Christmas in Peachtree Bluff by Kristy Woodson Harvey

fast-paced

5.0

This was the first book I have ever read for the Peachtree bluff series and I loved it. This family is truly one of a kind and I loved how supportive but real they were with each other. Felt like a real family for a change, and not something that was just having drama to have drama, but instead had real problems and mishaps that they were addressing and dealing with together. 

Christmas in Peachtree Bluff follows the Murphy family as they get ready for Christmas, and while they all have big plans, those plans end up changing quickly due to a hurricane of the century happening. 

Overall I loved this book. I loved seeing all the different pov's from all the different Murphy women and the lives they had created. For the first time ever I didn't have a favorite, and I loved all of them equally and enjoyed seeing what would happen in their lives next as they all lived such different lives. The fact that this was set around Christmas made the book even better, as we saw the entire family come together to rebuild and spend time with one another. 

While this is the third or fourth book in the series I didn't feel like I was missing anything with having not read the first books in the series. I was able to jump right in and just read what the family was doing now and enjoy it. Having said that though I do think I will be going back and starting the series from the beginning because of how much I enjoyed reading about them.
