Book Review: Nothing for Christmas & Other Holiday Tales by John Bolen

Sep 06, 2012 | Rita

Nothing for Christmas

About the Book

A strange man in a bar declares that he is the real Santa; a couple married fifty years and both succumbing to Alzheimer’s grasp to hold on to their memories of love; men tell tales of how a 12 inch doll altered their lives; these are just three of the nine short stories that deal with the comical, sentimental, dramatic, and sometimes tragic aspects of the human condition during the Holiday Season.

My Thoughts

I love Christmas stories! Mr. Bolen does a wonderful job telling all the different stories in Nothing for Christmas & Other Holiday Tales. Each is a short story which makes this book and even easier read because you can read a story at a time which is what I did (that is what happens when you are a mom!) Each story and the characters re so endearing that you almost feel like your are there watching the story unfold right before your eyes.

Purchase the Book

You can purchase Nothing for Christmas & Other Holiday Tales on Amazon or Barnes and Noble
