This Christmas novella is written by three well-known authors of Amish books. I recommend it to all lovers of Amish Christmas books. Thanks to NetGalley and Kensington for this advanced copy.

A Christmas Reunion by Shelley Shepard Gray centers around Tricia Troyer and her Amish family. She is excited when she finds out that an English friend of her cousin who had visited the family last Christmas would once again be joining them. Even though their backgrounds prevent them from developing a relationship, they both have developed strong feelings for one another through writing letters through the year. This story is interesting to see how this will be handled. You will not want to put this one down. I was surprised at how their relationship was resolved and felt it was out of character from other Amish books I have read.

We Gather Together by Lenora Worth is a book you will not want to put down as it centers on two Amish families who end up staying at the same Inn. One family is there for a family reunion and the other for a wedding, This book reminded me of an Amish version of the Hatfields and McCoys famly feud. You do not want to miss reading this one to see how the storyline ends. I enjoyed this one very much.

Hitting All The Right Notes by Rachel J. Good is an excellent read of hurt, forgiveness, relationships and miracles for several of the characters. This is a great book centering on Christmas miracle

I adore Christmas romances, I also adore Amish romances, so this sounded like the perfect read for me.

I loved Shelley Shepard Gray’s story, A Christmas Reunion, I only wish it was a full length book.

I also enjoyed We Gather Together by Lenora Worth, a new to me author.

I didn’t enjoy the third novella at all, and didn’t finish it.

I loved reading about a wintertime Christmas, one day I hope to escape my summertime Christmas for a white one.

I received an ARC from NetGalley, and all opinions are my own.

A wonderful collection of three short stories that will help you get into the Christmas spirit.
I loved all three.
Each author brought Faith, Hope and Love to the Christmas table along with lots of wonderful food that will make you drool.
I loved that each one has a miracle in them too. These stories show proof that miracles really do happen even in real life. Especially when we least expect them. The Lord always intervenes at the right time and place.
Love loved these stories
Only one problem. They're too short lol. There over before they even begin that's how good they are!
I'm giving one 5 stars. I highly recommend
My thanks for a copy of this book. I was NOT required to write a positive review. All opinions expressed are mine.

The Christmas Gathering is a book of novellas by three well-known Amish fiction writers. Each novella centers around Christmas and the Christmas season. All of the stories are heartwarming. They are about love, forgiveness, second chances, family and faith. I would recommend this book. I received a complimentary copy of this book but was not required to leave a review.

When 3 of your favorite Amish authors add a story to the collection you can’t go wrong. It was great to revisit some of my most loved characters while meeting some new ones. All 3 stories were wonderful and I recommend them.

I read amish books because they make me feel relaxed and warm inside. I really enjoyed story 1 and 2. If they were full length i would def read them. Number 3 was not my cup of tea. But they were wholesome and fuzzy. Thank you to netgalley for letting me read this e arc in exchange for an honest opinion

A collection of Amish stories centered around Christmas, The Christmas Gathering is an easy read with stories of forgiveness and love. Wonderful characters.

Releases Sept. 24th. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

These short stories were by some beloved authors and centered around Christmas. What more could a reader ask for? I usually prefer full novels because I love to get lost in the story but these stories were perfect reading to get me excited about the upcoming Christmas season. Thoroughly enjoyed and will definitely recommend.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and did not have to write a review. All opinions are solely mine.

3 stars

1st story by Shelley Shepard Gray is excellent. I would've loved this to be a full length book and really fleshed out.

2nd book by Lenora Worth is my favorite of the three. I really wish these were full sized novels. Makes me in the mood for Christmas.

I was not a fan of the 3rd book at all. I did not finish.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from netgalley and the publisher.

An uplifting collection of stories set at Christmas, filled with friendship, family and hope. I enjoyed all of them, especially Lenora Worth's that is connected to some of her other books. It has a theme of forgiveness that hit close to home. I liked how the gatherings in each story were unique to their settings, especially in the last one at a teen youth center. Reaching out to people who are alone and need hope and friendship was a lovely idea, especially at Christmastime. It was a good reminder to be hospitable. The tender romances included in each were sweet and squeaky clean.

Recommend for readers looking for light, inspirational stories. Fine for teens and up.

I loved the Christ.as Gathering. Three stories by three wonderful authors. I really needed a little Christmas and that's just what this books gave me. Each story was well written. I like the format each story was a quick read for me and just what I needed. Pick. Up this book and have a great day of reading. Thanks netgalley and Kensington Publishing for the gift of an arc in exchange fir my honest opinion of this week.

These three short Christmas stories in one volume make for entertaining reading during the holiday season, or any time of the year. Join three different families as they celebrate together while working through their problems and finding love. You may have to suspend some disbelief where the Amish part of the stories is concerned, since no Amish I have ever heard of live as some of these people do. Since the stories are brief, they also feel a bit rushed. But they are all clean and easy reads to quickly read through and get lost in.

How can you go wrong with a book that contains 3 stories instead of one?! I love Romance Anthologies and this one was perfect for celebrating Christmas in July. All three stories were wonderful, and the fact they were short allowed me to complete one whole story in one sitting which I liked. My only critique would be that I struggled to believe some of the love connections because they felt rushed for me, unfortunately. So for me, the romance didn't quite pull me in. That said, the stories were still wonderful with faith filled families, stories of second chances and forgiveness, and the love the family and community showed in these stories was something I truly enjoyed. All in all, a sweet read for celebrating Christmas during the Summer.

Three Christmas holiday romances, by three of the authors that I follow!
We get to attend a big reunion, and a fun scavenger hunt, thrown in opposites attract, non Amish and Amish, is it possible to go anywhere?
Then an Amish wedding, and a family reunion, two different events, but then add in an attraction, and a family feud. Oh, my sparks fly from a lot of directions!
The final one has some rebellious Amish teens, a music group, and a young woman defying her parents and going out where she shouldn't. Some recurring characters appear here, and full of wisdom, we watch as world get torn upside down, but with a glimmer of hope!
I enjoyed these quick reads!

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗥𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗠𝗔𝗦 𝗚𝗔𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗚 was a lovely holiday based anthology filled with love and holiday spirit. I enjoy reading these types of collections because they allow me to enjoy a quick and easy read between longer, heavier stories. They are also a great way to get to know new to me authors. In this particular book, I was familiar with all three authors and enjoyed each short story immensely. My favourite was 𝗛𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 by Rachel J. Good because I adore her Surprised By Love series which it is a spinoff of. I am giving this the judy.ann.loves.books stamp of approval, TBR and Enjoy!

A Christmas story in July?! Yes, please! This was a good story. I greatly enjoyed it. Don’t skip this one.
