Resumen del Editor

West Virginia 1906.

Ana Popesque arrives at Miss Ellwood's boarding house in Pine Glen to find she's boarding with a couple of very chatty housemates. The constant laughter and gossip make it difficult to focus on her violin practice for her upcoming Christmas Symphony. It's not until the other girls leave for Christmas break that Ana is left with the peace quiet of Pine Cottage. But in that silence, she hears beautiful violin music coming from the boarder downstairs. Before long, her heart strings are so drawn by his melodious ballads, she's compelled to discover what lies behind such sweet, sorrowfully beautiful music.

A feel good Christmas story of love, acceptance, and joyful reunions.

Learning to live and love alongside music...

Christmas at Pine Cottage by Renee Riva and narrated by Susan J. Iannucci is a delightful Christmastime listen (really any time of the year). I recommend if you’re looking for something upbeat, light, with a hint of holidays and love.
What’s it about? Ana’s family is unable to afford her a visit home during the holiday, so she stays at the boarding house where she meets a fellow musician and learns more than she ever thought possible. Learning to live and love with music being at the center.

The narrator, Susan J. Iannucci, did a wonderful job. Easy-to-listen-to and smooth.

Overall I highly recommend. This is not my typical listen and I absolutely enjoyed it, ended up listening straight through.

Parental guidance/trigger warnings: there is a mild religious undertone but it’s not preachy (I’m not religious and it didn’t rub me the wrong way). I hesitate to say anything more due to spoilers so will say a couple deaths due to fire accident but not told in detail. No swearing.

Super Sweet Story

This was such a sweet story to listen to. Christmas at Pine Cottage made me feel in the Christmas spirit even though it is the middle of June.

Ana is residing at a boarding house over a Christmas holiday when she befriends another boarder who plays the violin. The relationship they form is super special. I loved the 1900 time period as well. Such a sweet Christmas novella to listen to whether it is Christmas time or any other time of year.

Susan J. Iannucci does a fantastic job telling the story.

Great Quick Read

Christmas at Pine Cottage was another great read by Renee Riva. Ana has arrived at Miss Ellwood's boarding house but doesn't like her chatty housemates. She tries to focus on her violin practice for the Christmas Symphony but they make it hard to do. The girls leave for Christmas and in the quiet she hears beautiful violin music. I loved reading Ana's story. This was a great read and I can't wait to read more by Renee Riva.
