the cover, the story (without being "pie in the sky") really does give you comfort and hope. Bottom line: Skip "Skipping Christmas" read "Christmas Gifts, Christmas Voices."

The All Time Best Christmas Book I've Ever Read

When you're done with this book, you look at it...it's a thin book. And you wonder, how did the author accomplish so much in so few pages. The cover says that it is a novel of hope and comfort. This story definitely gives you hope and comfort...and a few smiles along the way. The story is also heartbreaking. (Allen draws out his characters so well, that it reads like non-fiction.)When the story is over you feel uplifted. The heartbreak has been resolved. And you have a sense of hope.

A Wonderful Book, A Wonderful Message

Why aren't there more books like this? This is a book that is uplifting, heartwarming, and touching. There's no sex or coarseness. The violence that is referred to (it is not portrayed) is integral to the story.The resolution at the end is a classic.If they make a movie of this I will be the first in line!Are there any other books by this particular John Allen? If so, please tell me.(PS. Don't read the synopsis on the back cover. It gives away too much.)

Best Christmas Book ever!!!

Christmas Gifts, Christmas Voices is very moving...it is very sad, but it contains touches of light humor. The sadness is very real and intense. But the light moments help move the story along. There is a glimpse of a young boy studying potato bugs turning into "BBs." There is the teenager with the battered pickup truck. The problem of picking out ripe cantaloupes is portrayed.If you read any new Christmas book this year, I'd recommend Christmas Gifts, Christmas Voices. It's unlike any other Christmas story. And if you're like me, you'll find that you want to read it again and again.
