1: Warm, beautiful Christmas story
My mother and I each have a copy of this wonderful book and have read it every Christmas for many years. The Substitue Guest brings alive warm images of Christmas, contains a great story and celebrates Christmas' true meaning.

2: Intense Inspiration
I received this book when I was in the hospital. I was skeptical. I was a freshman in highschool, and this author was "really old." I mean, come on, how could I enjoy a book written in the 30's? Come to find out, in it was my ideal romance. This is an amazing book and is in my top 2 favorite. I suggest it to everyone. It got me through hard times, and I love to read it over and over again.

3: All Hill's books deserve 5 stars
Grace Livingston Hill's books remain popular despite their age. The Christian message is strong and the romances are delightful and tasteful. I love Substitute Guest because it has a Christmas theme. If you have never read GLH and you like Christian romance, these are a must. Despite being old fashioned, they are a wonderful read.

4: Substitute Guest
The setting is a remote farm during a Christmas Eve blizzard. Into the home of father, mother, daughter and son comes a stranded traveler. How he ends up staying with them over Christmas, in the place of an invited guest who did not come, makes for a lovely, warm story that describes the celebration of Christmas as it should be. I wanted to move in with this family! The perfect Christmas story.

5: Faith and Character
I loved this book and its characters. If you ever wanted to accidentally stumble into another world than your own, you would do good to meet the family that Alan Monteith meets. May you meet the Savior that Alan comes to know.
