Christmas Carols and a Cornish Cream Tea by Cressida McLaughlin

4.0

This was more christmassy and less romantic than I expected from a Christmas romance, but it actually made it more enjoyable to me, as it felt a bit different to the (many!) other similar books I read. There definitely IS a romance, but it didn't take up all of the story, it was just a natural part of it.

I enjoyed Meredith as a character right from the start, as she is very much her own person and felt well rounded and like a real person right away. It took me a bit longer to get used to Finn, but once I did I also enjoyed his company. The more I got to know him, the more I warmed up to him.

I loved how much Christmas is contained on these pages, and how the whole town is part of the story.

Only 4 stars as the end was just a bit too quickly resolved, and a tad too convenient. It did take away from the depth off the story.

Still a really great book I enjoyed thoroughly!
