My answers:
1️⃣ Reread. I first read several years ago and have often revisited. When choosing books, I knew was perfect for December. Short stories are wonderful during the busy holiday season. Plus there's something for everyone. ⬇️
A low Pick. It's enjoyable and can be read without knowing the first book in the series. But for me it was lacking on atmosphere and chemistry between the characters. Even though they were written quite well, I never felt close enough to really care about them or their case.
(And yes, I need to finish my reviews before 2025!)
Still wrapping up a few Christmasy reads for #WinterGames and #ReadOuttheOld This month I've focused on books that I already owned and have checked off 15 books (some of which included multiple shorter stories), almost all of which are now in the donate box, meaning I have room for that many more Christmas books for next year!! 😂
This one was a soft pick. It's classic workaholic city girl has to go home and get caught up in small town ⬇
It has to be said, Sophie Kinsella is one of my favourite authors of all time when I need a palate Sophie writes characters that you instantly bond with and form a genuine affection for, which is truly a gift to be able to do in every book she writes. I loved the concept of people struggling with burnout going to their favourite childhood happy places to seek solace- a delightful read ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is an absolute treat. It‘s the 3rd Christmas in a row that I‘m reading this and it‘s not even very Christmasy.
Inspired by the Cinderella story, I just love the humor in this one. It‘s not laugh out loud fun, but more the tone it‘s written in. This is written by Julia Quinn‘s sister, but if you read anything by Quinn you know what I mean.
Catching up on reviews!
This was a fun Xmastime PG-13 romance story. The main character owns a used bookstore in London but heads to her hometown for a week to stay in a castle for a friend‘s wedding. Romance blossoms in the castle garden with the head gardener!
Just what I hoped it would be for this type of book at this time of year!
Read if you like interracial couples, upper class/lower class battles, or plants.

I need the third book now. I need to know how the series ends and yet I‘m praying it ends with the two people I want to see together finally happily together.
This is such an amazing addition to the series and keeps you guessing. We finally get a tiny bit of “action” although I‘m hoping for way more in the next book.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
