Title: Catching
Christmas
Author: Terri Blackstock
Pages: 304
Year: 2018
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
My rating: 4 out of 5
stars.
If you are expecting the usual mystery from Terri, this
novel isn’t like anything of hers I have read before. It took me by surprise. It took me a bit to understand the plot, but
it was good as I got further into the book.
It is a book I wouldn’t recommend to those who recently lost a loved one
or are going through a season of caretaking.
I think it’s a good story where an elderly and faith-filled
grandmother is trying to find the right man for her only granddaughter. Callie is an elderly woman who required daily
help, but her granddaughter Sydney is trying to land a job as a first-year
lawyer. Finn is a cab driver but has an
interesting background once he decides to share it with Callie.
While it is nice to think of an elderly grandmother
matchmaking and going home to be with the Lord on Christmas, the romance part
of the tale is rushed, especially at the end of the book. Overall, it was an entertaining book and I
plan on passing it on for others to enjoy.
Perhaps you’ll enjoy it too!
