Librarian Maura Beth has just returned from her honeymoon in the fourth series (The Wedding Circle) entry. Christmas is approaching, and the residents of Cherico, MS, are having a hard time finding some holiday cheer in a struggling economy. Local shops are closing, money was stolen from the beloved Miz Periwinkle's restaurant, and a cowboy boot manufacturer has pulled out of building a factory in the town. Maura decides to host a special meeting of the Cherry Cola Book Club and have members share uplifting stories. Between the inspiring tales and a visit from a famous country music star, there's encouragement for this tight-knit community yet. VERDICT A Christmas tale full of cozy Southern flair. It includes two recipes and a reading group guide. © Copyright 2015. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
