About the Book
"Originally published in hardcover in the United States by Ballantine Books ... in 2005." -- Verso.Book Synopsis
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Kristin Hannah is beloved by readers around the world for her unique blend of powerful emotion and exquisite storytelling. In Comfort & Joy, she offers a modern-day fairy tale--the story of a woman who gets a miraculous chance at happiness.
Joy Candellaro once loved Christmas more than any other time of the year. Now, as the holiday approaches, she is at a crossroads in her life; recently divorced and alone, she can't summon the old enthusiasm for celebrating. So without telling anyone, she buys a ticket and boards a plane bound for the beautiful Pacific Northwest. When an unexpected detour takes her deep into the woods of the Olympic rainforest, Joy makes a bold decision to leave her ordinary life behind--to just walk away--and thus begins an adventure unlike any she could have imagined. In the small town of Rain Valley, six-year-old Bobby O'Shea is facing his first Christmas without a mother. Unable to handle the loss, Bobby has closed himself off from the world, talking only to his invisible best friend. His father Daniel is beside himself, desperate to help his son cope. Yet when the little boy meets Joy, these two unlikely souls form a deep and powerful bond. In helping Bobby and Daniel heal, Joy finds herself again. But not everything is as it seems in quiet Rain Valley, and in an instant, Joy's world is ripped apart, and her heart is broken. On a magical Christmas Eve, a night of impossible dreams and unexpected chances, Joy must find the courage to believe in a love--and a family--that can't possibly exist, and go in search of what she wants . . . and the new life only she can find.Review Quotes

Can't belive how this book started! I was immediatly drawn into the book by the cover. I honestly thought this is so pretty and i expected it to become a Hallmark vibe but NO WAY! This became a full blown OMG! What ? No way kinda book! I think its Amazing and you should just take the Christmas Book with a Thill Jump if you havent yet.

It was sweet, but not on the same level as The Nightingale
I got this because I LOVED the Nightingale, but this book was a bit too cheesy and overly descriptive to me, like rushing subtext. But I don’t regret reading it. Kind of Hallmark-Christmas-movie-esque.

Comfort & Joy novel.
The story is good but the book itself is not nice. Pages are extremely thin, the cover is not quality. To charge $12.99 for this paperback is over priced. I honestly would not have purchased it due to quality. This is worse then Mass Market paperbacks.
