Resumen del Editor

The Quinn family celebrates their most dramatic Christmas yet in this enchanting sequel to Elin Hilderbrand's best-selling Winter Street.

Christmas on Nantucket finds Winter Street Inn owner Kelley Quinn and his family busily preparing for the holiday season. Though the year has brought tragedy, the Quinns have much to celebrate: Kelley has reunited with his first wife, Margaret; Kevin and Isabelle have a new baby; and Ava is finally dating a nice guy.

But when Kelley's estranged wife, Mitzi, shows up on the island along with Kevin's devious ex-wife, Norah, and a dangerously irresistible old fling of Ava's, the inn is suddenly overrun with romantic feuds, not to mention guests. With jealousy, passion, and eggnog consumption at an all-time high, it's going to take a whole lot more than a Christmas miracle to get the Quinns - and the inn - through the holidays intact.

Nice book

I have been enjoying Elin's books on my 20 min drive to and from work.

Beautiful narration, annoying story

3.5
NARRATION 5
STORY 2

WINTER STROLL is a dysfunctional relationship lalapalooza, and not in a good way.

Unlike most of Elin Hilderbrand’s books, WINTER STROLL has a few truly unlikable, unsympathetic characters. One of them, Mitzi is supposed to be sympathetic, she’s only a train-wreck because her soldier son is MIA. I’m sorry, that’s not an excuse for things she did before we was MIA or some of her horrible, selfish behavior now. A little grace for occasionally being off is different than consistently treating others badly.

Additionally there are love triangles that make no sense, horrible communication, the jealousy of middle school girls and unlikable behavior galore.

The narration made the story, enjoyable. Erin Bennett can do male and female characters equally brilliantly as well as straight narration.

Big cast!

This one admittedly topk a session or two before i grasped the full cast of characters and their responsibilities in the story. But another fave.

Leaves You Hanging

I enjoy the storylines and love the characters. However, I do not like to be left hanging with so many unresolved issues from each book. I would continue to buy the books to follow the characters anyway. No need for the dangling endings.

Hilderbrand does it again

Any additional comments?

I love, love, love that she did a sequel to Winter Street. I was left hanging last winter after that one. I was so excited to see Winter Stroll and bought it right away and it didn't disappoint. I couldn't stop listening, even listened to the last 45 minutes at my desk while working. Hilderbrand uses the same suspenseful writing, leaving me wanting more. Way to go, Elin! I will be listening to Winter Street again on the ride home, to start the series over again.

Great sequel

This story is so detailed and intricate, leaves me wanting to run and get the 3rd book!

Liked the first one better

liked the first one better, this felt a bit more like filler of the same

I can't wait for the next one

Love Nantucket now and this family. I think I would like to hear what they are up to forever. keep the books coming.

Playing it safe

Would you consider the audio edition of Winter Stroll to be better than the print version?

Narration always in "JMO" to tell you if it's a great book or a good book! If you can listen to it with eyes closed and see it played out, it's a great book!!!

What did you like best about this story?

Of course it was happy ever after, set in the time of year! Where snow is falling but I'm on a beach with sun pounding down!

Did Erin Bennett do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Yes, I could tell that you really did read and invest her time truly in the characters she was able to make each character of their own.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, and for the most part I did. I will be with headphones markings on my face. Not that it was boring it was I was so tired and it was so early in the morning that I just couldn't fight to sleep any longer , I did not want the book to end

Can’t get enough of the Quinn family

I couldn’t wait to continue listening to the story of the Quinn family. Going on this journey with them has been a fun and wonderful experience.
