As Marnie gets ready to host the annual Christmas Cookie Club, she talks on the phone with her daughter, who is awaiting the results of tests done to determine the health of her unborn baby. She should learn the results of the tests by the evenings end.Marnie is hosting the cookie party as she has for many years now, expecting her twelve closest friends to spend the evening with her. As the women gather and the cookie sharing begins, so does the sharing of stories. As each woman talks about the cookies she brought, she also talks about what has happened in her life the previous year. These women laugh and cry together, supporting each other through the telling of each of their stories. It has been a hard year for some of the twelve, and they draw strength from each other as they tell their tales of love, loss, heartache and joy. Through the night, Marnie thinks about her daughter, waiting and hoping for a phone call with good news. This is the best way for Marnie to spend this important night, surrounded by these women with whom she shares such a bond.What a warm wonderful party, women gathered together to love and support each other. Finishing this book left me thinking of all of the beautiful women in my life. I think there will be many Christmas cookie clubs started by this book. There were also yummy recipes for cookies, and I will definitely be trying out some of them this Christmas.
