This is a cute short story. I enjoyed the descriptions of the scenes and liked the characters of Elf and Ally. Elf, short for Elphinia, is the most clever of names for a holiday book.

If you need a little something to pass the time, this may be the perfect couple hours for you. It is an easy read with likable characters. I was a little disappointed in the plot. Even short stories need a good plot, which this book is lacking. Nevertheless, it provided nice relaxation time by the fire with a hot cup of tea. 3.5 stars. ( )

A nice and tidy little story. The sisters are good kind-hearted people. Not exactly my cup of tea but well written none the less. ( )
