A review by skullfullofbooks
The Christmas Thief by Carol Higgins Clark, Mary Higgins Clark
2.0
It is really hard to like characters who have won the lottery and are complaining about normal life problems. I didn't connect with any of them at all. Characterization was lacking, with no real differentiation between personalities. The biggest difference was that Opal found every way to complain about losing her money as fast as she won it.
I'm also confused as to who we should be siding with here. We get a good look at the antagonist but he is made so likeable that it doesn't seem right. The protagonists were annoying and shallow.
Finally I still don't get the reason why they had to cut the tree down. It might have made more sense to check the tree first and none of this would have happened.
