![]() ![]() Maureen Johnson’s “The Jubilee Express” kicks off Let It Snow, and let me begin by saying that I loved her novel, The Name of the Star. It just so happened that I ended up enjoying the first story the most and the last one, well, not as much as the other two. It’s also quite sweet, as implied by the presence of “romances” in the title, but not syrupy. ![]() Let It Snow: Three Holiday Romances is just right for the season it’s a light, quick read that’s packed with humor and, most importantly, holiday cheer. Review: If ever there’s a time of the year for a feel-good read, I think it’s Christmas. It’s Christmas, though, and sometimes things have a way of falling into place. Finally, no amount of snowfall will translate into a day off from Starbucks from Addie, who’s coping with a broken heart that may distract her from an important holiday task. They brave the perilous roads to get there and have a few adventures on the way. She ends up at a local Waffle House, which also happens to be the destination for Tobin and his friends. After her parents are jailed under some very bizarre circumstances, Jubilee has to go to her grandparents’ house in Florida, but the storm brings her train to a halt. ![]() To Sum It Up: A huge snowstorm wreaks havoc for the holidays for the characters in these three intertwined short stories. By John Green, Maureen Johnson, & Lauren Myracle ![]()
