If you loved the Snowmen of Mitford or if you love any of the Karon novels about Mitford, you'll love this book. I believe that it is about to become a new classic Christmas tale. Seldom are nativity figures central in the plot of a novel. But it is the discovery of an old, old set of "Santos" or nativity figurines that start off a journey of self-exploration and a centering of the Christmas spirit on the original Reason for the Season.
Pros: A lovely tale. Well written as always with Jan Karon. Christian-centered tale without being overly maudlin.
Cons: I think you'd need be be a bit familiar with the Mitford series to fully "get" some of the nuances of this book.
