The Christmas Swap by Melody Carlson
3.0

I was looking for a quick, cute Christmas read, and this met that criteria. It wasn’t the best thing I’ve ever read, but it was entertaining enough. Unfortunately, I could hardly stand the family in the story, though. Gillian and her mother are obnoxious. I couldn’t understand why Emma would ever be friends with Gillian because Gil is completely self-centered and annoying to be around. The friendship was quite unrealistic to me.
