The First Backwards Christmas by Brooke Williams – Review by Sheri Schrader
The First Backwards Christmas by Brooke Williams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The First Backwards Christmas by Brooke Williams is a sweet, holiday story. This is a short story that tells the origins of Backwards Christmas in South Pole, Alaska. The story of hometown man Jack and the pilot Joyce. Jack is worried that his town is going to fade away as people are moving away to more prosperous cities. After Joy urges people to vote for Jack in the mayoral race Jack has to solve the problem of the city. Not only does Jack need to solve the city’s problem he must also figure it out so Joyce can stay based in the town.
This a very quick fun holiday read. I like the characters. Jack is sweet and has a bit of a silly side. Joyce is caring and smart. The two are a fun couple who genuinely care for people and each other. I recommend this if you need to get in the Christmas spirit. I look forward to reading more about South Pole, Alaska in the future.
