About The Book: Christmas is a holiday with family at the heart of the season. In this short story from the author of Continuum,The Colorado Cow and Other Stories and Another Fine Christmas, Frank discovers that sometimes discovering who you are is the best present, and that often the family you choose can be stronger than the family into which you were born.
The Review: Sometimes you pick up a book expecting one thing and get something else. Sometimes that's a good thing, and sometimes it's a great thing. Just For Christmas is one of the great things.
Just For Christmas is a very touching coming of age/learning who you are and accepting yourself story told through the memories of one young man's Christmas Eve family gatherings throughout his life. Family isn't always about the people you are related to by blood—sometimes it's thicker than blood. This is one of those stories that will make you think, form a lump in your throat and it's definitely one you won't forget any time soon.
