I found this book a bit convoluted, but not hard to read. We find out about the ups and downs of the lives of these women, with some insightful comments which get lost somewhere in the narration. There are many characters but I didn’t get vested in any of them and the narration is mainly done by Marnie. This is a short novel which in turn is divided into twelve short stories. ![]() So basically Marnie goes on tangents, as we all do from time to time, when a word or a phrase reminds her of another event. What can be better at Christmas than cookies…and clubs – Buy the book today*Įven though each chapter in “ The Christmas Cookie Club” is supposed to be about the woman presenting the cookies, it isn’t since we hear the story through Marnie’s ears and are privy to her thoughts. ![]() My rating for The Christmas Cookie Club – 2 The host of the event is Marnie, who started the club, created the rules and has had a complex life herself. Each cookie delivery comes with a story, a recipe and a few historical facts about the ingredients. The event is the annual Christmas Cookie party where twelve women exchange cookies and donate some for charity. “ The Christmas Cookie Club” by Ann Pearlman ( Website | Facebook | Twitter)is a short fictional novel which takes place on one December evening. ![]()
