The Christmas Surprise | Jenny Colgan
25 posts | 15 read | 7 to read
Includes mouth-watering recipes Rosie Hopkins, newly engaged, is looking forward to an exciting year in the little sweetshop she owns and runs. But when fate strikes Rosie and her boyfriend, Stephen, a terrible blow, threatening everything they hold dear, it's going to take all their strength and the support of their families and their Lipton friends to hold them together. After all, don't they say it takes a village to raise a child?

I‘m now caught up on my January read posts. 🤓

I like Colgan‘s books and this wrapped up this series nicely. Another series completed.

I didn‘t open the box before because I thought it was part of one of the swaps packages 🤦🏽‍♀️

I didn‘t expect this, thank you so much @Chrisdyreadit I wanted to read this book, ready to try the coffee this Christmas weekend with the snacks. If you see that one chocolate 🍫 is missing is that I couldn‘t resist to try one😋but the rest and the popcorn will be the perfect snacks for December 25th. The card is so pretty. Thank you 😘🎄💚❤️💚

Chrissyreadit 😘 I‘m glad you like everything! Merry Christmas ❄️🤍❄️ 2y

There is something about #WinterGames that makes me break my usual reading rules, like reading the 3rd book in the Rosie Hopkins series before reading books 1 and 2. I feel like a reading rebel! I probably won't make a habit of it, but it worked out fine and I really loved Rosie and Stephen's road to parenthood and their Christmas surprise. #MerryReaders @Clwojick 26pts.

Bookworm54 I love that you are rebelling against your reading rules for these games 🤣❤️ 4y

I got a lot of reading done yesterday! Listened to audiobooks as I cleaned and finished decorating the Christmas Tree, and also did a little bit of Christmas shopping at the book store and picked up a few ordered gifts, plus sent off my #JolabokaflodSwap gift, so I'm feeling full of Christmas cheer! I might possible DNF Murder at Christmas, but I'll try more today. #WinterGames2020 #MerryReaders @Clwojick 991pts.

This was a sweet end to the trilogy. I just really loved these characters and the little village of Lipton. Jenny Colgan‘s books always put me in a good mood.

Not the tagged book. This one isn‘t in the Litsy database. I admit-I‘m a sucker for a beefcake cover and can usually go along with the story but this one is not my thing! I can‘t bring myself to care what happens to the main characters and now they‘re stranded in a stereotypical podunk town (and not in a good way), they‘re pretty busy fighting with each other and they have zero chemistry. Gonna have to bail on this.

Light lunchtime reading with a cupcake and Hershey kisses cause today is the Monday of all Mondays right now. I‘m on work day 8 if 8 and am desperately in need of not coming to BN for a day.

Another Colgan Christmas novel, down the hatch! Somewhat predictable, but in a good kind of way. Loved this third installment in the Rosie Hopkins' Sweetshop series!!

Another Christmas novel (AND my trusty friend, Jenny Colgan). I've never been one for Holiday fiction purposefully read around the holidays, but I must say that it's kind of getting me in the mood a bit early for once...
