I started reading "The
Christmas Club" around 3:00 one morning just after I went to bed and was
immediately immersed in the story of Verna, Edward, and others in early 1950s
Cleveland and how something as simple as a $5.00 bill can change someone's life
for the better, sometimes without that person even knowing it.
Barbara Hinske has taken a
number of people who did not know each other and interwoven their lives
together by simple acts of kindness and selfless caring. Each life is touched in an honest and pure
way that not only allows the receiver to feel better, but also warms the soul
of the giver.
The book is short, written in
Hinske's usual conversational style, and can easily be read in one or two
sittings. It is perfect to read while
waiting in traffic or at a doctor's office.
Once you start reading "The Christmas Club," time will fly and
all of a sudden you will be sad to see that you have reached the end of the
book -- that is what happened to me.
Thank you Barbara Hinske for another enjoyable read!!
