All I Have To Give: A Christmas Love Story (2008) - Plot & Excerpts
Even though this book follows the "The Gift of the Magi" storyline, I still wasn't sure about the ending. The description of the book led me to believe that someone was going to die at the end. (Spoiler) No one did. I thought the book was a real downer, even if it did have a happy (or somewhat happy) ending. With all the books out there I want to read this Christmas Season, I feel like I wasted my time on this one. Anna and Michael have been trying for years without success to have a baby. Now in her late thirties, Anna has given up on the hope of motherhood after heartbreaking miscarriages and shattered dreams. As Christmas nears, she has to consider the possibility that it might be time to empty out the nursery and convert it to a guest room. Amidst her heartache, Anna secretly struggles with strange health problems that have her very worried. But, as often happens at Christmastime, there are miracles in store for Anna and Michael. As each tries to give the other the perfect Christmas gift the magic of Christmas is working its way into their lives. And what each of them unwraps for Christmas will surprise everyone.My Review - this book was just okay for me. I knew exactly what was going to happen before it did. Not crazy about predictable books.
