Red and orange knitted hat next to the novel Vianne by Joanne Harris

I read the novel VIANNE by @joannechocolat.bsky.social in one sitting today, even though I'd had it from the library for quite a while. I didn't know why today. Then I found that December 4 is a special day in this novel. ❤️ The book was magic and I'll reread CHOCOLAT now.

A couple of final festive #bookreviews: So This Is Christmas by Helen Rolfe and One Snowy Day by Shari Low I know it's after Christmas now but I just thought I'd share a couple of mini reviews of the last couple of festive reads I finished. Like most Christmas books, they can be read at any time of the year or you can make a note for next year if you like the sound of either of them and prefer to read seasonally.

That was then, but there is a new free offer on the ebook this weekend (19th, 20th, 21st September).

Thanks Jane for posting this - I'd better use the opportunity to confess this story is set in the middle of Covid lockdown - some readers didn't like this but maybe this will have worn off with the passage of time. Anyway, it fits into its place in the series.

All my books are standalone but some are connected by the fictional village of Willowbrook- including my latest book Christmas at the French Shop.
Do you recognise the village I drew inspiration from in real life? 📸

If this is your cosy Christmassy kind of vibe you might like my new book. Christmas at the French Repair Shop is out now.

People who dismiss e-books or audiobooks as being somehow less worthy or less meaningful than physical books are missing the point of books. Books are not ink and paper, just as human beings are not defined by their physicality. Books are connections; emotions; ideas; just like their creators.
