Making Spirits Bright - Fern Michaels et al

One Sentence Summary:
A collection of four romantic Christmas season novellas.

Review:
over all this was a cute, easy to read book. Some of the stories were better than others, the one by Bass was my favourite and the one by Rossiter was my least favourite. The romance was a bit rushed in all of the stories but that is to be expected when you are writing with less than 150 pages to work with. For a light read around the holiday season (or anytime of year if you are like me and occasionally miss Christmas) I recommend this. Be warned the writing is really not particular good.
6/10
8/10

If you enjoyed this I recommend:
Nora Roberts
Debbie Macomber
Robyn Carr

There are 3 possible ratings

The first is overall as in overall how good I think the book is

1-2 DO NOT READ,

3-4 Maybe read if you are in a cabin stuck for days and there is absolutely nothing else to read,

5-6 if you like the genre go for it,

7-8 if you think you might like the genre but aren't really sure go for it,

9-10 even if you hate the genre read this book

The second (which will be pink/purple) is the "smut rating", for trashy romance which rates totally on ease of read, story, sex and happy endings

The third (which will be in green because I like green) is "for the younger reader" as in would a young teen get a kick out of this and put down the XBox controller long enough to finish the book (that being 10/10)

Also I will categorize these books -

Elementary School (no sex/violence easy to read in grade 4 but subject appropriate for younger kids too),

Middle School (no sex, some violence but not nightmare inducing and easy to read at grade 6-9) and

High School (good enough for an adult but with teenage characters may include sex / violence OR coming of age stories OR a book I just think should be read before adulthood).
