Beautiful story!, October 09, 2009
By Heather

If you haven t read Christmas Jars, the New York Times bestselling book by Jason F. Wright, you ve missed out on a classic Christmas story that will change how you view the season of giving. Its sequel, aptly titled Christmas Jars Reunion is reminiscent of the first.  Yet, this story stands on its own, bringing the reader once again into Hope s Jensen s remarkable life. The author includes a quote from a Christmas Jar recipient at the beginning of each chapter. But even Hope Jensen needs to learn what the spirit of selfless giving is truly about. When Clark Maxwell re-enters her life, she must decide if she can allow him into her heart once again, and discover that loving someone might just be worth the risk. Hope sets the lofty goal of distributing 1,001 Christmas Jars in honor of Chuck, deceased owner of Chuck s diner. But in the process, the importance of the original Christmas Jar is lost. It will take a stranger, a young girl, and an interview of a lifetime to bring back the true meaning that the Christmas Jar was intended for. Christmas Jars Reunion is a story that will inspire you to look closer at your life and remind you of the significance of selfless giving. --By Heather, October 09, 2009
