I’ll admit I was drawn
to this book for two reasons –it takes place in a small Michigan town and the
main character’s name is Sylvia. As I rarely see my name in print The
Christmas Clock was a must read.
Christmas is the time of
year for believing in miracles and happy endings and The Christmas
Clock delivers. This is a heartwarming tale of love lost and found,
saying goodbye and saying hello.
Three intersecting storylines
are packed into the novella’s 131 pages, all revolving around a Victorian clock
in the local antique store a young boy wants to buy for his ailing grandmother.
Some readers might find the book too simple in its predictability while others
will be looking for the nearest Kleenex box. The Christmas Clock is standard-issue sentimental holiday fare but enjoyable,
nonetheless.
