Yeah I have. It's good, I read it straight through in one go.
There's a new 8 part series coming out next year of the book A Woman of Substance - the lead character in her later years being played by Brenda Blethyn.
Another book to be reread after nearly 40 years from my bookcase.

I don't live anywhere near London but I have negative associations with Daunt Books because there's a regular customer at my work who always carries one of their bags and she's a right holeNot sure if you agree.

It is lovely (I used to work round the corner from it) but this was a few years ago when my TBR was under control and I think I only ever bought a couple of books, if I remember rightly it has top ‘bookshop aesthetic’ but wasn’t laid out in a way that tempted me to buy things that interested me (they have a large travel section etc). I meant to revisit over the festive season but ran out of time.Not sure if you agree.

Anyone still on the horrible advent book? We get to burn it throw it to a lake fire it into space be done with it today!
Just picked it up from the library, it’s going to be my Boxing Day book! Seeing it everywhere, I hope it lives up to the hype
Got the last chapter to finish off when the house is Christmas Day ready later. I enjoyed Xmas Break much more than A Heart For Christmas but even that one had me totally rolling my eyes and sighing for the last couple chapters.
Yes! I’m looking forward to it being over
I am surprised you few managed to stick with it. I was out by Day 6.
I have already planned my January in terms of the books that I will be reading as I have chosen to read only murder mystery/cozy mystery books.
I noticed my library has got a shed load of books like this in.
Must be a lot of bloodthirsty people out there.
Tbh I prefer to read a cosy mystery as they are a lot more relaxing but when it comes to murder mysteries I much prefer ones that are set in the 1920s/30s as I find I can connect to them more as they have a much more whimsical feel to them.I noticed my library has got a shed load of books like this in.

I completed A Heart For Christmas. I give it at 3.5 simply because the idea of one chapter a day got me back into reading. I’ve felt so tired this year I’ve just been unable to manage anything more than audio books. However, I’ve listened to some good ones.
Plus, I didn’t find it that bad. I’ve found some of our book club choices worse than this one was.
last night I started the Sophie Kinsella book ‘what does it feel like’ and I finished it this afternoon. It made me cry.
Tonight, I’m going to start her ‘the burnout’ book.
I will 100% be staying with books I like / love next year and if the first page doesn’t grab me, then I will not plough on.

I had FOMO on the advent book after not doing it last year. I didn’t even manage to get through chapter one
I've moved on to Christmas Fling by Lindsey Kelk. Obvs because this author was recommended on here. I'm already cackling at the bitchfest.
