A great compilation of Christmas stories to dip in and out of to get in the Christmas spirit, but when you don’t have time or energy to invest in a longer story,

A cute little collection of festive stories that could be picked up and put down as required. I really enjoyed them
I enjoyed this cozy, Christmassy feel-good book. Loved the story and enjoyed the warm wintery feeling I got from.this book.
This was a fun book to read. It offers twenty short Christmas stories, some with more romantic themes than others. All of the stories are set in England, many in Chelmsford, Essex. The stories are engaging and entertaining. I highly recommend this book to other fiction readers. I received an ARC of this book from Net Galley, and the opinion expressed is strictly my own.
