My husband gave me this book as an early Christmas present, so right there it's fabulous! This book has all the Hallmark holiday feels. From the beautiful photographs to the festive graphics to the fun and lovely fonts used, the book itself is gorgeous. It features a mixture of Hallmark channel icons, holiday recipes, and behind the scene looks at some of my favorite Hallmark holiday movies. The photos and information on Evergreen alone excites my festive soul ... just check out that red truck photo on page 26. Fabulous! It's a fun and easy read and is a great book for any Hallmark Christmas movie fan. Getting it as a gift makes it that much more special.

A lovely companion volume for superfans, offering oodles of full-color set photos, recipes, small craft ideas, and mini-quizzes.

I am not the target audience, but I understand the appeal satisfaction that has contributed to the evolving phenomenon. It would have been a pleasant surprise if the editors had delved into the tropes, staples, and variations - if not interrogate them - but that was my own wishful thinking.

So we’re in the middle of Hallmarks Christmas in July and I needed to read this book—winter/Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year and I am having such anticipation for cooler weather and decorating. Hallmark movies NEVER. NEVER EVER disappoint regardless how cliche and predictable they are. Also this book had some AMAZING recipes in it. I think I saved every single one. Great family and party food. This book helped fill that little void of the holidays when it’s 80° plus weather in New England. I’m also fortunate I live somewhere were I have every single season. I cannot wait for the snow!! ❄️

I bought this book yesterday to help me get into the Christmas spirit.
Although a lot of the recipes doesn’t appeal to me, the book is so lovely and joyful.
I will definitely be returning to this throughout the season and in years to come
