Goodreads Summary:
Anne is busy preparing for Christmas when she finds a delicate key among Aunt Edie's holiday decorations. Anne soon discovers that the key unlocks a cubby in the church's Advent cabinet, which contains a beautiful sapphire ring. Did it belong to her recently deceased great-aunt? If so, why was it locked away and not among Aunt Edie's jewelry? And why is Reverend Tom tight-lipped when Anne asks him about it? Her search for the truth uncovers new revelations about her beloved great-aunt and a trail of secrecy and intrigue that stretches from cozy Blue Hill to Philadelphia.
Meanwhile, Anne is delighted when Ben and Liddie agree to participate in the church's annual Christmas play, but the production is in jeopardy when costumes go missing and the director becomes ill. Can they overcome the obstacles to ensure that the show goes on?

My Review:
The 5th book in the Blue Hill's Library series brings Christmas!
Anne finds a key that goes to the advent calendar at church when going through decorations and once she opens that day of the calendar what she finds takes all of her focus. She's also helping with the Christmas play, and decorating the library. But when it comes to decorating her own house she almost forgets about it.
Overall I few things about this book through me mainly with things suddenly (I believe this is because of each book being written by a different author). Besides that though this is a Christmas book that is more of a mystery with a side of Christmas. Anne is busy trying to find out who something they found belongs to and why it was left where it was. Add in a lying businessman and a mysterious houseguest her aunt had and everything gets rather complicated.
This wasn't my favorite book in this series so far, and it was just kind of meh for me if we're being honest. I was expecting it to be full of Holiday cheer and it wasn't exactly. I am glad I finally read it and can continue on with the series next month.
