THE CHRISTMAS JOY a RIDE by MELODY CARLSON

Joy Jorgenson who is eighty-five has decided to move to Phoenix to be near her sons. Her friend and neighbor Miranda, helped Joy do a blog called Christmas Joy. There were a lot of entries, but they were able to narrow it down to six very lucky winners. As Joy prepares for her trip in a RV , she is able to convince Miranda to join her.

Off they go down the road to bring Christmas to some well deserving people. The story is a great read filled with characters that are humbled by the kindness of Joy. At each designated stop, Joy has meticulously prepared just the right items to bring a smile to those who haven't smiled in awhile. She has Christmas cookies, decorations, and special gifts for each stop. I loved reading the book that was such a heartwarming story. It helps us to remember that kindness goes a long way. Sometimes we get so busy during the holidays we forget that there are some who can't afford Christmas or don't celebrate it  because of a tragedy that happened.

If you are looking for a feel good Christmas book, you won't be disappointed in this one. Each person who was selected to win the prize from Joy's blog contest will get you in the holiday mood. It is a great reminder that everyone needs a little joy in their life.

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley for an honest review.
