Book Review: Christmas at Fireside Cabins

Christmas at Fireside Cabins by Jenny Hale

Share

If you’ve read my reviews or followed me on social for long, you know I love Jenny Hale’s books! She puts out one summer book and one Christmas book every year, both of which I wait for wait baited breath. Out of all her Christmas books though (and there have been some great ones!), Christmas at Fireside Cabins is my favorite holiday book she’s written.

Lila Evans looks forward to spending a week every holiday season with her friends exploring a new town as she tries to forget the pain of losing her father. Unfortunately, this year may be their last, as everyone’s lives are starting to go in different directions. So, Lila wants to make sure it’s the best yet.

Pinewood Hills sounds like the quintessential Hallmark town, but when Lila and her friends arrive, they find a rundown cabin and a grumpy coffee shop owner. Instead of running for the hills, however, Lila feels compelled to stay and help widow Eleanor Finely, who confesses the cabins are headed for permanent closure. Lila has such a sweet and helping heart that I found myself rooting for her from the first page.

I also love that it centers around a girls trip, because if you’ve followed me for long you know I love my girls trips! And having had more than one experience where I showed up to my rental house to find it was nothing like the pictures, I could definitely relate to the predicament the ladies find themselves in when they arrive at the rundown Fireside Cabins.

Between the rundown cabin and the surly coffee shop owner who is in desperate need of a little Christmas cheer, Lila has her work cut out for her. But maybe it’s just the kind of project she needs to get her mind off missing the family she no longer has and her friends whose lives seem to be pulling them in opposite directions.

You’ll fall in love with this sweet little town and wish you could go visit Fireside Cabins yourself! ❤️️

The hubby @seegreatart and I took a road trip to F The hubby @seegreatart and I took a road trip to Fort Pierce, FL this weekend to see the latest Florida Highwaymen exhibition at @aebackusmuseum. 🎨 

My hubby has written extensively on the Florida Highwaymen, and we are lucky to get to see so much of their work here in Florida. This group of more than two dozen African American painters captured the Florida landscape in bright, vivid colors from the 1950s on. They could often be found selling the paintings out of the trunks of their cars. 

You used to be able to nab these paintings in garage sales around the state from people who didn't know what they had. However, those days are long gone. Now, these paintings can go for tens of thousands.

One of the original Highwaymen, Roy “R.A.” McLendon, was in attendance last evening. How work hangs in the Smithsonian Museum of African American History and Culture.

Have you ever seen these paintings around FL?

The woman blushed and seemed embarrassed that Lucy had caught her looking through the shelf. "Do you have Hydrangeas on Hill Street?"

"I do." Lucy nodded, moving to the left of the woman and plucking the title off the shelf. "I read it when it first came in. It's a lovely book."

"I feel a little silly." The woman opened the book and turned it so Lucy could see the author photograph on the back flap. "It's my first book. I still get a little thrill every time I find it in a bookstore." Her cheeks still flushed pink, her eyes not meeting Lucy's.
