Pupcakes: A Christmas Novel | Annie England Noblin

Mehso-so

This one could've been a pick. But the narrator's accent was so irritating, the constant reminders of the location (yes, you're from Jonesboro and now live in Memphis - you've mentioned it at least 37 times), the repeated unrealized held breaths, laughs, tears, etc. just kept me from enjoying what was a pretty ok story.

Traci1 @Bookgoil I think if I had read it in print, I'd have enjoyed it a lot more. The narrator just irritated me so much. The story was actually decent. Though not really Christmasy. 3y
Ruthiella “Unrealized held breath” drives me NUTS. It‘s so over used. 😖 3y

This was way cuter than I expected. Realistic it was not, but it was adorable and fun. It would make a terrific Christmas movie (a little too racy for Hallmark, maybe).

I enjoyed the original CiE story much more than this one. The small Christmas town setting is still just as charming as ever, but setting alone can't carry a story. The story was very blah, and adding in a bunch of side plots didn't help. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either.
Nearly finished with my Emma and Pietro #audiostitching project.

Bookgoil Love your craft! Sorry t he book wasn‘t stellar! 3y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick The needlepoint is coming along wonderfully. Sorry the book was a meh. I listened to the first one a few days ago and even that one was just OK. 3y

Murder, She Wrote: Murder in Season | Jessica Fletcher, Jon Land

A pretty good MSW book. This one was very festive, and I liked that so many "regulars" returned for a visit, like Harry, Grady, and Amos. I'd guessed the ending fairly early on, but it was still fun watching everything fall into place.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This was superb storytelling from beginning to end. If you are at all a fan of Holmes, I highly recommend this one.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 3y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Yay BINGO! The book sounds good but I should probably read at least one actual Sherlock book first. 3y
Traci1 @Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick it's probably blasphemous, but I enjoyed this one more than the one Conan Doyle I've read (Sign of the Four). 🤫 3y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick You're secret is safe with me. Sometimes it's just that old fashioned writing style that makes it hard for me to enjoy a classic. 3y
Clwojick 🌲 🙌 Way to go! 👏❤ 3y

Andrew65 Think that often happens, if you read too many close together in a series, you need to then switch to another series. 3y

Traci1 @Andrew65 yeah, I enjoy the series, but they're starting to run together. I think a little breather will be good. 3y
Traci1 @Bookgoil thanks 😊 3y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Sameness is why I tend to hop around with my reads. 3y

⭐⭐⭐
I think if you like gentle, somewhat religious, Christmas romances, you'd like this one. The writing was good, but it's just not my cup of cocoa. I listened to it on audio, and the narration wasn't bad. Overall, it was ok but could have been shorter.

I hadn't read any of this series before, but this one was terrific. I've already downloaded 2 more of the Christmas ones from the library. I definitely recommend it. (And unlike your book, @TheAromaofBooks there are puppies in this one 😄)
