In Review: Let It Snow - Miss Known
Today I bring to you my review of Let It Snow. Since I finished it I wasn’t quite sure if I should do a review or not so I’ve been delaying to hit the publish buttom. Christmas, the day I should end reading this book. Well… it turned out to be the first book I finished in 2017. I actually got pretty disappointed with myself for not accomplish such simple goal, after all, I just needed to read. Sad story aside is time to talk about the book. It was the first book I read in English by choice, I mean not the first one ever because I had read other books for school – obligated to read – and I enjoy it. It’s a great way to improve my English and I got to get to know another writing method different from what I’m used to. After all, in the translations, they don’t change just the words, but I’ll explain later. Also, I discovered it’s going to be adapted to the big screen in November this year and it leaves me curious how it will turn out. So the book features three stories all different from each other that take place in a small city called Gracetown. Each story follows a group of teenagers and their dramas during the must joyful time of the year and is written by three different authors: Maureen Johnson, John Green and Lauren Myracle. The first one wrote by Maureen Johnson titled The Jubilee Express follows a girl who needs to go to her grandparent’s house on Christmas Eve and unfortunately, the train she’s travelling in gets stuck in the snow storm. The second story, A Cheertastic Christmas Miracle by Green, is about 3 friends and their quest to have the best Christmas Eve ever and finally, The Patron Saint of Pigs by Lauren, follows a girl having a breakdown after breaking up with her boyfriend. When I first jump into the book I knew nothing about it and was a little surprised to know that all three stories had so much in common. All the action takes place within 3 days: Christmas Eve, Christmas and Boxing Day so the stories developed really quickly which gives place for unlikely scenarios and this is one of the main characteristics of the book, if you never read this book and you plan to do it don’t...
