Review

Firstly I have to apologise for the amount of times I say Christmas in this review and express my love for its gorgeous cover.

This was my first Christmas read of the year and it is more than safe to say that it has definitely got me in the Christmas mood. This was a great first Christmas read and I now cannot wait until Christmas!

I particularly liked that this story was set in Cornwall, which has a lot of summer childhood memories for me, so to get a little experience of Christmas by the beach was truly wonderful. Thea has a big family like me and although they are a little unconventional in this story and their reason for having a family Christmas in Cornwall, I really felt like I could resonate with them and especially with Thea feeling a bit on the outside of things.

This was incredibly enjoyable, entertaining and enough to get anyone in the Christmas mood! I don't think a novel has ever made me feel this Christmassy so early on in November! The setting, the mood the images, just everything had that magical Christmas, frosty feel to it. Judy is an expert at setting the Christmas scene. I now really want to experience Cornwall at Christmas.

If you are unsure of which Christmas read to start then this is definitely the one!
