Slightly painful, and weird read. Sometimes I felt like I was in the 1950s, other times it was 2022.

A very quick read indeed by James Patterson and Tad Safran!!! Completely different from James Patterson's usual books, but this is what I loved so much about it, how different it was. This whimsical, light-hearted, delightful read follows the song, "The Twelve Days of Christmas." Each day, the Sullivan household receives the next gift based on the song! I couldn't put this short read down wanting to find out who the mysterious gifter was!!!
I am not sure what to rate this one. I listened to the audiobook and had a hard time getting I to it. It was a pretty funny concept but I didn't connect with the characters. I may try again at a different time or try it in print.

It was cute and luckily a very quick read. But it was nothing great.
This book started nice, plateaued in the middle (too much repetition), but recovered with a happy ending. It's a fun, light, magical read for Christmas. I do feel that it would be most appreciated by young teens or maybe even those a little younger and I was not aware of this when I picked it up. There are two authors on the cover, James Patterson and Tad Safran, but I think Safran probably wrote most of this as it did not sound like Patterson at all, but maybe I'm wrong! I also think that this might be better as a movie than a book.
