BLUE CHRISTMAS by Mary Kay Andrews, the third in a series, unfolds in the festive chaos of Weezie Foley's vintage shop. As a newcomer to the series, I sensed a lack of depth due to my unfamiliarity with the characters from the first two books. Despite its simplicity, the novel offers a cozy, basic Christmas tale. Weezie's quirky world, filled with antiques and a penchant for holiday cheer, is marred by misadventures—stolen items, a disastrous dinner, and the unexplained aversion of her boyfriend, Daniel, to Christmas. The narrative's simplicity may appeal to those seeking an uncomplicated festive read, though I felt a slight disconnect without the foundation of the preceding books.✏ Favourite quote: “Never, ever ask a former clergyman to say the blessing over a holiday dinner. Not if you like your dinner warm, anyway."
