I guess you could say I was like most people. I really didn’t pay attention to the small events in my life that seem to come together by mere chance. Some say that’s heaven telling you to pay attention. Some say it’s coincidence. Whatever you call it, as you read my story, there is something you must know—I learned a secret about these small events and their true meaning. The night I buried my baby, I had a dream.
—Ann Crompton
This is a story about Christmas Eve and a mother’s journey discovering the secret behind those small events in our lives we call coincidence and from where these small events really come.

I got this book for free, so sure, it was worth the $ and nothing lost except my time.It held my interest at the lowest level. It was a fast read, so I plodded on.
Sort of depressing, but also enlightens us on how people grieve in different ways.
Somewhat confusing going back and forth in time and going back and forth between generations of characters.
In the end I was very disappointed. Too religious for me.

1224 edition by Jaron Sean Briggs Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Others will probably think I'm a dissenter but that's okay. I really didn't like this book. Sure it's about losing a child late in pregnancy. I get that. Problem is, it jumps around so much it's difficult to tell who is now telling their story. I think the only touching part of the story is when Ann discovers she's miscarried - and that's at the very beginning of the book so it's nothing I'm giving away here.
Read it and weep - either because you enjoyed the story or because you've wasted your time.
Jaron Sean Briggs' writing reveals his understanding of a woman's heart and the condition of human faith. This book has many levels of meaning, from the surface story of a woman who so deeply desires but is repeatedly denied the experience of motherhood, to the story of faith that somehow endures through or returns after it seems all is lost and there is no comfort in hope. It is clear that the author truly has compassion for those who experiece such trials and understands their long term impact.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and I will read it repeatedly for comfort as I face the challenges of life.
A great story of family, loss, and the love that binds generations. I was told to read it at Christmas, but any time really works for an uplifting story about women becoming the mothers they were meant to be.
Although I hadn't planned on reading the entire book in one day, I found myself unable to stop once I had started. The story is entertaining and well-paced; plenty of detail and development without dragging. The characters are interesting and relatable and the author weaves their intersecting stories together very well. Best of all, the underlying messages are touching, uplifting and inspiring. I just happened to read it on 12/24, but I wouldn't really classify it as a Christmas book. It would be a great read any time of year. I can't wait for my wife to read it, although being 7 months pregnant and having been through a miscarriage, she decided to wait a few months before she reads it.
This book really touched me! It made me cry a few times and I have only been touched to the point of tears while reading a couple of times in my life and I'm an avid reader. It was very well written and captured my attention immediately. I would recommend this book to anyone. It's fun to read around Christmas because of the moods created by the author. They definitely fit in nicely with the season, but it is definitely not just a Christmas story. It could be enjoyed year round. I got a copy for both of my mothers and they thoroughly enjoyed it as well!
One amazing book. I could not put it down. I really enjoyed this book.
"12.24" by Jaron Sean Briggs is, fortunately, a short story. If it went on much longer it would have become a "two boxer", meaning it would have required two boxes of tissues to get through it. Not to be too crass, 12.24 is a real tear-jerker.
It is a multi-generational, heart-rending recitation of the thoughts and emotions experienced by two women as they dealt with the grief of loss, and their unfulfilled longing to become mothers. Early on, one of the women was visiting her dying mother in the hospital, when her mother revealed she had left a letter for her daughter in her journal at home. However, she did not tell the woman where her journal was. Eventually the journal was found, the letter read, and the woman gasped in awe at what it said. We have to wait until almost the last page to know what the letter said, but once we learn, we completely understand the emotional impact it had.
I consider myself something of a crusty old curmudgeon... a tough guy who can deal with anything, and maintain an emotional detachment from any situation. This story deflated that opinion I held of myself. Many times while reading it I found myself tearing up. My breath hitched a little, and my hands started to shake. I doubt anybody could read this without becoming emotionally engaged in the lives of the various players.
The fingerprints of God are all over the lives of these two women, and both have their faith affirmed through adversity. If you don't believe in miracles, you need to read this story. It will make a believer of you.
