Great book. I enjoyed Reading it. The characters and plot were interesting life like and easy to connect with.

This was a good story about family life. It was an easy read and I felt like I personally knew all the characters. I got invested in each individual's situation and wanted everything to work out for them. This is the perfect beach read. Definitely recommend.

The Beautiful Little Things is follows a family after the loss of the matriarch of the family. The story is beautiful and heartbreaking and shows the depth of grief and how loss can effect everyone differently. The last part of the book was the must heartwrenching and I found myself wanting to cry at the ending as it was simply beautiful.

A beautifully written emotional book. It will make you cry.
The characters are believable and they had good backstories. It is uplifting.

Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for giving me a free eARC of this book to read in exchange for my review!

I received this as an eARC but unfortunately was too late to read it before it was archived. I was able to read it elsewhere after it was published so I wanted to come back and provide my review.

This was a sad but beautiful story about family, loss and grief. If you like a good heartbreaking read, this is the one for you!

Thank you to NetGalley for this eARC and apologies for the delayed review!

This is a beautiful family story. Sorry for the late review. This was a moving story about sisters and their grief.

Thanks for the advanced copy!

Melissa Hill’s The Beautiful Little Things is a stunning, heartfelt and highly relevant tale about a family facing grief. Following the death of Cathy, a woman who's family has always leaned on for emotional and practical guidance, Romy and Joanna, the Moore sisters must find their own path through life in her absence.

Throughout the book, the sisters use Cathy's loving memories of family life to reignite joy in the difficult times and reignite hope in their lives. Written in Hill’s evocative prose and set against a stunning backdrop of the Irish mountains, The Beautiful Little Things is an exquisitely bittersweet story of family love and togetherness.

This was a beautiful story about dealing with grief after losing a loved one. It was a messy story about family but this book makes you realize how important is to lean on your family and cherish the present.

An excellent story about family, loss and moving on. Melissa Hill is a wonderful writer and I’ve enjoyed most if her books. Her last couple have been the best.

It’s Christmas and the family are gathering in their childhood home near Dublin for the usual festivities not knowing that this is to be the last one. For me it was all too winsome and cosy with caricature characters with no substance. A few touching moments here and there for those who like that sort of thing and a bit repetitive. It’s not the sort of book which plays in your mind long after you’ve finished it. Might have been better had it been shortened by about a quarter. It will appeal to those people who love anything set in Ireland!

This was such a well written story. All the feelings of the characters were so real and what they went though was told perfectly. I read this book very quickly. Thank you for the arc.

This could have been a very sad book to read, however it didn’t read like that. It felt emotional, life affirming and a celebration of the ups and downs of family life.
It follows the 3 grown up children of a gorgeous lady who is diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. And how the family coped with losing the pivotal member of their family. But not in a sad way, it vibes with messy, vivid, fun family moments. Which balances out the sad times perfectly.
I really enjoyed it.

I was absolutely captivated reading 'The Beautiful Little Things' by Melissa Hill. It broke my heart and it gave me hope. It is an emotional read but one that is very, very well written.

An easy Christmas read but it shows the harder side of family and holidays after the lose of a loved one who is a major part of the holiday traditions. The story is well written and the characters are easy to relate to.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to read this wonderful heartfelt story.

Melissa hill is one of my top 10 authors couldn’t believe that I was able to read this early. A sad story that had me in tears but amazing at the same time. Definitely wasn’t disappointed can’t wait for her next book

The Beautiful Little Things by @melissahillbooks another @netgalley read. This is about a family that torn apart by grief and I don’t really want to say much more than that about what it’s about as I do t want to ruin it and I actually as always didn’t read what it was about and I think that’s what made this even more wonderful, going in without a preconceived idea. I have read a few books my Melissa Hill but not for a very long time and just happened to come across this on NetGalley and picked it purely because it was an author I vaguely knew and the cover looked appealing. This is such a great unassuming book, that without a doubt will hit you in the heart and give you the feels, as well as a few tears, so keep the tissues near. As I’ve said it’s about a families grief and the repercussions that grief has on even the strongest a#and closest of families. Yet it deals with this subject with grace, realism, calmness and sensitivity. It doesn’t sugar coat it, like many books would, yes there are some parts that we would all like to do before the inevitable happens yet this adds to making this book one not to be missed. This book for me made me remember the beautiful little things, memories came flooding back of things that get lost in the everyday, of those spent with love ones that are no longer here. It that respect it’s such an emotive and relatable book, it made me laugh and it made cry because in remembering those beautiful little things you actually come to realise they are the things you miss the most and that in turn make them the big things and that in turn makes you want to appreciate those little things a little bit more. In not sugar coating things it shows that all families aren’t perfect, there’s no certain way to deal with grief, each individual family member is dealing with their own grief their own way, and sometimes clashes happen yet at the heart your still family. I know this isn’t always the case but it’s real for this family, in this book and because of that it works for them and makes the characters feel real. It’s such a simplistic book in many ways but it’s got such heart and soul. A page turner and one I will be recommending⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book was so wonderful. The emotional connection the author creates with with characters was impeccable. A heartfelt story about siblings learning to cope with the grief of losing their mother.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC. All opinions expressed are completely my own.

A great heartbreaking book about three adult siblings dealing with their mother's death and how they cope, or not, with it and the fallout amongst themselves. Told over two Christmases the first when their mother keeps it to herself to give them all one last perfect Christmas and the second where they are facing their first Christmas without her and have all fallen apart.

Another great book by Melissa Hill with true understanding of siblings and how situations are dealt with and how the people you are closest to can be completely misread
