review 1: I love Christmas stories and this one was recommended to me by somebody in a book group.Overall I really did enjoy the story. However, it was a little hard for me to initially get into reading it. The beginning of the book contains many references to football. I am not a sports fan, so it was difficult for me to push through the first few chapters.Once the story started growing I was able to enjoy it and I finished reading the book pretty quickly. I find the main character easy to relate to, despite her love of sports, because she is a mother and I think that many of her thoughts and feelings are ones that mothers commonly experience. I loved that the book had a bit of a funny twist.I would definitely recommend this book for mothers that love sports and enjoy reading ... moreChristmas stories. It would be hard for me to suggest it to anybody else because I don't know that they would be able to relate to the story enough to enjoy it.This is the first book I've read by this author, but I've heard many great things about her. I will definitely read another of her novels sometime in the near future. I enjoy the style of her writing and I think that I'd really enjoy a novel that had a different theme.
review 2: The Great Christmas Bowl is the story of an almost empty-nester Mom. Her youngest child is now a senior in high school. The book takes us through the holidays as Marianne prepares for all her kids to come home for Christmas. It's a lighthearted, honest story. There are several comical incidents, and I smiled for much of the book. It's an easy read. Warren writes in a way that allows you to fall into the story from the first sentence. I recommend The Great Christmas Bowl for anyone who loves Christmas tales and all the moms out there. Give yourself a break and indulge in this delightful story! less
