It was an incredible reading. A roller coaster of emotions filled with tears, laughs, hatred, and pity. A must read every Christmas.

The Christmas List is the second Evans book (Grace was the first), that our family has read aloud during the holiday season. Life, by devine design, presents many opportunities to discover the Grace of God. Every so often an author comes along who can tell a story, teach a lesson and entertain the heart, mind and soul simultaniously. Richard Paul Evans is one such author. He allows the heart to laugh while the eyes tear, reflecting the trials of our earthly boarding school existence, while the superintendant of love watches over us. I highly recommend this book.
