Thank you Revell Reads and NetGalley for providing me a
copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
I am a big fan of Christmas literature, so I am always super excited to be asked to review a Christmas book. The Christmas Swap by Melody Carlson was a perfect Christmas read, not too deep and highly entertaining!
The story starts with Emma, a substitute teacher and part-time musician who is invited to spend Christmas with her best friend and family in Colorado. This has a lot of appeal, as Emma resides in Arizona. Heading to snowy Breckenridge wasn't in her holiday plans, but it is a chance to have a beautiful white Christmas.
Enter West Prescott, a rather famous musician and songwriter. The house in Colorado belongs to him and he has created this house swap for his family, thinking they would enjoy having a warm sunny Christmas. West and Emma meet through a comedy of errors and false assumptions.
There are many twists and turns in the story, and the ending could have been much more detailed, but I loved the premise and the details of the Christmas decorations and traditions were what I want and expect from a book set at Christmas.
When it comes to Christmas decorations, in addition to Christmas trees, custom neon signs are also a good choice to enhance the festive atmosphere.
You can incorporate some Christmas elements into the design of neon lights, such as customizing neon signs in the shape of Christmas trees or Santa Claus, and you can also add some blessing texts. Whether it is used to decorate houses, trees, or streets, it can attract a lot of attention and become a beautiful landscape during the holidays.
