The Twelve Dates of Christmas
The Twelve Dates of Christmas: The Complete Novel | Lisa Dickenson
9 posts | 10 read | 5 to read
*WINNER OF THE NOVELICIOUS DEBUT OF THE YEAR AWARD* 'A perfect Christmas treat' Miranda Dickinson At thirty, Claudia's life is stale and the romance with long-term boyfriend, Seth, has disappeared. Determined to inject some festive spark back into their love life, Claudia and Seth go on their first date in a very long time. But when the night ends in disaster, Claudia suddenly finds herself facing life - and Christmas - alone. Life alone is exciting, scary and full of soon-forgotten exercise regimes and ill-advised attempts at crafting sexy underwear. It's also filling up with dates, surprisingly. With best friends Penny and Nick at her side, a surplus of festive markets, mulled wine and Christmas tunes, Claudia attempts to face all this change with gusto. One thing's for certain: this year, Christmas is going to be very different . . . This is the story of Claudia and her twelve dates of Christmas. Hilarious, uplifting and romantic, it's a story about losing love, finding love, and discovering what's been there all along. Expect Christmas sparkle, butterflies-in-your-stomach romance and a lot of very funny moments in The Twelve Dates of Christmas.

Claudia's life is stuck in a rut. She hopes to spruce her lovelife up by going on the first date in ages with her long-term boyfriend, who promptly dumps her at the Royal Opera. Now what? Wallow in self-pity? Or go on dates? Does she want a new boyfriend? Could her best friend Nick fill that gap? What would her other Bestie Penny say?

Cute and funny story about finding yourself, finding love and London in the snow.

Minus 1 star for bad editing

julesG @4thhouseontheleft Definitely! There was one date, at the Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park, I laughed so loud I woke my son. He told me off for still reading at 2am on a school night, which made me laugh even harder. 5y

I enjoy cheesy Christmas books but this one was a bit of a struggle to finish. Very predictable and I had a hard time with the main character - she has a very "woe is me" attitude for someone who has a lot to be thankful for. I would recommend a pass on this one.

This is my 9th holiday read this season and is by far my least favorite. I didn‘t like the characters and didn‘t really care for the plot... there are many other much better holiday books than this one!
