Hoped for a warm-hearted festive read, but this one grated a bit. Unnatural dialogue, too many characters, and an annoying male love interest. I‘m not having much luck with my Festive reads so far this year 🫤

This was somewhere between so so and a puck. A pleasant enough story without totally engaging me.

#ChristmasNovel Immi Tolliman wants to be with the man she loves. This gentle narrative meanders along as we get to know Immi and the people she identifies as her “family“. Ms Coleman has written a heartfelt story about daily life and struggles within a beautiful rural setting. There's a strong sense of community within Ayesbury with relatable and likeable characters. Overall, the ending is satisfying in that Immi and Gray are together.
