Lauren Myracle has the unenviable job of following John’s and Maureen’s stories: how on earth do you top those two? She does admirably: she not only had the story with the best title - “The Patron Saint of Pigs”, she told a very sweet story of a girl - Addie - dealing with the after effects of a mistake she made - cheating on her boyfriend - and she managed to tie in all three stories in a very touching, very, alright, Christmassy way.Ī great collection of stories, great for both fans of the authors and of YA romances alike. An ill-timed storm on Christmas Eve buries. The best part was his exploration of “happy middles”. Let It Snow is a collection of three moving holiday romances by John Green, Lauren Myracle and Maureen Johnson. John’s romance isn’t swoon-worthy, but it’s very John Green: sweet, yes, but with just the right touch of cynicism. Of course, it isn’t easy (it’s a blizzard, for goodness sake!), and of course, there’s romance along the way. Tobin, JP, and the Duke head out - yes, in the blizzard - to make it to the Waffle House so the guys can drool over the cheerleaders. They get a call from Keun, who’s working at the Waffle House in town, after the cheerleaders from Maureen’s story invade the store.

John Green takes over in the next story, “A Cheertastic Christmas Miracle,” writing from the point of view of Tobin, who’s just hanging on Christmas Eve with two of his best friends, JP and the Duke (who’s a girl). Let’s just say that not only does Maureen have a gift for comedic writing, she writes the most swoon-worthy kisses. Off the train Jubliee goes (who wants to be stuck on a derailed train with a bunch of cheerleaders? Not Jubilee.), and into the path of Stuart. You just have to.) The train only gets as far as a small town in North Carolina, where it gets stuck because of a blizzard. (Point of fact: you have to love Maureen for including a smorgasbord in this story. Maureen Johnson gets the book started with the first of the three novellas, “The Jubilee Express.” In it, our main character, Jubilee, is thrust upon a train bound for Florida because her parents, Christmas-village collecting nuts, are arrested on Christmas Eve, throwing a wrench into Jubilee’s best-laid plans to go to her boyfriend’s family’s Christmas Smorgasbord.
