I nearly gave up on this in the first few pages because of the wildly descriptive beginning. Then I read this was adapted from a play by Keane, so I was able to see that as the stage directions for Act 1, Scene 1. And then the action started. The love triangle was not for me, but I very much liked Aunt Anna Rose.

lil1inblue This is so tempting. I would be interested depending on the reading schedule. 2w
WildAlaskaBibliophile @lil1inblue I hear you. I want to keep it low key, especially since I have other reading goals and groups I belong to. At the most, I'm thinking about 1 book a month, but more likely 1 book every couple of months. ??? It'll be a democratic process as much as possible, so the club works well for its members. 2w
lil1inblue @WildAlaskaBibliophile I can do that. I'm in! 2w

TheKidUpstairs I would be interested if it was every other or every couple months. I do love translated literature, I just don't always have time for all the books I want to read! 1w
Jari-chan If it's every now and then I'd be in 🤩 1w

I wish I hadn't waited so long to read this. What a delightful, old-fashioned country Christmas read. The author describes a Christmas from her childhood and all the exciting preparations involved, with all the magic and innocence that only a child at Christmas can bring. 🎄 ❄️
