This was a strange short story. On the one hand, it wasn't bad, but on the other I very much wanted more from it than the little that was there. Three stars, and another classic off my TBR pile. Recommend for fans of the author.

4 // Oh this was so very cute! I wish I had read it prior to Christmas but nonetheless the writing was lovely. The only thing that took me aback was when Della said "something just a little bit near to being worthy of the honor of being owned by Jim". Yeah... that was a bit *dun dun du-du-du-du-dun *

Very charming and quaint, though I wish it had been longer. I would have liked to read James’s perspective in addition to Della’s.

This was so precious, heartwarming, and wholesome. I had never read it up until now, and I question how I managed to live without this glorious light in my life. I implore everyone to please give this a read, its very short but undeniably worth it. A truly delightful read.
