Fun holiday mystery

Nice holiday mystery with magic, friendship and a little romance. Perfect for reading surrounded by holiday decorations, (nothing dark or graphic) and a feel-good ending. I hope to see more Humbug gang stories.

Bella has the best stories

I am a big Bella Falls fan. Her books are amazing and this book didn't disappoint. Christmas will always have a little Bah Humbug in it for me now.

sweet stories to keep you company for snowy weather.

Affectionately suggest this tale for anyone interested in quaint winter wonderland story. Its both bitter sweet and yet light hearted.

Cute story narrator sounded bored.

I think the stories were really cute. Love the snooty sound to Mrs. Claus instead of sticky sweet. However the narrator for Aurora made her sound bored and disengaged to all of it. Even when she finally found her joy, made her sound monotone.

Loved it

Bella Falls has crafted a sweet and wonderful holiday story. It’s filled with well developed characters who quickly seem to be friends. Johanna Parker gave a stellar performance as she brought it all together and to life. I’ve already purchased the next book/audiobook in the wonderful story. I highly recommend this to cozy paranormal fans.

Heartwarming storytelling

If you enjoy The Hallmark Channel’s Christmas movies you’ll love this book! I will definitely be reading the rest of the books in this series!

Cute Holiday Story

This was a lovely holiday story, as another reviewer said- if you like Hallmark movies- this is for you! I like the premise of the story and the characters and the relationships between them. The only thing I am less than excited about is the narrator. At first I thought maybe she spoke English as a second language as I could not place the accent or "lilt" of her speech. I looked her up on google- it seems she is well regarded... I read that she is known for her southern accent- which is when I realized that is what she was using for this book- her version of a southern accent. As a southerner - I have to admit it's not the best. And speaking of other reviewers- someone said they were not a fan of her "sing-song" cadence- and I have to agree, Maybe the accent would sound better without the sing-songiness?

Great book

I just love this book actually both books It's enjoyable funny and a good mystery A treat for the ears

Good story/Odd vocal choices

Interesting story. I would love to find out more about the characters. But the narrator had an odd habit of raising the tone of her voice up at the end of every sentence. I found that a little offputting, Overall, I did enjoy it.

Down home Christmas

I thoroughly enjoyed this Christmas mystery story. I really like the narrator's southern accents. I love listening to a good southern accent...it so reminds me of home.

Friends, family & Christmas.. .you can't beat that.
