How many of you fellow book lovers are gonna be reading the “A Heart for Christmas” advent book?

Please like post if so! I need to know if I need to buy it and of course I’ll always find the answer to that on this thread 😁

I loved last years advent read-along.
I’ve got A Heart for Christmas and Xmas Break downloaded ready to do as advent calendars. I took advantage of the 99p offer for A Heart for Christmas and the KU version of Xmas Break. I throughly enjoyed doing the read along last year and can’t wait to do it again this year!

Am currently listening to an audiobook which the reader says she thought might be boring but she couldn't put down.
The first paragraph I was 😳 - I'm amazed they managed to keep that hushed up!

I was just coming on to see if there’s an advent book this year! I’ve just bought it on kindle! Can’t wait for the read along again! 🎄

I might risk it for 99p but I looked at A Heart for Christmas on Goodreads and was disappointed 😟

Blackwells offering a book at a reduced price every hour till 8pm 😬 I'm trying not to succumb to anything else today (Gollancz have a 40% sale on nearly everything and I fell victim yesterday), but it's going to be tough.

After reading and loving bury our bones in the midnight soil by VE Schwab, I was looking forward to reading Addie La rue ( after having it on my TBR for years) but i’m not really enjoying it! Feel like its dragging on 😞

I dont feel anything for the main character or Henry either

definitely leave it! i dislike it so much that it’s genuinely making me angry 🤣

i’m going to slam dunk it into my tesco donation bag from a great height but even then i feel like i should put a warning message in the front cover for whoever might pick it up.

I’ve started In Memoriam this week for a book club. I’m only 50 or so pages in but I’m really not in the mood for it. I want to be reading Christmas fluff and cosy mysteries

i love in memoriam with EVERY FIBRE OF MY SOUL but agree it’s not the right book for this time of year. give it a chance next year 🥲
