Summary

Christmas is a time for giving - what do you do when no one gives a damn? For Zachary Weston Christmas means sleeping on a churchyard bench in the freezing snow with nothing better in his future. Thrown out of his home for being gay, he is left without money or, it seems, anywhere to go. Until a stranger shows him that some people do give a lot more than a damn. Ben Hamilton is a rookie cop in his small home town. He finds a young throwaway, fresh from the city, sleeping on a bench in the churchyard on a snowy Christmas Eve. Can he be the one to give Zachary his own Christmas miracle?

Sweet Christmas Story, Sean Crisden is Wonderful

Every bit as charming and heartwarming as I've been told all these years by those who've recommended it. I am glad I waited till I got this one in audio though, because Sean Crisden does a spectacular job performing it!

This is my favourite Christmas story to read. So full of hope and the spirit of Christmas. Whilst I do like the sound of Sean Chrisden’s voice lovely and mellow at times the narration seems a little fast. But this was not enough to spoil my enjoyment.

A lovely Christmas story

Would you listen to The Christmas Throwaway again? Why?

I will listen to it again at christmas I imagine.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Th

Any additional comments?

This book was a simple but engaging story about a young guy and a cop, I could imagine the scenes and really enjoyed listening to the story. I only hope there is a follow up at some point. The christmas spirit that is captured in a good film was captured for me in this book.
