Let It Snow Review

Over the holidays I read Let It Snow by John Green, Lauren Myracle and Maureen Johnson the book is 3 festive styled stories that are linked together. The first story is called The Jubilee Express it is about a girl who has the unfortunate name of Jubilee she is named that because her parents are obsessed with these ornaments called Flobie and they are collectables that when you get all the pieces they form a town and the Town Hall is called Jubilee Hall anyway long story short her parents get arrested because they were part of "the Flobie 5" and spend Christmas in jail so she gets sent to her Grandparents but doesn't make it because of the worst storm in 50 years so she gets stuck at a Waffle House and a kind guy called Stuart takes her to his out of the cold, she breaks up with her boyfriend, Noah who is a first class noob and goes out with Stuart who is lovely and kind. The second story is called A Cheertastic Christmas Miracle which links back to the first story because on the train that got stranded in the storm with Jubilee on there were a group of cheerleaders on the train that also take refuge in the Waffle House and the cheerleaders want to play Twister but there is only room for one more group of people in the Waffle House so the acting assistant manager rings his friends up to bring Twister but they are in competition with 2 other groups of people and have to battle to the Waffle House. Finally the third story is called The Patron Saint Of Pigs which is about a girl who is hung up on her relationship with her boyfriend ending and she always talks about herself even her friends say she can be self centred and how much she doesn't do things for anyone else only for her own benefit. The girl has a friend who has an obsession with pigs and her parents wouldn't let her buy one because it would grow to be much bigger and heavier than her but then she discovers a species called a teacup pig and yes they do actually fit into a teacup! ^.^
 Look how adorable they are awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
Anyway the teacup pig get delivered to the pet shop which is near the Starbucks where the girl works so she picks it up for her friend but when she goes to get it its not there so she goes on a hunt to find it and finds that it was just a challenge to see if she would give up or not and at the end everyone from all the stories ends up in this Starbucks and its all happy and cute. Seen as it is a Wintery tale though I would only recommend reading it at Christmas time but I enjoyed it very much.
Mucho Love,
