Book Review: One More for Christmas by Sarah Morgan
I don’t watch a lot of television, and I only have Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney+ for streaming services (of which I don’t watch very often), so I tend to miss out on the dearth of holiday hallmark movies that come out this time of year. Luckily, books are always the answer to any dilemma…

You made me laugh with your observations about what the public thinks about Canadian writers! Too bad that this was a disappointment but I’m glad you’re open to trying this author again.
Haha is it kinda true tho? We are all up in our freezing cold cabins haha
I TRAVELED THROUGH THE INTERNET AND CHANGED SOMETHING IN A CANADIAN HOME! 😮
Also, when I did my MFA in creative writing, there were two lows a writer could sink to: the worst was writing about other people in the class *awkward*

Hahah right???
