Weihnachten in Philadelphia

Gestern Abend habe ich mit einem Buch begonnen, auf das ich mich schon das ganze Jahr gefreut hatte. Für Weihnachten 2014 wurde es leider zu spät geliefert, und jetzt passt es endlich von der Jahreszeit her. Was ich bereits gelesen habe, gefällt mir auch wieder sehr gut, und ich bin schon gespannt, wie der Roman enden wird - und ob alle zufrieden sein werden. Aber da es in der Weihnachtsnacht spielt, hoffe ich doch auf ein positives Ende.
