The Christmas Mystery by Jostein Gaarder
3.0
This novel had an intriguing storyline - a boy with a magic advent calendar where each door reveals a little more the of the story of a young girl called Elizabet and her journey to Bethlehem to see the birth of Christ.
Unfortunately for me, it fell a little short of the mark as it felt a little preachy and had an almost sinister ending. You could also definitely tell this was written for a young adult audience.
Overall, 3 stars from me.
