Summary
Welcome back to Evergreen，
the town built on Christmas wishes…
And learn what happens
after one snow-globe wish comes true。
Life is going great for Hannah， really。 She’s fallen in love with her best friend， her brother is getting married， and she’s looking forward to another festive Christmas in Evergreen。 Still， between her job， taking charge of the choir， and being the town’s jill-of-all-trades， she’s feeling uninspired…especially when Elliot starts to question his own role in the town。
Hannah finds fresh inspiration in the brand-new Evergreen Christmas Museum， and she volunteers for their storytelling project。 When she interviews her fellow Evergreenians， however， she learns that not everyone wants the museum around; specifically Mr。 Cooper who owns a third of the building。 As Hannah finds herself with more and more responsibilities， and as her relationships with Elliot and her family grow strained， she starts to wonder about what she really wants。 Can her love and newly-found purpose survive the changes that loom after the holidays are over？

Hallmark Christmas movies are my jam， so you know I was all in and ready for the warm cozy goodness。 This is a very typical Christmas romance but that's exactly what I wanted to it's a win。 I didn't initially realize this was the 4th book in a series。 I didn't feel lost or like I was missing something important to the story， they do features different couples， but I did feel I was missing some of the sense of community or familiarity I would have felt。I love the small town community with its sma Hallmark Christmas movies are my jam， so you know I was all in and ready for the warm cozy goodness。 This is a very typical Christmas romance but that's exactly what I wanted to it's a win。 I didn't initially realize this was the 4th book in a series。 I didn't feel lost or like I was missing something important to the story， they do features different couples， but I did feel I was missing some of the sense of community or familiarity I would have felt。I love the small town community with its small shops and quirky residents。 This is Hannah and Elliot's story and I loved their connection。 Side note - I need to know where I can find a place like Evergreen， I was made for a place known as Christmas Village。 。。。more

The fourth book in a series about Evergreen， Vermont， Hannah finds purpose in running the town’s new museum， while her boyfriend Elliot wants to open a store in Boston。 Can their love survive their competing dreams？I did not realize before requesting this book that not only was this book 4 in a series， but the first 3 books were written by a different author。 This book could technically be a standalone， but I didn’t feel connected to the characters the way I probably would have if I had read the The fourth book in a series about Evergreen， Vermont， Hannah finds purpose in running the town’s new museum， while her boyfriend Elliot wants to open a store in Boston。 Can their love survive their competing dreams？I did not realize before requesting this book that not only was this book 4 in a series， but the first 3 books were written by a different author。 This book could technically be a standalone， but I didn’t feel connected to the characters the way I probably would have if I had read the first 3 books。 I was not a fan of the narrator for the audiobook; maybe I would have liked Hannah more if she didn’t have such an annoying voice。 This book was just OK for me。 If you are a fan of the series， though， don’t let my indifference to the book dissuade you from reading it！Many thanks to NetGalley for providing me an audio ARC of this book。 。。。more

Contemporary realistic fiction。 I was excited to see this audiobook as I have listened to this whole series on audio， and immediately noticed that it was by a different author than the previous 3 stories。 While the feel of the town was there and the characters returned， this one didn't feel as magical。 Hannah and Elliott got together in a previous book， so it seemed weird to circle back to them。 I have not watched any of the Hallmark movies that the series is based on。The town of Evergreen， Verm Contemporary realistic fiction。 I was excited to see this audiobook as I have listened to this whole series on audio， and immediately noticed that it was by a different author than the previous 3 stories。 While the feel of the town was there and the characters returned， this one didn't feel as magical。 Hannah and Elliott got together in a previous book， so it seemed weird to circle back to them。 I have not watched any of the Hallmark movies that the series is based on。The town of Evergreen， Vermont is preparing for the Christmas season with a few twists this year-- the mayor Michelle is getting married on December 23rd， and the town is transforming the old hat factory into a town museum to have its grand opening during the Christmas season。 In the midst of all of this， Hannah and Elliott are trying to take their relationship to the next level。 Unfortunately， they have different ideas of what （or more specifically where） that next level is。 Can Hannah pause her never-ending agenda to have the conversation she needs to with Elliott？ 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 As far as feel-good Christmas reads go， this one was fine。 It was a cute little story wrapped up in a neat holiday package。 I can see how it would make a great Hallmark movie。 As far as romances go， it was a little blah。 The couple was already together， but she was waiting for a proposal。 Even in the end， there was no proposal。 The couple simply decided to stay together。 It implies that a proposal may be coming later though。 With all of that said， I read this as a stand-alone novel。 I haven't re As far as feel-good Christmas reads go， this one was fine。 It was a cute little story wrapped up in a neat holiday package。 I can see how it would make a great Hallmark movie。 As far as romances go， it was a little blah。 The couple was already together， but she was waiting for a proposal。 Even in the end， there was no proposal。 The couple simply decided to stay together。 It implies that a proposal may be coming later though。 With all of that said， I read this as a stand-alone novel。 I haven't read the rest of the series。 This was an audiobook from Netgalley。 Again， it was a happy， seasonal read， but nothing spectacular。 。。。more

The book is always better， but when the book is based on a favorite movie the line is thin。 The latest Christmas in Evergreen adaptation is delightful。 The movie magic is evident in every page。 If you loved the movie， the book is better。

Christmas in Evergreen is my favorite recurring Hallmark Christmas movie series。 This is a novelization of the movie that came out in 2020。 The book was just as charming as the movie， and it’s nice to get more internal insight than just what we see in the movie。 If you’re looking for a sweet and low stakes Christmas romance， then you might like this book and the movies as well。Thank you NetGalley and Hallmark for the ARC of the audiobook。 I really enjoyed the narrator as well。

What is there to say about a Christmas in Evergreen that hasn’t already been said？！ This is such a wonderful book that gives you the story of Hannah and Elliot。 I have followed along with all the other love stories and have waiting to hear about Hannah’s。 She is such a loving person that cares for everybody so deeply。 She definitely deserves a happily ever after。

All the sights， sounds and smells of Christmas are alive in Evergreen as well as a few sparks of love。 One such couple is Hannah and Elliott who have discovered their love for each other this past year but there are secrets they are keeping from each other。 They will need to dig deep into their own selves before they are able to be honest with each other in order to make this season ring。
