pickFinished The Christmas Shoes last week and cried my eyes out over that one. This one was-thankfully-not that sad, although there are a couple of heavy moments. Nathan from The Christmas Shoes is no longer a child. He‘s a med student now and becomes involved with a frequent patient. These books are so sweet, so sappy. And outdated in some ways. But I‘ve enjoyed the first two so far and plan to keep going with this series.
Read this today after reading The Christmas Shoes last week, both require tissues 😢 There are plenty more in this series, so it looks like I‘ll be using them as part of the Series Challenge for 2023 hosted by @Andrew65 and @TheSpineView
I‘ve really enjoyed taking part in all the readathons this year Andrew-a great motivator 🙏🏻📖🤗

pickParts of me recalled pieces of this story so maybe I‘ve read it before. Nevertheless, it was nice to see 8yo Nathan all grown up and every bit as honorable as we‘d expect of a boy who raced out to surprise his dying mama a pair of shoes to wear as she walked through the pearly gates to her eternity.
pick4 Stars. This book is sweet, sad, emotional, romantic, cute. The main character is in school to become a doctor, through him working with his patients you learn about his mothers death from cancer that deeply affected him. Beautiful ending. #WinterGames2020 #TeamRedNosedReindeer @StayCurious #CrushTheRush #ReadYourWay
pickSo good. I loved it because it was about family but very sad because one of the characters had liver cancer.
so-so⭐️⭐️⭐️: Corny and predictable but heartwarming. A story with cancer and pediatric cardiology will get you. #HolidayReads
pickIn The Christmas Shoes, Nathan prayed for a miracle that didn‘t come. In The Christmas Blessing, Nathan finds himself in need of another miracle when the woman he loves grows sick. He questions whether he is cut out to be a doctor. If you want to be the best, find someone to pace yourself against.
It gave me chills, shed a few tears, and overall finished with that warm feeling we often search for in a Christmas tale, faith.
Last year I read The Christmas Shoes and instantly added the sequel, The Christmas Blessing, to my TBR list. Today I purchased it at my local library bookstore for $1. #bookhaul #christmas
#BookNDinner! I made @MrBook a treat after his long workday: crispy-on-the-outside—tender-and-juicy-on-the-inside baked chicken, mushroom rice vermicelli, broccoli florets, and the rest of the wine for me. MMMmmmm 😋! That hit the spot! This has been another presentation of: #MrBookBookBabeKitchen. Happy reads & happy eats!
#BookNDinner! Juicy, thick filet mignon grilled to perfection, with creamed spinach and stuffed baked potato. Paired with Pinot Noir. Yum! 😋 This has been another production of #MrBookBookBabeKitchen. Happy reads & happy eats!
#BookNLunch! Taking a break from wrapping presents to enjoy a three-cheese tuna melt with ranch seasoning and dill relish, on toasted peasant bread. Yum! 😋 This has been another production of #MrBookBookBabeKitchen. Happy reads & happy eats!
