Countdown to 2025: Day 18

 This year I am participating in Countdown to 2025 hosted by Lynn from Lynn's Books. Today is day 18 and the prompt for today is Christmas Cards – a book with a message

So, this is going to be a bit odd, because the book I am choosing definitely has a message, but, as I mentioned in my review in the author's note where she asks people to leave a review if they could, she specifically asks that we not mention one of the themes of the novel. So I won't! But it is definitely there!

Here's the link to my review from earlier this year

Tomorrow's prompt is Christmas Carols – a book with musicians, song or instruments
